Privacy policy
This policy explains what personal information this website collects, why, and what rights you have over it. It is written to meet the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
Who is responsible for your data
Dave Cottrell is the data controller for personal information collected through this website. If you have any questions about this policy or your data, email dave@mindsetbydave.com.
What we collect and why
Contact form
When you send an enquiry, we collect your name, email address, organisation (if given), enquiry type, preferred date (if given) and your message. We use this only to reply to your enquiry and to arrange any booking. The lawful basis is our legitimate interest in responding to people who contact us, or taking steps at your request before entering into a contract.
Newsletter
When you subscribe to the newsletter, we collect your email address. We use it to send you news about events, talks and Dave's work. The lawful basis is your consent. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email, or by emailing us.
If you email us directly, we keep your email and our reply so we can deal with your request and keep a record of our conversation.
Website analytics
We use Umami to count visits and see which pages are popular. Umami does not use cookies, does not collect personal information and does not track you across other websites. The data is anonymous and is used only to improve this site.
Cookies
This website does not set any cookies for tracking or advertising.
Who we share your data with
We never sell your data. We use a small number of trusted services to run this website:
- Netlify hosts the website and processes contact form submissions.
- Mailchimp (Intuit) stores newsletter subscribers and sends the newsletter.
- Umami provides anonymous website analytics.
Some of these services store data outside the UK, including in the United States. Where this happens, they use approved safeguards, such as the UK International Data Transfer Addendum or the UK Extension to the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, to protect your data.
How long we keep your data
- Enquiries and related emails: up to two years after our last contact, unless they become part of a booking.
- Booking records: up to six years, to meet tax and accounting rules.
- Newsletter subscriptions: until you unsubscribe.
Your rights
Under UK data protection law, you have the right to:
- ask for a copy of the personal information we hold about you;
- ask us to correct information that is wrong or incomplete;
- ask us to delete your information;
- ask us to limit or stop using your information;
- object to how we use your information;
- withdraw your consent at any time, where we rely on consent.
To use any of these rights, email dave@mindsetbydave.com. We will reply within one month.
How to complain
If you are unhappy with how we handle your data, please contact us first so we can try to put it right. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk or by calling 0303 123 1113.
