The information we collect and why
As we ensure your experience with our Services is uniquely yours, we collect a mix of personal and non-personal information from you to pull that off. This is not because we are nosy but because we are here to cater to your career needs.

Payment method information
When it's time to pay for any of our Services, we will need a bit of info about your payment method to make the magic happen.

How we may share your information
We do not disclose, share, or transfer your information to third parties, including for them to market their services to you. However, information about you may be shared under the following conditions:
Sharing with third-party service providers
We work with a bunch of third-party service providers (“Service Providers”) who lend us a hand with things like web hosting, data storage, analytics monitoring, website maintenance, and payment handling. Some of these Service Providers may have access to your information in order to carry out their obligations. For example, Podia is a major Service Provider that provides us with services like hosting, analytics, and storage. They may access certain information about you but only to the extent needed to provide their services.
Sharing with other members and the public
If you provide us with content such as comments on the website, the name you provide and the content of your comment will be public and visible to other members and the public. Likewise, if you send us testimonials and reviews about our Services, we may post them on our website, and they will be public to anyone who visits our website. As a privacy measure, when commenting on our content, you can leave your name under a pseudonym.
Sharing with the International Coach Federation (ICF)
If you use our coaching services, we may log your email address and coaching hours (not coaching sessions) with the International Coach Federation (“ICF”) as a requirement for our accreditation. The coaching hours logged will not contain any personal information.
Sharing in compliance with the law and for rights protection
If the law comes knocking with a court order, subpoena, or any other legal summonses, we might need to share some info about you. It's like a legal obligation, and in those cases, we are obligated to comply. Also, if we genuinely believe that sharing info will protect our rights, the rights of any member of our amazing community, or even a third party, we might go ahead and share in good faith. However, if we ever find ourselves in a legal situation, we will do our best to give you a heads-up – if it's possible and doesn't step on any legal grounds.
Sharing in connection to a business transfer
In times of business transactions like mergers, sale of assets, acquisitions, consolidation, or a case of bankruptcy, we might need to share business info, including your information, with the applicable entities. In such instances, we will do our best to communicate it to you – unless it is going to go against a legal obligation.
Sharing at your consent
In unusual circumstances, we might share information about you. However, we will only do this after we have obtained explicit consent from you.
How we secure your information
Your information is protected using technical and organizational measures based on the type of information and applicable processing activity. Podia handles the security aspect on our behalf. And they employ the necessary safeguards possible to ensure only authorized persons have access to your information. In addition, payments are handled by Stripe. They have the required certification to collect and process payments securely. However, you also have a duty to perform – you should select strong password combinations and keep your account restricted to only you.
Nevertheless, we cannot always guarantee the security of your information even though we and third parties strive to keep it so. The technology world develops every day, and loopholes are discovered daily.
How long we retain your information
Unless your account or use of our Services is terminated, we retain information about you as long as you are an active member. If you choose to deactivate your account (or we close it for violation or inactivity), we will delete your information within 30 days. We may retain your information for longer periods to comply with applicable laws, resolve disputes, prevent legal claims, or enforce our Terms of Service. We may also retain some information in aggregated form in ways that do not identify you. This is to help us analyze trends and continue our Services.
Cross-border transfer of information
Although we collect and handle your information in accordance with the US privacy laws (being our base of operation), your information may be transferred to and processed in locations outside of your location because we may use some Service Providers outside of the US. However, we only use Service Providers with adequate data protection practices and offer additional precautions for such transfers.
If the transfer of personal information requires additional safeguards or practices (for example, the Standard Contractual Clauses for members in the EU, EEA, UK, and locations with laws similar to the GDPR), we take steps to comply.
