2. What data we collect

  • When you contact us by email or phone: your name, contact details and anything you choose to share about your situation.
  • When you visit the website: technical data such as IP address, browser type, pages visited and time of visit, collected by our hosting provider for security and basic, anonymised visitor statistics.
  • When you become a client: the information needed to provide coaching or consulting services and to invoice them.

3. Why we use it and on what legal basis

  • To answer your enquiry and prepare a possible engagement (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR).
  • To deliver our services and meet accounting and tax obligations (Art. 6(1)(b) and (c) GDPR).
  • To run, secure and improve this website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, legitimate interest).

4. Hosting and service providers

This website is hosted on WordPress.com, operated by Automattic. Automattic processes technical data on our behalf to provide and secure the website. Emails are handled through Microsoft Outlook, provided by Microsoft. Some data may be transferred outside the EU; such transfers are covered by appropriate safeguards. We do not use any other tools that process visitor data.

5. Cookies

The website uses only cookies that are necessary for it to work and for basic, anonymised visitor statistics provided by WordPress.com. We do not use advertising cookies, social media tracking pixels or third-party analytics tools such as Google Analytics. You can block or delete cookies at any time in your browser settings.

6. How long we keep data

We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purposes above. Enquiries that do not lead to an engagement are deleted after 12 months. Client and invoicing records are kept for the period required by law (in the Netherlands generally 7 years).

7. Your rights

You have the right to access, correct, delete or receive a copy of your personal data, to restrict or object to its processing, and to withdraw consent at any time. To exercise these rights, email info@aeleosconsulting.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority; in the Netherlands this is the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens.

8. Confidentiality in coaching

Everything shared in coaching sessions is treated as strictly confidential, in line with the ICF Code of Ethics, and is never passed on to third parties (including employers who sponsor coaching) without your explicit consent, unless required by law.

9. Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. The current version is always available on this page.
