How do I track allergy and injury information for massage clients?
Per-client notes are standard in modern massage software. CelerBook offers free-form notes on every client card where you keep allergies, injuries and previous treatments per client, so the therapist sees the relevant information before each appointment. Data falls under the WGBO 15-year retention rule for medically relevant data, hosted at Hetzner in Germany. Access and deletion within 30 days. The rate stays €0.25 per appointment.
How do I store massage client data GDPR-compliant?
Storing massage client data GDPR-compliant requires EU hosting, a data processing agreement and clear retention periods. CelerBook hosts data at Hetzner in Germany and signs a data processing agreement at signup. The practice is the data controller; the software vendor is the processor. Retention for medically relevant massage data is 15 years per the WGBO, 7 years for tax data. Access and deletion requests within 30 days. No contract.
How does a no-show policy work for long massages?
A Dutch massage practice may charge a no-show fee for long massages provided the policy is clearly shown upfront. The Consumentenbond cites 25 percent of the treatment price as a common amount, especially for treatments over 60 minutes or for new clients. CelerBook displays the no-show policy on every online booking and in the confirmation email. Clients pay in the practice, so the fee is invoiced afterwards. No contract.
