Terms of service
Reground offers one-to-one coaching, workshops and group sessions for women. Coaching is a reflective, forward-looking conversation — it is not therapy, counselling, medical advice or a substitute for professional mental-health support. By booking a session you agree that you are responsible for your own decisions and wellbeing.
Bookings & payment
Sessions and event places are confirmed once payment is received. Prices are listed in GBP and include any applicable taxes. If a session needs to be rescheduled by Reground, you'll be offered the next available time or a full refund.
Cancellations
You can reschedule or cancel up to 48 hours before a session for a full credit or refund. Inside 48 hours, the session fee is non-refundable, but I'll always do my best to find a workable solution if life happens.
Confidentiality
What's shared in a session stays in the session. The only exceptions are where there is a serious risk of harm to you or someone else, or where disclosure is required by law.
Privacy policy
Reground only collects the information needed to deliver coaching: your name, email, anything you choose to share in enquiry messages, and session notes. Your data is stored securely, never sold, and only shared with third parties (such as payment or scheduling tools) where strictly necessary to run the service.
We are registered with the ICO under the company name Genyops Ltd.

All third parties are required to handle your data securely and only for the purpose we specify.
5. International data transfers
Where any of our service providers are based outside the UK or transfer data internationally, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place (such as UK adequacy decisions or Standard Contractual Clauses) before any transfer takes place.
6. How long we keep your data
We keep your personal data only for as long as necessary:
- Client records: 7 years from the end of the engagement (to comply with financial and legal obligations).

- Marketing consent: until you withdraw consent or for 3 years from your last engagement with our communications, whichever is sooner.
When data is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymise it.

We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, or disclosure. Where we identify a reportable data breach, we will notify the ICO within 72 hours and, where required, affected individuals without undue delay.
