By booking a session, contacting us by email or messaging app, or entering into a coaching relationship with us, you consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy and the Client Service Agreement.
We do not use your information for marketing without your explicit consent. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for commercial purposes.
4. Third-Party Service Providers
To deliver our services, we use the following third-party platforms. Each processes your data according to their own privacy policies:

5. How Long We Retain Your Information
Administrative records, including your name, contact information, Client Service Agreement, and the specific dates and duration of coaching sessions required for International Coaching Federation (ICF) credential verification and tax purposes, are maintained for seven (7) years following the conclusion of the coaching relationship.
Temporary session notes may be maintained during the coaching relationship for preparation and continuity purposes. These notes are temporary, are not part of the permanent Client record, may be deleted at any time, and will be destroyed no later than the conclusion of the coaching relationship.
You may request earlier deletion of your personal information by contacting us in writing, subject to our need to retain records for ICF credential verification, tax, legal, contractual, or other applicable requirements.

- Use of password-protected accounts, secure passwords, and reputable service providers
- Limiting access to personal information to ourselves only
- Using reputable, security-conscious third-party platforms
No method of transmission or storage is entirely secure. In the event of a privacy breach that creates a real risk of significant harm, we will notify you and the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada as required by PIPEDA.
