Privacy Policy

Last updated: 3 June 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Seen Sooner (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses, and protects information when you use seensooner.co.uk. We are committed to protecting your privacy and complying with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

1. Who we are

Seen Sooner is a free online tool that helps people in the United Kingdom find ADHD and autism assessment providers. The service is operated by the Seen Sooner team, based in the United Kingdom.

If you have questions about this policy or how we handle your data, please contact us at hello@seensooner.co.uk.

2. Information we collect

Information you provide: When you use our matching tool, you enter a UK postcode, select an age group, and choose an assessment preference. We do not store this information — it is used only within your browser session to generate your matched provider results and is never transmitted to our servers or retained after you leave the page.

Automatically collected information: Like most websites, we and our third-party partners (including Google) automatically collect certain information when you visit our site. This may include your IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, time spent on pages, and referring URL. This information is collected via cookies and similar tracking technologies.

We do not collect: names, email addresses, health information, payment details, or any directly identifiable personal data through the Seen Sooner service itself.

3. Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. We use cookies for the following purposes:

  • Essential cookies: Required for the site to function correctly (e.g. session state). These cannot be disabled.
  • Analytics cookies: We may use anonymised analytics to understand how visitors use our site so we can improve it.
  • Advertising cookies: We use Google AdSense, which places cookies on your device to serve relevant advertisements. These cookies may use data from your prior browsing activity across other websites to personalise the ads you see.

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling cookies may affect how certain parts of the site function. You can also opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google's Ad Settings.

4. Google AdSense and advertising

Seen Sooner uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google AdSense is operated by Google LLC (or Google Ireland Limited in the EU/EEA/UK). Google uses cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other websites.

Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the internet. You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings or by visiting aboutads.info.

For more information on how Google collects and uses data, please review Google's Privacy Policy.

We do not control the cookies placed by Google AdSense and are not responsible for Google's data practices. Google acts as an independent controller of data collected through its advertising products.

5. How we use your information

We use the information collected to:

  • Provide and improve the Seen Sooner matching service
  • Display advertising through Google AdSense to fund the free service
  • Monitor site performance and fix technical issues
  • Comply with legal obligations

Our lawful basis for processing under UK GDPR is legitimate interests (to operate and improve the service) and, where advertising is involved, consent in accordance with applicable regulations.

6. Third-party services

Our site uses the following third-party services that may process data:

7. Data retention and security

Because we do not store personal data on our servers (your postcode and preferences exist only in your browser session), we do not have specific data retention periods to disclose.

Data collected by third-party services (such as Google) is retained and processed according to their own policies. We implement reasonable technical measures to ensure our site is secure and up to date.

8. Your rights under UK GDPR

As a UK resident, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

  • Right of access: You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Right to rectification: You can ask us to correct inaccurate data.
  • Right to erasure: You can request deletion of your data where we no longer have a lawful basis to hold it.
  • Right to object: You can object to processing based on legitimate interests, including for direct marketing.
  • Right to withdraw consent: Where processing is based on consent, you can withdraw it at any time.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at hello@seensooner.co.uk. If you are unsatisfied with our response, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).

9. Children's privacy

Seen Sooner provides information about ADHD and autism assessment services for children on behalf of their parents and carers. We do not knowingly collect personal data directly from children. The information entered into our tool (such as age group) is provided by adults and is not retained.

10. Links to other websites

Our site contains links to provider websites, the Care Quality Commission, NHS resources, and other third-party sites. This Privacy Policy applies only to seensooner.co.uk. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites and encourage you to review their policies before sharing personal information.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated “Last updated” date. We encourage you to check this page periodically.
