About Your Privacy
Your trust matters to me — in our coaching conversations and in the way your personal information is handled. This Privacy Policy explains what information I collect, why I collect it, how it is used and protected, and the rights you have over your data.
 
1. Information I Collect
When you use this website or book a session, I may collect:
Your name
Email address
Phone number
Booking details (such as session date, time, and type)
Messages you send via contact forms or email
Basic technical data (such as IP address, browser type, and pages viewed)
At this time, payment card details are not collected through this website. If payments are introduced in future, you will be told which secure payment provider is used and how your details are processed.
 
2. How Your Information Is Collected
I collect information when you:
Book a session through Cal.com
Contact me via the website, email, or other communication methods
Visit and use the website (for example, through basic technical logs or analytics tools)
Some of this information is provided directly by you; some may be collected automatically through your use of the website (for example, IP address or browser information).
 
3. Why Your Data Is Used (Purposes and Legal Bases)
Your personal data is used to:
Deliver coaching sessions 
Communicate with you 
Manage and administer bookings 
Maintain business and accounting records
Improve the website and user experience 
Under UK GDPR, I rely on the following lawful bases for processing:
Contract – to provide services requested 
Legitimate interests – to run, maintain, and improve my website  
Legal obligation – to comply with legal or regulatory requirements  
Consent – (where required) 
Where processing is based on consent, you can withdraw your consent at any time.
 
4. Booking System – Cal.com
Bookings are managed via Cal.com, which acts as a data processor on my behalf. When you make a booking:
Your booking information is stored in Cal.com and may be processed in the UK, EU, or United States, depending on their hosting arrangements.
Where personal data is transferred outside the UK, Cal.com is required to have appropriate safeguards in place in line with UK GDPR (such as Standard Contractual Clauses or other recognised transfer mechanisms).
You can find more information about how Cal.com handles data in their own privacy documentation.
 
5. How Long Your Information Is Kept
I keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes set out in this policy or to meet legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
Basic booking and transaction records may be kept for up to 6 years to comply with tax and business record keeping obligations.
Emails and coaching related correspondence may be kept while we are working together and for a reasonable period afterwards, unless you request deletion and there is no legal reason to keep them.
When data is no longer needed, it is securely deleted or anonymised.
 
6. How Your Information Is Protected
I take appropriate steps to protect your personal information, including:
SSL encryption (HTTPS) on the website
Secure, reputable booking and email providers
Restricted access to personal data 
No online system can guarantee complete security, but reasonable measures are in place to reduce risk and protect your information.
 
7. Your Rights
Under UK data protection law, you have the right to:
 Request access to your personal data 
Request inaccurate or incomplete data to be corrected
Request deletion of data where legally permitted
Restriction or objection, to processing your data 
Lodge a complaint with the Information Commission’s Office (ICO)

You can find details at www.ico.org.uk.
 
8. Confidentiality in Coaching
Coaching discussions are treated with care and confidentiality, in line with my Terms of Service. In rare situations, confidentiality may need to be broken where there is a legal obligation or a serious safeguarding concern (for example, risk of harm to you or someone else).

9. Children's Data 
Christ Centre Coaching is aimed at adults. I do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 18. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact me so I can delete it where appropriate.
 
10. Updates to This Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in the law or how the business operates. The most current version will always be available on this website.
