1. Who I am

This website and my coaching practice, Dashing You, are run by:
Daria Semina
Via Frugoni 2, 20162 Milano (MI), Italy
dariasemina@yahoo.com

I am the data controller for the personal data described in this policy. You can reach me at the email address above for any question about your data.

2. What data I collect and why

Website usage data

• What: your IP address, time of visit and browser type.
• Why I use it: to keep the site working and secure.
• Legal basis: legitimate interest.

Enquiry and booking details

• What: your name, email, preferred date and time, and language.
• Why I use it: to reply to you and arrange sessions.
• Legal basis: your consent, and steps taken at your request before we agree to work together.

Client information

• What: your contact details, session history, your goals for coaching and my session notes.
• Why I use it: to deliver coaching sessions to you.
• Legal basis: contract (our agreement to work together).

Wellbeing and health-related information you choose to share

• What: for example stress, sleep, physical sensations, relevant medical or injury information and past experiences.
• Why I use it: to make sessions safe and appropriate for you.
• Legal basis: your explicit consent.

I only ask for what I need. You are never required to share health-related information, but some of it can help me keep your sessions safe, and I will explain why before I ask.
I do not use your data for automated decision-making or profiling, and I do not sell your data.

3. Sensitive information

Because embodiment coaching can touch on how you feel in your body and on personal experiences, you may share information about your health or wellbeing. This is "special category" data under the GDPR. I only collect and keep it with your explicit consent, which you can withdraw at any time (see section 8). I store it separately from general contact details wherever I can and keep it to the minimum that is useful.

4. Confidentiality of sessions

What you share in sessions stays between us. I will not tell anyone you are my client or share what you tell me without your permission, with these limited exceptions:

• there is a serious risk of harm to you or to someone else and I believe sharing is necessary to protect life or safety;
• I am legally required to disclose information, for example by a court or authority; or
• you ask me to share information with someone, such as your doctor or therapist.

Where possible I will tell you before sharing anything. I may discuss cases with a supervisor or peer consultation group in anonymised form, without details that identify you.
I do not record sessions unless you agree in advance, and I will delete any recording at the agreed time.

5. Who I share data with

I use a small number of service providers who process data on my behalf, only to run the practice:

• Tilda Platform Cloud Services Co. LLC: website hosting and technical management of site files.
• Register S.p.A.: domain management.
• Google Fonts: fonts displayed on the site.
• Yahoo Mail: sending and receiving email.
• Zoom: online sessions.
• Unsplash and Pexels: image content shown on the site (these may set their own cookies).

Where a provider processes data outside the European Economic Area, I rely on a lawful safeguard, such as an adequacy decision or standard contractual clauses. I may also disclose data to authorities where the law requires it.

6. How long I keep your data

• Enquiries that do not become coaching: deleted after 12 months.
• Client records and session notes: kept for the time we work together and for 3 years afterwards, then deleted or anonymised.
• Invoices and payment records: kept for 10 years, as Italian accounting and tax rules require.
• Website usage data: according to the retention settings of the hosting provider and any analytics tool.

7. How I protect your data

I use password-protected devices and accounts, keep notes in a secure location, limit access to myself, and use reputable providers. If I ever become aware of a data breach that puts you at risk, I will inform you and the Italian data protection authority as the law requires.

8. Your rights

You can ask me at any time to:

• access your data and receive a copy;
• correct information that is wrong or incomplete;
• delete your data (the right to be forgotten);
• restrict or object to how I use it;
• receive your data in a portable format;
• withdraw any consent you gave, without affecting what happened before you withdrew.

Write to dariasemina@yahoo.com. I will reply within one month. I may need to confirm your identity first, and some records, such as invoices, I am legally required to keep.

9. Cookies

This site uses cookies. Essential cookies are always on because the site needs them. Analytics and advertising cookies are off by default and only set if you accept them through the cookie banner. You can change your choice at any time through "Cookie Settings" on the site, and you can also delete cookies in your browser. Cookies set by third parties, such as the providers in section 5, are governed by their own policies.

10. Booking forms

When you submit a form on this site, I use the details only to reply to you and arrange sessions. By submitting it, you agree to this policy.

11. Changes

I may update this policy. The date at the top shows the latest version. If I make an important change, I will tell current clients directly.
