MENTORING NOTES

During and after a Mastermind or mentoring session, notes of the confidential discussion are taken which are stored on the Business’ local computer and a backup device. They are not shared with anyone.

Business Mastermind meetings are not recorded, but notes may be taken by any of the participants, all of whom have agreed to treat the meetings as confidential.

CONTACT FORMS

There is a contact form in the Website. We will retain the name and email address of each correspondent to identify them, and we may share the name and address with an established email marketing service in order to send them information on our business and related services.

For those correspondents wishing to schedule contact with us, we will also retain other contact information, as supplied to us by them.

We will not give or sell anyone’s email address to any other third party, except when required by law to do so.

We will delete this information on emailed request.

Who we share your data with

We do not share your data with anyone without first obtaining your permission to do so, other than if we are required by law to do so.
