Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.
Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.
Object to processing of your personal data. Where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.
Request restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios: (a) if you want us to establish the data’s accuracy; (b) where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it; (c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (d) you have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.
Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.
Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.

4. COACHING CONTENT AND DELIVERY
-The Company delivers coaching content tailored to each individual Client. At the outset of the coaching session or program the Company will discuss with the Client the goals of coaching for that Client. The Company will then outline its recommended coaching plan or program, which will be discussed and agreed between the Company and the Client before coaching commences.
-However, coaching is a fluid and dynamic process which adapts and changes in accordance with the development and progression of the sessions and the needs of the Client. As such, initial coaching structures may be modified as the need arises. The Company recommends that Clients regularly give feedback to the Company on how the coaching strategies and interventions are working for them, in order that modifications or enhancements may be made along the process to be able to maximise the benefit of the sessions for the Client.

-The Company endeavours at all times to provide high quality and appropriate coaching for every Client. There are many different types of coaching interventions available, and the Company encourages Clients to provide honest information to the Company of their situation both at the outset and ongoing, as well as honest feedback throughout the coaching in order that the Company is able to provide the best service possible to the Client.
-In the unlikely event that a Client considers that a coaching session provided by the Company was of an unsatisfactory standard, the Company encourages the Client to inform the Company of this at the earliest possible opportunity, and in any event no later than 24 hours after the coaching session was delivered. The Company will then either use reasonable endeavours to provide an alternative coaching session to the Client, or will offer the Client a 50% refund for the coaching session. Any claims under this clause for a refund or alternative coaching session will not be valid if initiated more than 24 hours after the delivery of the coaching session.
