Privacy Policy
This policy explains how your personal information is collected, used, and protected when you interact with this website or engage coaching services. It is designed to be transparent and straightforward — written for real people, not legal departments.
Last updated: 22 April 2026
1. Who We Are
Aparajitha Murali Consultants ("we," "us," or "our") operates this website (the "Site"). This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of Personal Information we receive from users of the Site.
2. What Data We Collect
We collect only the information needed to provide a great coaching experience and keep this website running smoothly. The table below summarises the categories of data, where they come from, and why we use them.
| Data Category | Source | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Identifiers (Name, Email) | Contact / intake forms | Communication and service delivery |
| Coaching & Professional Info | Intake forms | Tailoring coaching strategies to you |
| Sensitive Health / Neurodivergence Info | Voluntarily provided by you | Neuro-inclusive support (explicit consent only) |
| Usage Data (IP, browser info) | Automated tracking (Google Analytics) | Site security and performance optimisation |
| Booking Details | Booking system (YouCanBookMe) | Processing and managing reservations |
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If you believe a child has shared information with us, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.
3. Legal Basis for Processing
We only process your personal data when we have a valid reason to do so. Depending on the situation, we rely on one or more of the following lawful bases:
- Consent — for example, when you fill out a contact form or voluntarily share health or neurodivergence information.
- Contract — to fulfil our coaching agreement with you and deliver the services you have signed up for.
- Legitimate interests — to keep the site secure, prevent fraud, and improve how our services work, where these interests do not override your rights.
- Legal obligation — where we are required to retain or process data under applicable law.
4. Sensitive (Special Category) Data
As a neuro-inclusive coaching practice, we may occasionally handle information about your health, neurodivergence (such as ADHD), or related personal circumstances if you choose to share this with us.
We only process sensitive information:
- With your explicit consent, which you can withdraw at any time.
- Within our secure, password-protected coaching environment.
- For the sole purpose of better supporting you within the coaching relationship.
We never share sensitive data with third parties without your explicit permission.
5. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Provide, deliver, and personalise our coaching services.
- Respond to enquiries, bookings, and support requests.
- Notify you about changes to our services.
- Analyse anonymous usage trends to improve the website experience.
- Detect, prevent, and address technical or security issues.
- Comply with our legal and administrative obligations.
We do not use your data for advertising, profiling, or automated decision-making that could have a significant effect on you.
6. Our Use of AI Tools
We occasionally use AI tools (such as large language models) to work more efficiently — for example, drafting summaries, preparing session notes, or analysing anonymous usage trends.
Our commitment to you:
- Any data processed by AI tools is de-identified or aggregated beforehand. Your personally identifiable information is never input into a public AI system without your explicit knowledge and consent.
- AI tools assist our work — they do not make decisions about you. All final coaching, contractual, and service decisions are made by a human.
- We do not use AI for automated decisions that could have legal, financial, or similarly significant effects on you.
7. Cookies and Tracking
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to analyse site traffic and remember your preferences. Our analytics provider (Google Analytics) may collect usage data such as your IP address, browser type, pages visited, and time on site.
You can adjust your cookie preferences at any time using the cookie settings link in the website footer. If you choose to disable cookies, some parts of the site may not function as intended.
8. Trusted Service Providers
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We share data only with the trusted tools and platforms we use to run this business, all of which are bound by their own data protection agreements:
| Service Provider | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Google Workspace | Email, document storage, and business communications |
| Zoom | Video coaching sessions |
| YouCanBookMe | Scheduling and appointment booking |
| Google Analytics | Anonymous website traffic analysis |
| Website Hosting Provider | Serving this website securely |
If our site includes embedded content from third-party websites (e.g. videos or articles), those sites may collect data about you independently. We recommend reviewing their privacy policies.
9. International Data Transfers
Some of our service providers may store or process your data on servers outside your home country. We use providers that maintain industry-standard safeguards (such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent frameworks) to ensure your data remains protected regardless of where it is processed.
10. Security and Data Retention
We take reasonable and commercially appropriate measures to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, loss, or misuse. However, no method of transmission over the internet is entirely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We retain your information only for as long as necessary to deliver our services, fulfil our legal obligations, or resolve any disputes. Data that is no longer required is deleted or anonymised on a regular basis.
11. Your Privacy Rights
Regardless of where you live, we are committed to honouring your rights over your personal data:
| Your Right | What It Means |
|---|---|
| Access | Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. |
| Correction | Ask us to correct any inaccurate or incomplete information. |
