6. Purpose of Processing
Personal data is processed to:

7. AI-Supported Processing
Some services use AI-supported tools to help analyse or reframe information you provide.
These tools:
operate only on data you choose to submit
support reflection rather than decision-making
do not use your data to train public AI models
AI tools are used to identify patterns in exercise responses and session notes, including linguistic and behavioural signals relevant to coaching. A running Pattern Summary is maintained for each client across their engagement. This is used solely to improve session preparation and coaching quality, not for automated decision-making. Clients may request to view or delete their Pattern Summary at any time.
8. Data Sharing
We do not sell personal data.
We may share data with trusted processors (hosting, analytics, AI providers) under GDPR-compliant agreements, or where legally required.
Coaching sessions may be recorded using Fathom (fathom.video). Recordings, transcripts, and AI-generated summaries are processed by Fathom under a data processing agreement. Session data is retained for 24 months after the engagement ends.
Some processors are based outside the EU/EEA. Transfers are governed by Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent GDPR-compliant mechanisms.
9. Cookies
We use cookies as described in our Cookie Policy.

Data is retained only as long as necessary for service delivery and legal obligations, after which it is deleted or anonymised.

11. Data Security
Appropriate technical and organisational measures are used to protect personal data. No system can be guaranteed fully secure, but care is taken to minimise risk.
