Your details
What I collect when you contact me or book lessons, why, and what happens to it. In plain English, on one page.
02What I collect
- Your name, phone number and email, when you message me, book a free intro chat, leave your details on the enquiry form or join a course.
- For children, the student's name and age, and the parent or guardian's contact details.
- Your payment reference and the amount paid. I never see or store your card details.
- Learning records: lesson notes, homework and progress reports.
03Why I use it
- Only to arrange and teach your lessons, take payment, send receipts and progress reports, and answer your questions.
- I don't send marketing, and I never sell or share your details.
04Where it's kept
- In the everyday tools I use to run the lessons: WhatsApp, Gmail, Google Calendar and Cal.com (for intro-chat bookings), Tally and Google Sheets (for the enquiry form) and Monzo (for payments). Lessons take place on Google Meet.
- Lessons are not recorded unless you ask, and any recording is for your use only.
05How long I keep it
- If you only leave your details on the enquiry form and don't go on to study, I delete them within 6 months.
- For as long as you're studying with me, and for up to 12 months afterwards, in case you come back or need a receipt. After that, I delete it.
06Your rights
- You can ask to see, correct or delete the details I hold about you at any time. Just email or message me.
- If you're unhappy with how your details are handled, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).
07This website
- Visitor statistics (no cookies): I use Umami to count visits, which pages and buttons are used, and roughly where visitors come from. It doesn't use cookies, doesn't identify you and doesn't follow you to other sites.
- Microsoft Clarity (only if you agree): if you click Accept on the cookie message, Clarity uses cookies to record how the page is used (taps, scrolling, where people get stuck) so I can improve it. Text you type is masked. If you click No thanks, it never loads. You can change your mind with Cookie settings at the bottom of any page.
- The site loads fonts from Google Fonts, which means your browser connects to Google to download them. The booking and enquiry pages are run by Cal.com and Tally.
