6. Data Sharing and Third-Party Processors

We do not sell your personal data. However, to provide our services, we share data with trusted third-party service providers (“Processors”). We have agreements in place with these providers to ensure your data is protected.

7. International Data Transfers

Some of our external third parties (specifically GoHighLevel, Stripe, Zoom, Bodygraph, and Google) are based outside the European Economic Area (EEA), specifically in the USA.

Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

  • The provider is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF), which the European Commission has determined provides adequate protection.
  • Where the provider is not DPF certified, we use specific contracts approved by the European Commission (Standard Contractual Clauses) which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe.

8. Data Retention

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

  • Tax & Accounting Data: In Austria, we are legally required to keep basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial, and Transaction Data) for 7 years after they cease being customers for tax purposes (BAO).
  • Session/Client Data: Data related to active coaching is retained for the duration of our coaching relationship and deleted 3 years after our last interaction, unless you request earlier deletion.
  • Analytics Data: User-level data in Google Analytics is automatically deleted after 14 months.

9. Data Security

We have put in place appropriate security measures (including SSL encryption) to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized way. Access to your personal data is limited to those who have a business need to know.
