After reaching out to me and before you commit to one of my guidance programs, you will receive an agreement in which an explanation is included how and for how long I will store your personal data.
However, provided personal information will be deleted immediately the moment I receive a request from you personally to do so.

I would like to emphasize that by collecting data via the services I use, it will not be possible for me to see any of your personal data like your home-address, telephone numbers. I also checked all statistic overviews: your IP-address and the country you are the moment you visit my website, is not revealed to me.

When posting a comment, subscribing to any content at this site, or submitting the contact-form, you are giving voluntary permission to store your name and email-address exactly as provided by you.

Posting comments in a world like ours, always needs to be done with most care, after thinking twice. When posting a comment, your comment becomes public directly after approval of me, the site owner. Please note that, after approval, reactions underneath each post will remain visible. In case of any harmful remarks that might injure other people, or if they are intended to be disrespectful or malicious in any way, the site owner might decide to refuse or delete your comment without any warning.

Comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
