Introduction
Develop Yo’self Coaching is a personal training, nutrition and lifestyle coaching business based in Red Deer, Alberta. This policy explains how we handle personal information collected through this website and our initial coaching inquiries.
We believe privacy should be straightforward. If you have questions about how your information is handled, please contact us using the details at the end of this policy.
Information you share with us
When you submit our coaching inquiry form, we ask for your name, email address and a description of what you would like help with. You can also choose to tell us where you are based. If you email us directly, we receive the details you include in your message.
We use this information to respond to you personally, understand your goals and circumstances, discuss suitable coaching options and arrange next steps if you choose to continue. Sending an inquiry does not create a coaching commitment or automatically add you to a marketing email list.
Please avoid sending sensitive medical or health records through the initial website form. If additional personal or health-related information is needed for coaching, we can discuss an appropriate way to share it.
Information collected through the website
Like many websites, our hosting, security and website tools may process technical information such as IP addresses, browser or device details and basic activity logs to operate, protect and troubleshoot the site.
Our website also displays client videos and Facebook recommendations through third-party services. Those services may collect information about your visit or interactions according to their own privacy practices.
How we use and share information
We use personal information to answer inquiries, communicate about coaching, operate and secure our website and meet applicable legal obligations. We do not sell personal information.
Authorized service providers may process information on our behalf, including our Bluehost/WordPress hosting and business email services, and Jetpack/Automattic tools used for the coaching inquiry form. Embedded YouTube videos and Facebook review content may involve Google/YouTube, Meta/Facebook and the reviews-widget provider, Trustindex. Visiting those services or interacting with embedded content may be subject to their own privacy policies.
Some website service providers may process personal information in the United States to support services such as website hosting, email delivery, inquiry forms, and embedded videos or reviews. Jetpack Forms stores inquiry submissions in our WordPress database and may synchronize related form records with Automattic’s systems. The precise server locations for all our providers have not been confirmed, so we do not claim that every submission is stored outside Canada. If you have questions about our use of service providers outside Canada, you can contact Coach Mick using the email address below.
Cookies and embedded content
Our website and service providers may use cookies or similar technologies for website functionality, security or embedded content. YouTube videos and Facebook-related content may involve additional cookies or data collection when viewed or used.
Optional website analytics or marketing services, if enabled, may use additional technologies. You can manage cookies in your browser settings, although blocking some technologies may affect website functionality.
Keeping information secure and how long we retain it
We use reasonable safeguards appropriate to the information and services involved. No internet transmission or electronic storage method is guaranteed to be completely secure.
We retain inquiry information only for as long as reasonably necessary to respond, provide requested services, maintain appropriate business records or meet legal requirements. Information that is no longer required will be deleted, destroyed or anonymized as appropriate.
Your choices and privacy questions
You can contact us to ask what personal information we hold about you, request corrections, ask about our service providers or withdraw consent where applicable. Requests are handled subject to applicable legal requirements.
If you are reaching out about coaching for a child or teenager, we encourage a parent or guardian to participate in the inquiry and consent process.
