We need to collect your contact details and details about your dog and the nature of any problems you may be having. If you are a client of our behaviour clinic, we will also need details of your veterinary surgeon.

 

We may process images or videos of your pet on our secret Facebook group (which is only accessible to clients of Progressing Partnerships by invitation from one of the Partners) or our website. We will only share photos and videos that you have agreed to us sharing.

 

Bank details or payment card details are never requested or held.

What is the lawful basis for processing your personal data?
