5. Your Next Chapter Enquiries — Google Forms

If you enquire about Your Next Chapter, you may be directed to a Google Form.

The form requests your name, email address, location or time zone, and information about your current circumstances, what may be changing in your life and what you hope to explore.

I use your responses to understand your enquiry, consider whether working together may be appropriate and contact you about possible next steps.

The legal basis for ordinary personal data is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, where the enquiry relates to possible contractual services.

The form is provided by Google, which processes information through its services. Depending on the applicable arrangements, this may involve international data transfers.

Please avoid including detailed medical histories, diagnoses or other sensitive personal information in your initial enquiry unless specifically requested through an appropriate process.

I use Calendly to arrange consultations and appointments.

9. Cookies, Analytics and Embedded Content

This website uses WordPress. Depending on its configuration, WordPress and installed plugins may use cookies or similar technologies to support essential website functions.

Where technologies are strictly necessary for providing a service requested by the visitor, they may be used without separate consent where permitted by law.

Non-essential cookies and comparable technologies requiring consent will only be used after the relevant consent has been obtained, in accordance with applicable data protection and German telecommunications privacy law.

Where consent is used, it may be withdrawn through the available consent settings.

10. Sensitive Personal Information

My work may involve discussions about personal development, relationships, emotional experiences, spiritual beliefs and life circumstances.

Some information shared in this context may qualify as special-category personal data under Article 9 GDPR, including information about health or religious or philosophical beliefs.

Where such information is processed, an appropriate legal basis under Article 6 GDPR and an additional condition under Article 9 GDPR are required.

Where explicit consent is the applicable condition, it will be requested separately and may be withdrawn in accordance with the law.

Please do not submit sensitive information through general website or enquiry forms unless necessary and an appropriate process has been established.

11. Recipients and International Data Transfers

Personal information may be processed by service providers supporting my website, email communications, forms, appointment scheduling and payment administration.

I do not sell personal information.

Some providers, including Google and Calendly, may process information outside the European Economic Area.

Where such transfers occur, the applicable requirements of Chapter V GDPR must be satisfied, including appropriate safeguards where necessary.

12. How Long I Keep Personal Data

I retain personal information only for as long as necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law.

14. Provision of Personal Data

Providing certain information, such as your name, contact details and information necessary to arrange an appointment, may be required to respond to an enquiry or provide a requested service.

Where information is required, failure to provide it may mean that I cannot process the enquiry or provide the service.
