  • Personal identifiers, contacts and characteristics (for example, name and contact details)

How we get the personal information and why we have it

Most of the personal information we process is provided to us directly by you for one of the following reasons:

  • To help us to offer you convenience and flexibility when making appointments and allows us to send you reminders.
  • To ensure that we are working with you ethically and safely and that you are giving your fully informed consent to the coaching and that we have a shared and agreed intention for what you want the coaching to achieve for you.
  • This information enables us to provide a high quality service to you, ensuring we are equipped with the knowledge of our previous discussions prior to each session.

(a) Your consent. You are able to remove your consent at any time. You can do this by contacting Abigail Tweed at abi@milestonetweed.com

How we store your personal information

Your information is securely stored. We store all documents electronically using triple backup systems and a high level of security including multi-factor authentication on devices protected by passwords which automatically lock after five minutes of inactivity or less. 

We keep your contact details: personal identifiers, contacts and characteristics (for example, name and contact details) and session notes for three years. We will then dispose your information by removing your information from computers and online systems, with the exception of any schedule of appointments.
