Lawful Basis for Processing

We process personal data only when we have a lawful basis to do so under GDPR Article 6:

Consent

Where you have given clear, affirmative consent for us to process your personal data for specific purposes, such as marketing communications.

Contract Performance

Processing necessary to fulfill our contractual obligations when you engage our speaker preparation services.

Legitimate Interests

Processing necessary for our legitimate business interests, such as improving our services, provided these interests do not override your fundamental rights.

Legal Obligation

Processing required to comply with legal obligations, such as tax reporting or regulatory requirements.

Your Rights Under GDPR

GDPR grants you specific rights regarding your personal data:

Right to Access

You have the right to request confirmation of whether we process your personal data and to receive a copy of that data.

Right to Rectification

You may request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you.

Right to Erasure

In certain circumstances, you have the right to request deletion of your personal data, also known as the "right to be forgotten."

Right to Restriction of Processing

You may request that we limit how we use your personal data in specific situations.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used format and to transmit that data to another controller.

Right to Object

You may object to processing of your personal data based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes.

Right to Withdraw Consent

Where processing is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time.

Rights Related to Automated Decision-Making

You have the right not to be subject to decisions based solely on automated processing that produce legal effects or similarly significantly affect you.

Exercising Your Rights

To exercise any of your GDPR rights, please contact us at [email protected] with your request. We will respond within one month of receiving your request, though this period may be extended by two additional months for complex requests.

When submitting a request, please provide sufficient information to allow us to verify your identity and locate your data.

Data Protection Principles

We adhere to the GDPR data protection principles in all our processing activities:

  • Lawfulness, fairness, and transparency: We process data lawfully and provide clear information about our practices
  • Purpose limitation: We collect data for specified, explicit purposes and do not process it in ways incompatible with those purposes
  • Data minimization: We collect only data that is adequate, relevant, and necessary
  • Accuracy: We take steps to ensure personal data is accurate and kept up to date
  • Storage limitation: We retain data only as long as necessary for the purposes collected
  • Integrity and confidentiality: We implement appropriate security measures to protect personal data
  • Accountability: We take responsibility for compliance and can demonstrate our adherence to these principles

Data Breach Notification

In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify you without undue delay. We will also notify the relevant supervisory authority within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach, as required by GDPR.

International Data Transfers

If we transfer your personal data outside the European Economic Area or United Kingdom, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as:

  • Standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission
  • Transfer to countries with adequacy decisions
  • Other legally approved transfer mechanisms

Data Protection Officer

While we are not currently required to appoint a Data Protection Officer, we have designated internal personnel responsible for data protection compliance. You may contact us regarding data protection matters at [email protected].

Complaints

If you believe we have not handled your personal data in accordance with GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. In the United Kingdom, this is the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO):

Children's Data

Our services are not directed to children under 16 years of age. We do not knowingly collect or process personal data from children. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected data from a child, we will delete it promptly.
