NeuroClinicians Privacy Notice

Last Updated at : 27-Oct-2026

The short version

We only use your information to give you the service you ask for, and to keep you safe. Here is what matters most:

  • Free assessment. No doctor sees it. You get general information, not a personal rating. We only use your answers if you say yes, and you can ask us to delete them at any time.
  • Paid report. Our software writes a first draft. A consultant neurologist you choose reads all your answers, can change or delete any part of the draft, and signs the report in their own name.
  • We never use your health answers for adverts. Not to choose what we send you, and not to follow you around the internet.
  • We never sell your information.
  • You are in control. You can see your information, correct it, ask us to delete it, or ask a person to look at your report again for free.

If you are having a medical emergency, call 999 or go to A&E. This website is not watched all the time, and we will not phone you about your results.

1. Who we are

NeuroClinicians is run by NEURO CLINICIANS LTD, a company registered in England and Wales (company number 17161109). In this notice, “we” and “us” means that company.

We run the website, the assessment, the software that drafts reports, your account, bookings and payments. We are responsible for your information when we do those things. In data protection law, this makes us a “controller”.

We do not give medical care. Your report and any consultation come from an independent consultant neurologist and the clinic they work from. They are responsible for the medical opinion in your report (see section 5).

2. What we collect

We only ask for what we need. If a question does not change what we tell you, we take it out.

No, but see section 10

What we do not collect. We do not ask about your ethnicity. We never use a phone number to tell you about results. If you book an appointment, you can choose to give us your phone number, and we only use it to arrange that appointment.

3. Why we use it, and the law that lets us

The law says we must have a good legal reason to use your information. Health information needs an extra reason. Here is ours for each thing we do.

The free assessment

No doctor sees your free assessment. You get general information about your symptoms and a list of services that might help. You do not get a personal score or rating.

Because no doctor is involved, we can only use your health answers if you say yes. We ask you before the first question, in a box on its own. You can change your mind at any time. If you do, we delete your answers.

The paid report and booking

When you pay, you are making a deal with us. We need your information to do what we promised. Your health information is used to provide health care, under the care of people who have a legal duty to keep it secret.

For those who want the detail: UK GDPR Article 6(1)(a), (b), (c), (d) and (f); Article 9(2)(a), (c), (f), (g) and (h); and the Data Protection Act 2018, Schedule 1, Part 1 paragraph 2 and Part 2 paragraph 18. Our Appropriate Policy Document explains how we follow these rules.

4. How your paid report is made

Software writes a first draft. A real consultant decides what your report says.

  1. You answer the full set of questions.
  2. Our software uses clinical rules, based on NHS and NICE guidance, to sort your answers.
  3. Our software turns your answers into a draft report. No artificial intelligence (AI) is used, and your answers never leave our systems.
  4. The consultant neurologist you chose reads all your answers, not just the draft.
  5. They can change, delete or rewrite any part of the draft, including how urgent it says things are. They can throw it away completely.
  6. They sign the report in their own name, with their General Medical Council number.
  7. The report goes into your account. We email you to say it is ready. We never send the report itself by email.

We keep a record of what the software drafted and what the consultant signed. This proves a real person checked your report.

This is not a decision made only by a computer. A person reviews every report and has the final say. Even so, you can always ask us to explain how your report was made, tell us what you think, or ask a different consultant to look at it again. This is free and you never have to buy anything else to do it (see section 9).

5. Who we share it with

We only share what each person or company needs. We never sell your information.

Who

What they get

Amazon Web Services (AWS)

Stores the website and your information, in London, UK

IONOS

Emails

31Green and Itroadway

IT Support

Google Analytics (only if you say yes to cookies)

How people use the website. Never runs on the assessment, results or report pages. Google may process this data in the USA, protected by the UK–US data bridge

Google Search Console

Sends marketing emails. Never given any health information

Your GP. We do not tell your GP anything unless you ask us to. We do think it is a good idea to share your report with them.

6. Where your information is kept

We try to keep your information in the UK or Europe. If any of it has to go somewhere else, we only allow it once a legal contract is in place to protect it to UK standards.

Your answers, reports and documents are stored with Amazon Web Services (AWS) in London, in the UK. We do not use AI on your information.

A few companies who work for us may handle other information outside the UK:

  • Google Analytics (only if you say yes to cookies): how people use the website. It may be processed in the USA, protected by the UK–US data bridge. It never gets your health answers.
  • Stripe: your payment. It may be processed outside the UK, protected by legal contracts approved for UK data.

7. How long we keep it

We keep things only as long as we need to, or as long as the law says. A computer deletes them on time, not a person remembering to.

Backups. When we delete something, it goes from our live systems straight away. Copies in our backups are deleted when the backup is overwritten, within 30 days.

If you ask us to delete something we must keep by law, we will tell you what we are keeping and why.

8. Filling it in for someone else

You can fill in the assessment for another adult, such as a parent or partner, but only if they know about it and agree. We will ask you to confirm this before you start.

  • The information and the report are about them, so they belong to them.
  • They can ask us for a copy, or ask us to delete it. We will deal with them directly, even if that means telling them about an assessment they did not know about.
  • If the person cannot understand and agree, please do not use our service for them. Talk to their GP or an NHS memory service instead.
  • If we are worried someone is being pressured or harmed, our safeguarding team will look into it.

9. Your rights

Email dataprotection@neuroclinicians.com to use any of these rights. It is free. We will reply within one month. If your request is complicated, we may need up to two more months, and we will tell you why.

You can ask us to…

What this means

Show you your information

Get a copy of what we hold. You can also download your report from your account at any time

Creat it

Fix anything wrong. You can change contact details yourself. A consultant will not change their medical opinion because you disagree, but we will add a note saying you disagree

Delete it

We delete free assessment answers whenever you ask. Medical records must be kept for 8 years by law

Stop or limit using it

We will, unless it stops us keeping someone safe

Give it to you in a file

A computer-readable copy of the information you gave us

Take back your consent

For the free assessment or marketing, at any time. It does not undo what we already did

Have a person look again

Ask a different consultant to review your report, explain how it was made, or challenge it. Always free. We reply within 30 days

Questions about the medical opinion in your report are for the consultant who signed it. Send them to us and we will pass them on and make sure you get an answer.

10. Marketing, cookies, safety and security

Marketing. We only send marketing emails if you say yes. You can say no at any time with one click. We never use your health answers to decide what we send you. We never show you adverts because you started an assessment, and we never group people by their condition.

Cookies. Cookies are small files that help a website work. We only use the ones we need unless you say yes to others. Saying no is as easy as saying yes. No tracking or advert cookies ever run on the assessment, results or report pages. See our Cookie Policy for the full list.

When we might share without asking. Very rarely, we or your consultant may have to share information without your agreement. This is only when someone is at risk of serious harm, when the law or a court says we must, or if you keep driving after your consultant has told you it is not safe. If we can tell you first, we will.

If you tell us you might hurt yourself. We will follow our safeguarding policy. We are not a crisis service and cannot reply quickly. If you are in crisis, call 999, call NHS 111, or call Samaritans free on 116 123, day or night.

Keeping it safe. Your information is scrambled (encrypted) when it is sent and when it is stored. Only people who need to see it can, and we log who looks. Everyone who can see health information has signed a promise to keep it secret. Any account that holds a report or uploaded documents must use two-step login (a code as well as your password).

Under 18s. Our service is for adults only. If we find out someone is under 18, we close the account and delete their information.

11. Complaints and changes

If you are unhappy with how we have used your information, email dataprotection@neuroclinicians.com and we will put it right if we can.

You can also complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK’s data protection regulator, at any time. You do not have to come to us first. Visit ico.org.uk or call 0303 123 1113.

If we change this notice, we will put the new version here with a new date. If the change is important, we will tell you before it applies.
