If your work involves children, neurodivergent clients, or other vulnerable groups, a standard privacy policy isn't enough. You're likely handling special category data — health and neurodivergence-related information — and may need to share it with schools, local authorities, or social services to keep a client safe.
This addendum template was built specifically for that situation. It sets out your legal basis for processing sensitive data, explains parental consent for children's data, and — critically — gives you clear, well-structured wording for when and how you may share information without consent for safeguarding reasons.
Designed to sit alongside your main Privacy & GDPR Policy (sold separately or as a bundle), giving your clients and their families confidence that sensitive information is handled with real care.
What's Included
• One fully formatted Word document (.docx), branded and ready to rebrand as your own
• Special category data and Article 9 legal basis explained in plain English
• Dedicated safeguarding disclosure section covering schools, social services, and statutory agencies
• Retention guidance for safeguarding records and DBS/vetting information
• "How to Use This Addendum" guide with a pre-publish checklist
Who It's For
• Tutors and educational practitioners working with SEN or neurodiverse children
• Coaches, therapists, and mentors working with children or vulnerable adults
• Any small practice that may need to make safeguarding referrals as part of its work
