This Privacy Policy explains how Greg Kurnikov trading as a sole trader (“I”, “me”, “my”) collects, uses and protects personal data through this website, gregkurnikov.com, including when you contact me through the website.

I am committed to handling personal data fairly, lawfully and transparently in line with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

Website: gregkurnikov.com

2. THE PERSONAL DATA I COLLECT

I may collect and process the following personal data:

  • Your name

  • The content of your enquiry, message or correspondence
  • Technical information generated when you use the website, such as:
    • IP address
    • browser type
    • device information
    • basic server log data
  • Any other information you choose to send to me

I do not intentionally collect special category personal data through this website or through the questionnaires used in paid assessments. Participants in paid assessments are asked not to include special category personal data in their answers. Where such data is volunteered, it will be handled with additional care and only to the extent necessary to deliver the service.


3. HOW I COLLECT PERSONAL DATA

I collect personal data when:

  • You complete a contact form on the website
  • You communicate with me through the website
  • You contact me about a potential or ongoing engagement
  • You browse the website and standard technical information is collected through hosting, security or website systems

4. HOW I USE YOUR PERSONAL DATA

I use personal data for the following purposes:

  • To respond to enquiries and messages
  • To discuss, prepare or manage potential engagements or services
  • To provide services and maintain client relationships
  • To operate, secure and improve the website
  • To keep appropriate business records
  • To comply with legal or regulatory obligations
  • To establish, exercise or defend legal claims where necessary

4A. PERSONAL DATA COLLECTED THROUGH PAID ASSESSMENTS

Where you purchase a paid assessment service such as the Individual Invincibility Blueprint, additional personal data is collected and processed:

  • Your responses to a structured online questionnaire about your own work situations and management practice, completed via a secure form
  • Payment information processed through Stripe to take payment for the service
  • The written assessment report produced from your responses

This information is used only to deliver the assessment, produce and deliver the report, support you in connection with the service, and meet legal, tax and accounting obligations.

Where an employer commissions assessments on behalf of individual employees under a separate engagement, the employer receives only a themes-level summary across the group. Individual answers and individual reports remain confidential to each participant.

Questionnaire responses and reports are retained for up to 24 months from delivery, after which they are deleted, unless a longer period is necessary for contractual, legal, regulatory, tax, insurance or accounting purposes.


5. LAWFUL BASES FOR PROCESSING

I rely on one or more of the following lawful bases under the UK GDPR:

  • Contract
    Where processing is necessary to take steps at your request before entering into a contract, or to perform a contract with you
  • Legitimate interests
    Where processing is necessary for legitimate business purposes, including responding to enquiries, managing relationships, protecting the website and running the business
  • Legal obligation
    Where processing is necessary to comply with legal or regulatory requirements
  • Consent
    Where consent is required for a specific activity, I will ask for it

6. WHO I SHARE PERSONAL DATA WITH

I do not sell personal data.

I may share personal data with trusted third parties where reasonably necessary, such as:

  • Website hosting and IT service providers
  • Payment processors used to take and process payments for paid services (currently Stripe)
  • Website form, email, security or technical service providers
  • Professional advisers such as legal, accounting or insurance advisers
  • Regulators, courts, law enforcement or other authorities where required by law
  • Clients or counterparties where this is necessary in connection with an engagement and lawful to do so

These recipients will only receive personal data where there is a legitimate reason for them to do so.


7. INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS

Some service providers may process data outside the UK. Where that happens, I will take reasonable steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place in accordance with applicable data protection law.


8. HOW LONG I KEEP PERSONAL DATA

I keep personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including to respond to enquiries, maintain records, meet legal, regulatory, tax, insurance or accounting obligations, and resolve disputes.

As a general guide:

  • Website enquiry data is usually kept for up to 12 months
  • Client and engagement-related records may be kept for longer where necessary for contractual, legal, regulatory, tax or insurance purposes

Retention periods may be extended where reasonably necessary to protect legal rights or comply with obligations.


9. SECURITY

I take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so I cannot guarantee absolute security.
