Privacy policy

What you share matters.
So does how it’s handled.

You should know what happens with your details before you tell me your story.

Personal care & guidance · CuraçaoRead the practical details

You can ask me about privacy before we talk.

Before you share anything personal, I want you to understand how information is handled and who may be involved. Please ask about anything that concerns you.

There are limits to confidentiality, including legal duties and responsibilities around children’s safety. The full policy still needs clinic approval before this becomes a live service.

Martha

Please ask if you’re unsure about what to share.
  • Your details are used only to arrange and follow up your care
  • Only Martha and Angelo can see your booking details
  • Angelo handles practical matters and never joins sessions
  • You can ask to see, correct or delete your details
About me

Two kinds of information.

Practical details, like your name, contact details, appointment and payment, are stored securely so we can arrange your visits and match your bank transfer.

What we talk about in sessions is kept in Martha’s own professional notes, separate from the booking system. Angelo does not have access to it.

When others take part.

For couples and families, we agree at the start how information is shared between the people involved. For a child, parents or guardians are involved in decisions about care.

I only contact a school, doctor or anyone else with your permission.

Appointments & terms

The honest limits.

Confidentiality has limits. If someone’s safety is at serious risk, or if the law requires it, I may need to share information with the right people. I will tell you first whenever I can.

This policy follows the Curaçao personal data protection law (Landsverordening bescherming persoonsgegevens).

A little clarity.
Before you begin.

Who can see my booking?

Only Martha and Angelo, through a protected owner area. Your details are not sold or shared for marketing.

How long do you keep my details?

As long as needed for your care and for the records the law requires us to keep. After that, they are deleted.

How do I ask for my details to be changed or deleted?

Send an email to mb.mentalbalance@gmail.com. We reply within a reasonable time, usually within a few working days.
