When we collect your personal data

 

If you decide to contact Julia Stewart Coaching & Consulting or make use of personalized services (e.g. by subscribing to a newsletter or filling in a form on this site), then you will be asked to submit the limited personal data which is necessary for us to provide that service or respond to your query. This is completely voluntary.

 

If you ask us to send you newsletters or other communications, we rely on your active consent in order to do so. You may opt out of receiving these communications at any time.

 

If any form which collects your personal data allows you to voluntarily provide additional information, we seek this information because we think it will help us to give you a better quality service. You do not have to provide such information if you do not wish to do so.

                                              

We also collect personal data from cookies, which we explain more about below.
