8. Cookies

Our website does not use analytics or advertising cookies. It only uses what it needs to work, such as the spam check on our enquiry form. You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time.

9. Children's data

Where we provide services to people under 16 (including coaching for children), we collect personal data from a parent or legal guardian and only with their explicit consent.

10. Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against loss, misuse or unauthorised access. Data in transit to our website and booking systems is encrypted via HTTPS. However, no system is 100% secure — please use strong, unique passwords and keep your login details private.

11. International transfers

Some of our service providers (e.g. email, social media) may store data outside the UK. Where this happens, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place under UK GDPR (such as Standard Contractual Clauses or adequacy decisions).

12. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be highlighted on our website. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page shows when the policy was last revised.
