This Privacy Policy explains how Here For You collects, uses and shares your personal information when you use this website and our services.

Data controller

Here For You is run by Naomi Higa. Naomi Higa is the data controller responsible for your personal information under UK data protection law (the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018).

Personal information we collect
