4. Our Lawful Bases
5. Who We May Share Information With
XTINT does not sell personal information. Information may be shared only where reasonably necessary with service providers acting on XTINT's behalf or where disclosure is required by law.
- Stripe, to process booking deposits and provide payment and fraud-prevention services.
- Google services, where used for appointment calendars, email delivery, storage or business administration.

- Chat and website providers, such as Tidio or the website-hosting provider, where their tools are enabled on the site.

- Police, courts, regulators, tax authorities or other public bodies where XTINT is legally required or reasonably permitted to disclose information.
- A buyer, seller or adviser involved in a genuine business sale, restructuring or transfer, subject to appropriate confidentiality safeguards.
Service providers are expected to use personal information only for the agreed service and to protect it appropriately.
6. AI Chatbot
The XTINT chatbot can answer questions and help prepare booking selections. Messages sent to the chatbot may be transmitted to an AI service provider so a response can be generated. Chat history may also be stored in your browser so the conversation can continue when you revisit or move between the homepage and booking page.
- Do not enter payment-card details, passwords, medical information or other sensitive personal information into the chatbot.
- Chatbot answers may be automated and may not always be complete or accurate.
- Important pricing, booking or legal questions should be confirmed directly with XTINT.
- You can clear locally stored chat history by clearing the relevant browser storage or website data.
7. Payments
Online deposits are processed by Stripe. Payment-card details are entered into Stripe's payment environment and are handled under Stripe's own privacy and security arrangements. XTINT may receive limited transaction information such as your name, email address, payment status, amount, date, payment reference and fraud-check result.
8. Cookies, Browser Storage and Technical Data
The website uses cookies, session storage, local storage or similar technologies to remember booking selections, retain chatbot history, record your cookie choice, support security and keep the website functioning. These essential technologies operate where necessary to provide features you request.
With your permission, Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager are used to understand visits and website usage. They may set cookies such as _ga and related identifiers and collect device, browser and interaction information. Analytics does not load unless you select “Accept analytics”.

You can accept or reject analytics using the cookie banner. You can review or change that choice at any time using the “Cookie settings” button displayed on the website. You can also remove stored information using your browser's website-data controls.
9. International Data Transfers
Some technology providers may process information outside the United Kingdom. Where this happens, XTINT will rely on an approved transfer mechanism or another lawful safeguard, such as UK adequacy regulations or appropriate contractual protections, where required.
