OUR SERVICES (Workshops, Seminars, Keynote Speaking, 1-on-1 and Group Coaching)

When you engage with our services, such as registering for workshops or seminars, or participating in 1-on-1 or group coaching, we collect and process Personal Data necessary to provide these services. This may include:

Contact Information: Name, email address, phone number, and mailing address for registration and communication.

This data is used solely for the purpose of delivering and improving our coaching and speaking services to you.

We act as the Data Controller for the Personal Data collected directly for the provision of our services. We ensure that access by our employees or contractors to your data is only available on a need-to-know basis, restricted to specific individuals, and is logged and audited. We communicate our privacy and security guidelines to our employees and enforce privacy and protection safeguards strictly. The legal basis for this processing is primarily the fulfillment of our contract with you.

SOCIAL MEDIA

We are present on social media platforms on the basis of our legitimate interest. If you contact or connect with us via social media, we and the respective platform may be jointly responsible for the processing of your data. The Personal Data collected when contacting us is to handle your request, and the bases are both your consent and our legitimate interest.

When you visit our social media profile, we, as the operator of the profile, process your actions and interactions with our profile (e.g., the content of your messages, inquiries, posts or comments that you send to us or leave on our profile or when you like or share our posts) as well as your publicly viewable profile data (e.g., your name and profile picture). Which Personal Data from your profile is publicly viewable depends on your profile settings, which you can adjust yourself in the settings of your social media account. The legal basis is our legitimate interest and your consent.

DATA SECURITY

We undertake to protect your privacy and to treat your Personal Data confidentially. In order to prevent manipulation, loss, or misuse of your data stored with us, we take extensive technical and organizational security precautions which are regularly reviewed and adapted to technological progress.

However, we would like to point out that, due to the nature of the Internet, it is possible that the rules of data protection and the above-mentioned security measures are not observed by other persons or institutions that are not in our area of responsibility. We have no technical influence on this. It is the user's responsibility to protect the data he or she provides against misuse by encrypting it or in any other way.

We may also disclose your Personal Data for any purpose with your consent or for law enforcement, fraud prevention or other legal actions as required by law or regulation, or if we reasonably believe that we must protect us, our customers or other business interests.
