We are a learning and development consultancy providing training, professional supervision, coaching, and similar services through workshops, webinars, one-to-one and group sessions in various locations and online. We also provide supporting materials and assessment on the basis of various professional qualifications.
Lynda Tongue pays personal attention to how we maintain information about those who contact us. We occasionally send out information to those on our mailing list, but in accordance with GDPR we gain consent first. Our website uses cookies to collect the usual types of visitor information for analysis and website functionality. You can set your browser not to accept these, although some websites may then not function completely.
We do not provide any information about our contacts to any other organisations except where this is required for the award of qualifications such as by universities or other professional bodies.
Our lawful basis for maintaining records is as defined in the Information Commissioner’s Office (2018): “Contract: the processing is necessary for a contract you have with the individual, or because they have asked you to take specific steps before entering into a contract.” (p.13).
Our intended purposes for maintaining records include:
Information kept by us includes, where relevant and known, the following within our database: name, email address(es), address details, telephone and/or other contact details, interests, purchases, original contact method, status relating to qualifications we offer, attendances, webinar-related homeworks expected and received, services being provided, fees agreed, and sometimes notes of conversations that remind us of our discussions with you about current and potential services.
We also store audio recordings of professional sessions conducted with you, only after you have confirmed agreement to being recorded. These are stored under codes and you are provided with full access to your own recordings. For audio recordings of group activities such as supervisions, these are made available only to those engaged during the session.
