- About This Site
This website is operated by Kirsten Pevny, established in
Guernsey. By using this website, you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not
agree, please do not use the site.
Access to the site is provided on a temporary basis. We may suspend, withdraw, or
amend the site without notice. We are not responsible if the site is unavailable at any
time. You are responsible for ensuring that anyone accessing the site through your
internet connection complies with these Terms. - Children’s Privacy
This website is not directed at individuals under the age of 18, and we do not
knowingly collect personal data from children. - General Information
The information on this site is for general purposes only. We are not responsible for
any loss arising from reliance on this site. We do not guarantee the accuracy of
content or accept responsibility for external websites linked to or from this site.
All site content is protected by copyright. You may not reproduce, republish, store, or
modify any part of this site without our prior written permission. - Personal Information We Collect
We may collect and process the following information:
(a) Information about your visits to and use of the website (such as IP
address, browser type, referral source, length of visit, and pages viewed).
This helps us administer the site and improve its usability.
(b) Information you provide when registering with us, subscribing to updates,
or contacting us directly. Please note that while we take steps to protect
personal data, the transfer of information over the internet is never completely
secure.
(c) Personally identifiable information, including your name, contact details
and any communications with us. Where relevant, we may collect payment
details (such as debit/credit card information) in order to process transactions
securely. We may also record comments, feedback, service reviews and
recommendations that you choose to provide. These may be used
anonymously unless you have given us permission to identify you.
- How We Use Your Information
We may use your personal information to:
Provide you with updates about our activities, including but not limited to
articles, blogs, talks, consultancy, meditation classes, membership clubs,
book clubs, or events.
Invite you to workshops, courses, or other events.
Maintain a register of attendance at events. - Communicate with you about services, resolve disputes, or enforce
agreements.
We may contact you by email, telephone, or other agreed communication methods
(such as messaging services). - Third-Party Services and Security
Our website and services are supported by third-party providers, such as web
hosting, mailing list services, and analytics tools. We do our best to use reputable
providers who apply appropriate protections to personal data. Some providers may
process data outside Guernsey; where this occurs, we rely on safeguards
recognised under data protection law, such as transfers to countries with adequate
protection or contractual protections required by law.
The security of your personal information is important to us, and we take reasonable
measures to protect it. However, no method of transmission over the internet or
method of electronic storage is completely secure. While we strive to use
commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot
guarantee its absolute security. - Cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies to improve your browsing experience.
These may include remembering your preferences, helping you navigate the site,
and analysing website traffic. Some cookies are essential for the website to function,
while others (such as analytics or marketing cookies) are optional.
When you first visit our site, you will be asked whether you consent to the use of
non-essential cookies through a cookie banner. Your choice will normally be
remembered for future visits. However, if you clear your browser cookies, use private
browsing, or access the site through a VPN, you may be asked again to confirm your
preferences.
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time through your browser settings.
Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality.
- Data Retention
We keep personal information only for as long as necessary for the purposes
described in this Privacy Notice, or as required by law.
Examples include:
Mailing list data is kept until you unsubscribe.
Event attendance records are kept for up to 6 years for audit and legal
purposes.
Consultancy communications and records are kept for up to 6 years after the
engagement ends. - Financial and tax records are kept for 6–7 years, as required by law.
Some records are kept for six years because this is the standard legal limitation
period for most contractual and civil claims, meaning we may need to rely on them to
resolve disputes or meet our legal obligations.
After these periods, data is securely deleted or anonymised. - Your Rights
We have a legal duty to keep the information we hold about you accurate and up to
date. Please let us know if your details change.
Under the Data Protection (Bailiwick of Guernsey) Law, 2017, you have the following
rights:
To be informed – to know how we use your personal data.
To access – to ask for a copy of the data we hold about you.
To correct – to have inaccurate or incomplete data put right.
To delete – to ask us to erase your data (“the right to be forgotten”). - To restrict use – to limit how your data is processed in certain situations.
To move your data – to receive your data in a usable format or transfer it to
another provider (“data portability”).
To object – to object to your data being used for particular purposes.
To avoid automated decisions – not to be subject to decisions made only by
technology without human involvement.
To withdraw consent – to withdraw any consent you’ve previously given, at
any time.
If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please contact us at
via the contact form.
