Your privacy matters

Privacy policy

We want you to feel confident sharing only what is needed when you contact Lodge Group Care. This policy explains what we collect through our care enquiry forms, why we use it and the choices you have.

Last updated: August 2026

What this policy covers

This policy explains how Lodge Group Care UK Ltd handles personal information submitted through this website, including care assessment enquiries and requests for a call back.

Lodge Group Care UK Ltd is the organisation responsible for this information. Our contact address is Victoria House, 199 South Street, Romford, Essex RM1 1QA. If you have a question about privacy, email info@lodgegroup.co.uk.

Information we collect

For a care assessment enquiry, we may collect your name, phone number, email address, postcode or area, the type and urgency of support you are exploring, your preferred contact method and any preferred appointment details.

The optional free-text field is intended for a short summary only. Please do not include detailed medical histories, medication lists, NHS numbers, financial information or other sensitive details in the online form. You can discuss information about health or care needs directly with our team after we have responded.

How we use your information

We use enquiry information to contact you, understand which service may be suitable, arrange or prepare for a care assessment, and keep an appropriate record of the enquiry. We may also use it to respond to a safeguarding concern or comply with a legal obligation where that is necessary.

We do not sell enquiry information or use it to send marketing messages just because you submitted this form. We will only send marketing where we have a lawful basis and any consent required.

Our legal basis and sensitive information

We generally process an enquiry because it is necessary to take steps at your request before providing services, or because we have a legitimate interest in responding to enquiries and managing our services. If you choose to share information about health or care needs, we handle it in line with the applicable UK data-protection rules for special-category information.

The online enquiry form is not an emergency or secure clinical service. Do not use it to report an immediate risk. Call 999 in an emergency or contact the relevant emergency or health service.

Who may receive it

Enquiry information is available to authorised members of our care and administration teams who need it to respond. We may use trusted technology providers to operate our website and store or process information on our behalf, with appropriate contractual and security arrangements.

We may disclose information where the law requires it, or where sharing is necessary to protect someone from serious harm. We do not share it with unrelated organisations for their own marketing.

How long we keep it

We keep enquiry information only for as long as it is needed to respond, manage any resulting assessment or service relationship, meet legal and regulatory requirements, and resolve complaints or disputes. We review records and securely delete or anonymise them when they are no longer needed.

Your rights

Depending on the circumstances, you may have rights to ask for a copy of your information, correction of inaccurate information, deletion, restriction of use, or to object to certain processing. You can ask a question or make a request by emailing info@lodgegroup.co.uk.

You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) if you are unhappy with how we handle your information. Visit ico.org.uk for details.

Keeping information safe

We use access controls and appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal information. No online transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure, which is why we ask you to keep sensitive medical and financial details out of the initial enquiry form.

Cookies and your choices

This website uses essential browser storage to remember basic settings, such as your cookie choice, and to support the website’s operation. Essential storage does not require consent.

We do not currently place optional analytics cookies. If you allow optional analytics, the website may send consent-gated analytics events from approved public pages, such as a page view or an AI-referral category, to the configured analytics data layer. Session storage may be used to avoid counting the same AI-referral category more than once during a visit. We do not send the full referrer URL or use this for care enquiry handling. You can change your choice at any time using the Cookie settings button.
