Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 6, 2026
Tony Smith Coaching publishes Your Story Matters and operates tonysmith-coaching.com. This Policy explains how information is handled when you visit this website, contact us, subscribe to the publication, or use a link to arrange a coaching conversation.
Information You Provide
The Contact form requests your name, email address, and message. Please share only what is needed for your inquiry. Do not send medical records, payment-card details, identification documents, or other sensitive information through a general website message.
The newsletter signup requests your email address. Follow any confirmation instructions provided during signup. Beehiiv supports the subscription and publication records used to deliver Your Story Matters.
Booking links take you to Calendly, where you provide the information requested for the selected appointment. Tony Smith Coaching may receive scheduling and contact details needed to administer your booking. See the Calendly Privacy Notice for Calendly's handling of information.
Information Collected Automatically
The website, publication, and their providers may receive technical and interaction information, such as an IP address, browser or device details, pages visited, referring pages, delivery information, and interactions with email or website links. Publication reports can include delivery, open, click, and subscription activity; email privacy tools can affect the accuracy of those measurements.
Beehiiv supplies the hosted website and publication platform. Website delivery also involves services such as Cloudflare and Google-hosted fonts. Platform functions may involve cookies, pixels, scripts, or similar technology.
Tony Smith Coaching currently uses Google Analytics 4 to understand website use and Meta Pixel to measure visits and campaign performance. These services may receive technical and interaction information as described in their policies. See our Cookie Policy for more information.
How Information Is Used
- To respond to inquiries and provide information you request.
- To administer newsletter delivery, confirmation where applicable, preferences, and unsubscribes.
- To coordinate requested discovery calls or coaching appointments.
- To operate, secure, troubleshoot, and understand use of the website and publication.
- To keep records reasonably needed for the relationship, prevent misuse, and meet applicable obligations.
A coaching relationship may involve a separate agreement or privacy notice. This general website Policy does not describe confidential coaching records in detail.
Service Providers and Disclosures
Providers support website hosting, publication delivery, booking, security, and related technical functions. Beehiiv processes some information for its publishers and carries out certain processing for its own purposes. Its notice does not replace this Policy for Tony Smith Coaching's handling of information. Relevant provider information includes:
- Beehiiv Privacy Policy — hosted platform and publication services.
- Calendly Privacy Notice — appointment scheduling.
- Cloudflare Privacy Policy — delivery and security services.
- Google's information about partner sites and apps — Google services, including Google Analytics 4 used for website measurement.
- Meta Privacy Policy — Meta services, including Meta Pixel used for visit and campaign measurement.
Information may also be disclosed when you request or authorize it, as reasonably needed to administer the service you request, or where disclosure is required or permitted by law to address legal obligations, misuse, or safety. Providers may process information in countries other than your own; their notices describe their practices.
Email Choices
You can unsubscribe through the link in a newsletter email. An unsubscribe or suppression record may remain so that your choice can be respected. Unsubscribing from the newsletter does not, by itself, cancel an appointment or prevent a response to a request you make.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
Our Cookie Policy explains the platform technology, Google Analytics 4, Meta Pixel, and available privacy controls. On a first visit, the site's cookie banner lets you accept cookies, customize your choice, or decline optional cookies. Changing browser settings or an email preference does not necessarily stop every technical request or all server-side processing.
Retention
Our approach is to keep personal information only for as long as reasonably needed for its purpose, the relationship, and applicable legal, accounting, security, or dispute-resolution needs. There is no single retention period for every record. Deletion requests may be subject to permitted retention requirements and provider backup or deletion processes.
Security
We take reasonable steps appropriate to the information and services involved to protect personal information. No website, transmission, or storage method is completely secure. Please avoid sending sensitive information through a general inquiry.
Children
This website and publication are intended for adults. Beehiiv's platform policies restrict use by people under 18. Please do not submit a child's personal information through this website. If you believe that a child has provided information, contact us so the circumstances can be reviewed.
Your Choices and Requests
Use the Contact page to ask about your information or request access, correction, or deletion. Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have additional rights, such as receiving a copy, objecting to certain processing, or withdrawing consent where processing relies on it. Not every right applies to every record or situation.
We may need information reasonably necessary to identify the relevant records and verify that a request is authorized. A request does not require us to erase information that applicable law allows or requires us to retain. Nothing in this Policy limits rights or complaint routes available under applicable law.
Third-Party Links
When you follow a booking or social-platform link, the destination has its own practices. Tony Smith Coaching also uses Meta Pixel and Google Analytics 4 on this website. See the Meta Privacy Policy and Google's information about partner sites and apps for information about those providers.
Changes to This Policy
Revisions will appear on this page with an updated date. Material changes will receive any additional notice required by applicable law. A revised website notice does not override a separate agreement or rights that apply to existing information.
