See our Cookie Policy for details about these technologies and the information that they collect, use, or share, including how you may be able to control or disable these services.

4.2 Transfer Of Information To Canada, The U.S., And Other Countries

Given that the internet is a global environment, using the internet to collect and process personal data necessarily involves the transmission of data on an international basis. Personal information may be stored in servers hosted in countries outside Canada, including the United States. As such, your personal information may be subject to the laws of other countries, including the United States, where the data protection and other laws may not be as comprehensive as those in Canada. Personal information may be disclosed in response to inquiries or requests from government authorities in the United States or other countries in which we operate. Therefore, by browsing our website and communicating electronically with us, you acknowledge and agree to our processing of personal data in this way.

Strategic Coach® is based in Canada, the United States, and the United Kingdom. Information about you will be transferred to, and processed in, Canada, the U.S., and countries other than the country in which you are a resident. These countries may have data protection laws that are different to the laws of your country and, in some cases, may not be as protective. We have taken appropriate safeguards to require that your information will remain protected in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

4.3 Security

We employ technical and organizational measures designed to appropriately protect your information that is under our control and that we process on your behalf from unauthorized access collection, use, disclosure, copying, modification, or disposal, both during transmission and once we receive it. We store all information that you provide to us on secure servers. We train employees regarding our data privacy policies and procedures, and permit authorized employees to access information on a need-to-know basis, as required for their role. We use firewalls designed to protect against intruders and test for network vulnerabilities. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure.

Where you have a password, which enables you to use our services, you are responsible for keeping this password complex, secure, and confidential. If you would like to update or change your password, you may select the “Forgot your password?” link on the login page. You will be sent an email that allows you to reset your password.

4.4 Safeguarding Data

Strategic Coach® takes all feasible and reasonable precautions to protect the personal information that we collect from you. Every staff member must sign a Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure Agreement wherein he/she agrees not to improperly use and/or disclose any personal information about clients or other individuals who have contacted Strategic Coach®. Also, your personal information is retained in a secure database, which is only accessible by password and is protected by the use of firewalls.

 

4.5 Data Retention

We retain certain information that we collect from you while you are a participant in The Strategic Coach® Program and on our website, and in certain cases where you have deleted your account, for the following reasons:

  • To ensure that we do not communicate with you if you have asked us not to;
  • To inform you about new products, services, and features offered by Strategic Coach®;
  • To ease your renewal into the Program upon the completion of each workshop series year;
  • To be better able to chart your progress through the workshops;
  • To determine if a new client has been referred by a former or current client;
  • To facilitate your re-registration into the Program after leaving the Program. We know from experience that former clients often seek to re-register for the Program either within several months or several years after leaving it.
  • To provide you with a refund, if entitled;
  • To provide accurate accounting information to you;
  • To better understand the traffic to our website so that we can provide all members with the best possible experience;
  • To detect and prevent abuse of our website, illegal activities, and breaches of our Terms of Service;
  • To comply with applicable legal, tax, or accounting requirements; and
  • To establish, exercise, and defend legal claims.

 When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your information, we will either delete or anonymize it. We retain personal information collected from you when you request information, register an account, apply for a workshop, and/or order a product online for a period of 15 years thereafter.

4.6 Policy Scope

This Privacy Policy does not apply to information that you provide to third parties, such as other participants in The Strategic Coach® Program. Our website may direct you to a third-party service, such as social media services, or a portion of our website may be controlled by a third party (typically through the use of a frame or pop-up window separate from other content on our Platform). Disclosure of information to these third parties is subject to the relevant third party’s privacy policy. We are not responsible for the third-party privacy policy or content, even if we link to those services from our website or if we share information with these third parties.

Strategic Coach® is directly responsible for complying with all requirements of applicable EU privacy laws in connection with the information that we obtain and process for the purposes of managing our contacts, or organizing groups, or administering networks.

4.7 Revisions To This Policy

We may modify this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will provide notice to you by publishing the most current version on our Platform at www.strategiccoach/privacy and revising the date at the top of this page. If we make any material change to this policy, we will provide additional notice to you, such as by sending you an email or displaying a prominent notice on our Platform.

4.8 Links To Other Websites

Our website may contain links to other websites of interest. However, once you have used these links to leave our site, you should note that we do not have any control over those other websites. Therefore, we cannot be responsible for the protection and privacy of any information that you provide while visiting such sites, and such sites are not governed by this privacy statement. You should exercise caution and look at the privacy statement applicable to the website in question.

4.9 How Do We Use And Store Personal Information You Provide To Us When You Request Information, Register An Account, And/Or Order Products Online?

We will maintain your personal information in a secure database. We do not use the information in the database for any purposes other than facilitating your future orders, or to permit us to notify you of products, services, workshops, and features offered by Strategic Coach®. We do not store your credit card numbers or expiry dates in our database. Consequently, each time you choose to purchase an item, your name and shipping address will be pulled from the database, but you will have to re-enter your credit card information to complete the order.

 

4.10 Our Policy Regarding Sharing and Accessing Your Personal Information

Strategic Coach® does not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer the personal information you provide to us to third parties. We may allow authorized third-party service providers access to your personal information to perform services on our behalf. Our service providers are required to provide privacy protection comparable to ours and to limit their use of such information to providing services on our behalf. These service providers may be in another country, such as the United States, and the personal information may be subject to disclosure in accordance with the applicable laws of that jurisdiction, which may create a different privacy regime from your country of residence.

7. Additional GDPR Information

The Strategic Coach UK Limited is committed to protecting your right to privacy as a user of our online services and documents, as stated in this Privacy Policy. It is our policy to respect the privacy of private communication.

We collect information about our users in order to help us continually improve the products and services we offer and so that we can enter into commercial arrangements. Strategic Coach will take all reasonable steps to adhere to UK Data Protection Legislation, including but not limited to, the Data Protection Act 2018 and the UK GDPR.

We do not monitor your use of the internet, but we do use cookies and similar technologies, including web analytics, to monitor your use. This information is not stored alongside your personal data and will only be used on an anonymous, aggregated basis. We may process your personal data in combination with the documents and forms downloaded in order to maintain and improve the facilities we offer and to send you alerts about important updates to such content (see above).

Our processing of your personal data is in our legitimate interests and is necessary to provide Strategic Coach service to you and to continually improve it and the content available through it. Our use of your personal data is limited to that which is reasonably required in order to provide our service to you and to make improvements to that service that benefit both us and you. We do not use your personal data for any reasons not stated in this Privacy Policy and never use it in an excessive manner that is disproportionate to our aims of providing and improving our service or in a way that is contrary to your interests.

How Long Do We Keep Your Personal Data? The personal data that you provide when registering using Strategic Coach websites is retained until you ask us to delete it. If you wish to delete your account, you can do so by emailing legalinfo@strategiccoach.com. Download histories are retained indefinitely. We also retain records of subscriptions and transactions for accounting purposes. Personal data contained within emails sent to us will be retained for as long as we reasonably require it. Questions relating to our content along with our answers to those questions may be retained unless you ask us not to in order to facilitate answering similar queries in the future, whether from you or from others. We also retain certain communications to aid in the conduct of potential future legal claims.

As explained herein, certain personal data will be made accessible to our third-party providers, based outside of the UK and European Economic Area. Additional steps have therefore been taken to ensure that your personal data will be treated just as securely and safely as it would be in the UK and under the UK GDPR. We share your personal data with selected third parties exclusively to provide services to you. To the extent necessary for the purpose of providing our service, the personal data that you give us during the registration process, and data relating to the documents and forms downloaded by you, may be transferred to third parties whom we engage from time to time to provide us with any services (including, but not limited to, payment processing) that we use for the purpose of administering our business and providing our products and services to customers.

Your Rights Under The UK GDPR

Individual data subjects have the following rights under the UK GDPR, which we will always work to uphold:

  • The right to be informed about our collection and use of your personal data (as described in this Privacy Policy).
  • The right to access your personal data by means of a subject access request (see below).
  • The right to have your personal data rectified if any of your personal data held by us is inaccurate or incomplete. You can do this by contacting us.
  • The right to erasure (also known as the right to be forgotten). You can exercise this right by contacting us.
  • The right to restrict or object to our processing of your personal data for particular purposes. Email preferences can be changed by emailing us at legalinfo@strategiccoach.com.

For more information about our use of your personal data or exercising your rights as outlined above, please contact us. Further information about your rights can be obtained from the Information Commissioner’s Office.
