As a homeopathy student currently under supervision at the Centre for Homeopathic Education in London, England, I comply with the relevant laws regarding the practice of homeopathy and data protection in South Carolina. My practice adheres to guidelines that prohibit offering medical advice or diagnosis, and any educational or consultative services are provided as complementary to traditional medical care.

Personal data collected will be handled in compliance with applicable laws, including the South Carolina Personal Data Protection Act, and other relevant data privacy regulations.

For the purposes of ensuring the highest quality of service and improving my homeopathic practice, I may record consultations with your prior consent. These recordings will be kept strictly confidential and are for internal use only, including for the purposes of review, educational improvement, and case analysis.

I will not share or distribute any audio recordings with third parties under any circumstances, and the recordings will be securely stored. If you prefer that your consultation not be recorded, please inform me before the consultation, and we will proceed without recording.

By booking a consultation, you consent to audio recording as described above. You may withdraw your consent to recording at any time, and no recordings will be made following your request. This will not affect the continuation of services or consultation.

We reserve the right to revise this Privacy Policy at any time. Any revisions will be posted immediately on this page. If the changes are substantial, we will notify you via a banner on our website, email, or other methods. By continuing to use our website after changes are posted, you agree to the revised Privacy Policy.

If any part of this Privacy Policy is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full effect. Failure to immediately act upon non-compliance with any part of this policy does not waive any rights we may have to enforce this Privacy Policy.

This Privacy Policy is governed by the laws of the United States and the state of South Carolina. Any disputes arising from this policy will be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts in South Carolina, USA.

Unless otherwise stated, this website and its content (including but not limited to source code, designs, logos, text, and graphics) are owned by Lowcountry Hope and Healing, LLC and are protected by copyright laws in the United States and internationally.
