This privacy policy sets out the way your personal data will be processed. and has been created to make sure clients are aware of how I use their data.

I may collect your personal data in a few limited ways, namely:

  • Directly from you, when you fill in an application for lessons, when you make enquiries on the website, when you provide information via the Venue's management software or booking system, or when you interact with me during your time as a student or parent/guardian in various other ways (for example, where you enter an exam/competition).
  • From someone else who has applied for lessons on your behalf (for example a family member (parent/guardian) who has provided me with your contact details for that purpose)

I may collect the following types of personal data:

  • Contact and communications information, including your contact details (including email address(es), telephone numbers and postal address(es) and records of communications and interactions.
  • Financial information, including records of payment.
  • Certain other information which you may volunteer e.g data about medical conditions

Personal data provided to me will be used for the purposes set out at the time of collection and, where relevant, in accordance with any preferences you express.

All the personal data I hold about you will be processed by Donna Jane Morley in the UK. 

Some information may also be shared with the following third-party organisations as needed:

 I will generally keep your personal data for a minimum of 6 years, after which time it will be destroyed if it is no longer required for the lawful purpose(s) for which it was obtained.

I will always respect your wishes in respect of what type of communications you want to receive from me and how you want to receive them.
