PRIVACY POLICY

Effective Date: 01 July 2024 (Last Updated: February 9, 2026)

This Privacy Policy applies between you, the User of this Website, and Helen Sterling, the owner and provider of this Website. I take the privacy of your information very seriously. This policy applies to our use of any and all Data collected by me or provided by you in relation to your use of helensterling.com.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully.

  1. Scope of this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies only to the actions of Helen Sterling and Users with respect to this Website. It does not extend to any websites that can be accessed from this Website including, but not limited to, any links I may provide to social media websites. For purposes of the applicable Data Protection Laws, I am the “data controller.” This means that I determine the purposes for which, and the manner in which, your personal data is processed.

  1. Data Collected

I may collect the following Data, which includes personal Data, from you:

  • Information you provide: This includes information provided at the time of inquiring about speaking engagements, subscribing to my newsletter, or requesting resources. This typically includes your name, job title, profession, and contact information such as email addresses and telephone numbers.
  • Event and Transaction Data: Details of transactions you carry out through the Site and details regarding your event requirements to ensure the fulfilment of my services.
  • Technical Data: Like many speakers, I automatically collect information about your visit to help me improve website content and navigation. This includes your IP address, operating system, browser type, and the way you interact with the content on this Site.
  1. How I Collect Data

I collect Data in two main ways: data given to me by you (for example, when you contact me through the Website, by telephone, or email); and data collected automatically (such as cookies used to distinguish you from other users and provide you with a better browsing experience).

  1. Our Use of Data

Any or all of the above Data may be required from time to time in order to provide you with the best possible service. Specifically, Data may be used for the following reasons:

  • Internal record keeping and the administration of my professional speaking engagements.
  • Improvement of my products and services, ensuring that content from the Site is presented in the most effective manner for you.
  • Transmission by email of marketing materials or leadership insights that may be of interest to you, where you have consented to be contacted for such purposes.
  • To carry out my obligations arising from any contracts entered into between you and me.

I may use your Data for the above purposes if I deem it necessary to do so for my legitimate interests. If you are not satisfied with this, you have the right to object in certain circumstances (see the section headed “Your Rights” below).

  1. Who I Share Data With

I do not sell your personal data. I may share your Data with the following groups for the following reasons:

  • Third-party service providers: This includes data processing companies, mailing houses, and technical advisors working on my behalf to help the website and my communication systems run smoothly.
  • Professional advisors: Including accountants or legal advisors to obtain professional advice.
  • Relevant authorities: To comply with any legal obligation, or in order to enforce or apply my terms and conditions.
  1. International Data Transfers

When I use your information as described in this Privacy Policy, it may occasionally involve sending your information around the world (for example, if I use a US-based email service like Mailchimp). By providing me with your personal information, you agree that I may transfer, store, and process your information in this manner. I take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

  1. Keeping Data Secure

I will use technical and organisational measures to safeguard your Data. For example, I store your Data on secure servers and use SSL technology (look for the lock icon in your browser) to encrypt data transfers. While I strive to protect your personal data, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure and is done at your own risk.

  1. Data Retention

Unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law, I will only hold your Data on my systems for the period necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy or until you request that the Data be deleted.

  1. Your Rights

You have the following rights in relation to your Data:

  • Right to access: The right to request copies of the information I hold about you at any time.
  • Right to correct: The right to have your Data rectified if it is inaccurate or incomplete.
  • Right to erase: The right to request that I delete or remove your Data from my systems.
  • Right to object: The right to object to my use of your Data including where I use it for my legitimate interests.

To make enquiries or exercise any of your rights, please contact me at: helen@helensterling.com. If you are not satisfied with the way a complaint is handled, you may refer your complaint to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).

  1. General

You may not transfer any of your rights under this Privacy Policy to any other person. If any court finds that any provision of this Privacy Policy is invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be deemed deleted, and the validity of the rest of the policy will not be affected. This Agreement will be governed by and interpreted according to the law of England and Wales.
