If there is a breach of security of an individual’s information, they will be informed within 72 hours of the breach being identified, and any possible remedial action will be taken.

This policy and its implementation will be regularly reviewed at Trustee Meetings.
Website Privacy Policy
As with all personal data, emails sent to us via the Priory website will be safeguarded according to the above policy.
It should also be noted that the software company Wix is the Data Processor for our website as the site uses their software and is hosted remotely by them. Data is protected by them according to the Wix Privacy Policy.
To help understand the Wix privacy policy, please be aware that, in that document, Wix refers to three categories of user: visitors, users and users-of-users. Anyone using the Priory website is regarded as a user-of-users from Wix’s point of view. The other two categories are restricted to users of Wix’s own website, so are not relevant here.
This privacy policy does not cover the links within this site linking to other websites. Those sites are not governed by this privacy policy and if you have questions about how another site uses your information, you’ll need to check that site’s privacy statement.

Cookies let you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences, and generally improving the user experience.
