WHAT DATA DO I HOLD?

Information You Have Shared:

Information about your life as part of an intake process for my teaching services:

Engineer Stillness Program - please see here for details on the information asked, confidentiality & consent processes

If you have emailed me, filled in a contact form or scheduled to have a call about my services and/or program, you will have shared your contact details & in some cases your profession & your areas of interest.

Information I May Generate:

A record of our regular ‘check-in’ calls with dates, brief information on what was covered & any tools and/or recordings offered - these can be shared with you on request

Video and audio recordings of our practices together for your ongoing use and/or reference
Invoices & payment plans

WHY I COLLECT THIS DATA & FOR HOW LONG

A record of the work I do with you is to help me remember and review our work

Where you have shared your contact details as an enquiry or to schedule a chat, these details will only be used to make contact with you in relation to scheduling our chat, and if we go on to work together, to communicate about future sessions 

My accreditation body and insurance company recommend, based on UK Statute of Limitation law, that I hold on to client records for 7yrs after our work has ended

Thereafter, all information will be deleted

WHERE I STORE & SECURE YOUR DATA

I make use of iCloud Advanced Data Protection services. These services are password protected & encrypted. You can read about how iCloud protects its stored data here.

My accounts are accessed via password protected mobile devices including a laptop, tablet & mobile phone. Mobile phone numbers for clients are held locally on my mobile phone. No other identifying information is held locally on any of my mobile devices or external hard drives.

SECURITY ON THE INTERNET

Although this website uses SSL protection (when you are on a secure page, a lock icon will appear next to the web address) I cannot guarantee that the data will be 100% secure when it is transmitted. As a result I cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to me through enquiry forms, registration forms, or email enquiries, and you do so at your own risk. Once I receive your information, I make every effort to ensure its security on my own systems - see the section above. 

This website includes hyperlinks to, and details of, third party websites. I have no control over, and am not responsible for, the privacy policies and practices of third parties.

YOUR RIGHT TO YOUR DATA

You have a right to access your personal data. You can read more about this here. Please drop me an email with your request.
