This privacy policy sets out how Matthew Radley & Associates Limited (company registration number 7608964) uses and protects any information that you provide when using our website or contracting with us to provide coaching services. As a business we are committed to ensuring the privacy of the people who engage with us, and therefore any information we ask you to share with us will be strictly dealt with in line with this Privacy Policy and UK Data Protection requirements.
Matthew Radley & Associates Limited is also registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) under reference ZA214422.
As you engage with us, and we engage with you, we need to collect certain information to help us work effectively together and to deliver our services in accordance with our coaching programmes. We collect information in a variety of ways including via the ‘Talk to us’ and ‘Newsletter subscription’ pages on our website, emails, phone calls, verbally or Linkedin requests.
The types of information we initially collect may include the following:
As we progress in our professional relationship we go on to request further information to enable a smooth business operation. This includes information to support with engaging with clients within your organisation (such as names, email addresses job titles, phone numbers, Skype addresses), as well as contact information for the Finance Department to arrange Vendor Numbers, Purchase Order Numbers, etc.
When sharing information with us on behalf of people from within your organisation, it is your responsibility to ensure that you have complied with data regulations before doing so. We accept no liability for making contact with people inside your organisation that you have requested us to.
When working with individuals or teams we will go on to request further information to support with the delivery of our coaching programmes. This includes information such as your personal and professional goals/ambitions; team goals; business goals; strategic ambitions.
When working with individuals it is likely that sensitive and confidential information will be shared with your Coach. We commit to holding this information with the strictest of confidence and our ‘Coaching Contract’, which we will counter-sign with you, lays out our agreement clearly. If you have not been asked to sign a ‘Coaching Contract’ with us please contact your Coach for further information requesting the opportunity to do so immediately.
At the end of a Coaching Programme we might ask for a quote from you to be used alongside your name, title and company for our website or other promotional material. Please let us know if you do not wish your quote to be used.
Also, when using Psychometric Assessment tools such as MBTI and EQi-360 within our Coaching Programmes we require specific information to enable you and others to complete the assessments. This includes your name and email address. EQi-360 also requires contact detail for the people you would like feedback from, including their names, email addresses and relationship to you (e.g. Peer, Manager), and this process is clearly documented later in this Privacy Policy in line with GDPR (see appendixes). Statements from OPP (MBTI provider) and MHS (EQi-360 provider) are available from us on request.
The results of any Psychometric Assessment you complete through us will always remain your property and we will never share your responses/results with anyone else outside of our organisation without your permission to do so. We may on occasion share them internally between ourselves when co-designing or co-delivering Coaching Programmes.
