Privacy Policy

Last updated: 18th December 2025

This privacy policy explains how Anthony Punshon (“I”, “me”, “my”) collects and uses personal information when you visit anthonypunshon.uk and when you contact me about talks, workshops, or speaking.


1) Who I am

Data controller: Anthony Punshon
Email: [email protected]
Website: anthonypunshon.uk


2) What information I collect

Information you provide

When you use the contact form (or email me), you may provide:

  • Your name

  • Your job title / role (optional)

  • Organisation / school name

  • Email address

  • Your message (and any details you choose to include)


Information collected automatically

When you use the website, some technical information may be collected automatically as part of normal website operation, such as:

  • IP address

  • Browser/device information

  • Basic usage information (for example, pages visited and time spent)


3) How I use your information

I use your personal information to:

  • Respond to your enquiry

  • Communicate with you about the service you’ve asked about (for example, discussing a workshop, presentation, or booking)

  • Keep a simple record of our conversation so I can follow up appropriately

  • Maintain and improve the website (for example, ensuring it works properly and remains secure)


I do not use contact form submissions to send newsletters or ongoing marketing unless you explicitly ask me to.


4) Lawful basis for processing

Under the UK GDPR, I process personal data on the basis of:


Legitimate interests – where it’s necessary to respond to your enquiry and communicate with you in a way you would reasonably expect when you contact me.

If you later request something specific (for example, a call, a quote, or session details), I will use your information to fulfil that request.


5) Who I share your information with

I keep your information private. However, your data may be processed by trusted service providers who support the website and communication tools I use (for example, website hosting, form handling, and email delivery).


These providers only process personal information on my instructions and for the purposes described in this policy.


I do not sell your data or share it for advertising purposes.


6) Where your data is stored

Your information may be stored within the systems used to operate this website (for example, the contact form platform and the email system used to respond to you). Some providers may store data outside the UK.


Where personal data is transferred internationally, appropriate safeguards are used in line with UK data protection law.


7) How long I keep your information

I keep personal information only as long as necessary for the purpose it was collected.


As a general guide:

  • If we don’t proceed beyond an enquiry, I will normally delete or anonymise the information within 12 months.

  • If we proceed with a booking or ongoing arrangement, I may keep relevant records for up to 6 years for administrative and record-keeping purposes.


8) Your rights

You have rights under UK data protection law, including the right to:

  • Access the personal information I hold about you

  • Correct inaccurate information

  • Request deletion (in certain circumstances)

  • Restrict processing (in certain circumstances)

  • Object where I rely on legitimate interests

  • Request portability (in certain circumstances)


To exercise any of these rights, email [email protected].


9) Complaints

If you have concerns, please contact me first and I’ll do my best to resolve them.


You can also complain to the UK supervisory authority:

Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).


10) Security

I take reasonable steps to protect personal information. No system is completely secure, but I limit access to enquiry data and use reputable tools for website operation and communication.


11) Cookies

This website may use cookies or similar technologies for basic functionality and security.


If optional cookies (such as analytics) are used, they will be managed through a cookie notice/settings where required.


12) Links to other websites

This website may link to external websites (for example, book links). If you follow a link, that website will have its own privacy policy and I’m not responsible for how it handles your information.


13) Children

This website is intended for adults (for example, school staff and workplace contacts). It is not designed to collect personal information from children.


14) Updates to this policy

I may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be published on this page, with the “Last updated” date at the top.
