3. Coaching Confidentiality
Stone Coaching recognizes the importance of privacy and trust within the coaching relationship.
Information shared during private coaching sessions is treated with care and professional discretion, subject to applicable law and the terms of any separate coaching agreement.
Confidentiality may be limited when disclosure is required by law, necessary to address a serious safety concern, or otherwise authorized by the client.
For corporate or employer-sponsored coaching engagements, any arrangements regarding information shared with sponsoring organizations should be outlined in the applicable coaching agreement.
Coaching confidentiality should not be understood as equivalent to the legally protected confidentiality or privilege that may apply to certain licensed healthcare or mental health professionals.
4. Website Analytics and Cookies
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to support website functionality, understand visitor activity, and improve the browsing experience.
Our website platform and authorized service providers may collect technical information, such as browser type, device information, pages visited, and general location derived from an IP address.
You may be able to manage cookies through your browser settings or any cookie preference tools available on our website.
Where required by applicable law, we will obtain consent before using nonessential cookies or tracking technologies.
5. Third-Party Service Providers
Stone Coaching may use trusted third-party providers to support website hosting, appointment scheduling, payment processing, email communications, and other business operations.
These providers may process information on our behalf to deliver their services and are subject to their own privacy and security practices.
We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect legal rights or safety, or in connection with a legitimate business transfer, subject to applicable legal requirements.
We do not authorize service providers to use personal information for unrelated purposes on our behalf.
6. Data Security and Retention
We take reasonable administrative and technical precautions to protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or misuse.
However, no electronic transmission or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.
We retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including providing services, maintaining appropriate business records, and complying with legal obligations.

Depending on your location and applicable privacy laws, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of certain personal information.
You may also have rights to limit certain uses of your information or withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
