At Leda Fay Yoga, I respect your privacy and am committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how your personal data is collected, used and stored when you visit my website, subscribe to my newsletter, or register for classes, workshops, trainings and retreats.

2. Website Hosting

My website is operated using WordPress and hosted by Bluehost, a service of Newfold Digital, Inc. The servers that store and deliver the website are located in Frankfurt am Main, Germany.

When you visit the website, certain technical information may be automatically processed, including your IP address, browser type, operating system, date and time of access, and pages requested.

This information is processed where necessary to provide the website, maintain its security and ensure its technical functionality, based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

3. Booking and Registration Forms

I use Tally to collect registrations and enquiries for yoga classes, workshops, gong meditation trainings, retreats and other offerings.

Depending on the form, the information collected may include:

• Name and contact details
• Billing address
• Information relevant to your booking
• Previous experience and learning interests
• Payment and registration information
• Other information you voluntarily provide

This information is used to process your registration, communicate with you, organise the relevant event and fulfil contractual obligations.

The legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR for booking-related processing. Where applicable, legal obligations such as invoicing and tax recordkeeping are based on Article 6(1)(c) GDPR.

Form submissions are processed using Tally, a service provided by Tally BV, Belgium.

4. Newsletter

I use Mailchimp to manage and send my newsletter.

When you subscribe, I process your email address and any additional information you voluntarily provide.

Newsletter subscriptions are based on your consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.

You may withdraw your consent at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link included in each newsletter or contacting me directly.

Mailchimp is operated by The Rocket Science Group LLC, part of Intuit, in the United States. Personal data may be transferred outside the European Economic Area.

Further information: https://www.intuit.com/privacy/statement/

5. Communication

If you contact me by email, telephone or through a registration form, I process the information you provide to respond to your enquiry.

Depending on the nature of the communication, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR (contractual or pre-contractual measures) or Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in responding to enquiries).

6. Payments and Invoicing

When you book a paid service, I process the information necessary to administer payments, issue invoices and maintain legally required financial records.

For bank transfers, this may include your name, payment amount, payment reference and relevant transaction details.

Processing is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR and Article 6(1)(c) GDPR.

7. Data Retention

Personal data is retained only for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, unless longer retention is required by law.

Booking and communication records are retained according to their purpose and applicable legal requirements.

Invoices, accounting documents and other tax-relevant records are retained for the statutory retention periods applicable in Germany.

Newsletter information is retained while your subscription remains active, subject to any limited retention necessary to document consent or comply with legal obligations.

8. Sharing of Personal Data

Your personal information is not sold to third parties.

Where necessary, data may be shared with service providers involved in website hosting, form processing, email communication and business administration.

Such processing takes place under applicable contractual and data-protection arrangements.

9. Cookies and Similar Technologies

This website does not use analytics, advertising or tracking cookies. Fonts, scripts and styles are stored on the website’s own server, so visiting the website does not load content from third-party services.

The hosting provider may set one technically necessary cookie (nfd-enable-cf-opt), which helps deliver the website quickly and expires after 24 hours.

Links to Instagram, Facebook, SoundCloud and booking forms are ordinary links. No data is sent to these services unless you click a link, after which their own privacy policies apply.

Where legally required, non-essential technologies will only be used with appropriate consent.

10. Your Rights

Under the GDPR, you have the right, where the relevant legal conditions are met, to:

• Request access to your personal data
• Request correction of inaccurate information
• Request deletion of your personal data
• Request restriction of processing
• Request data portability
• Object to certain processing activities
• Withdraw consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority.

For Berlin, this is the Berliner Beauftragte für Datenschutz und Informationsfreiheit.

To exercise your rights, please contact: ledafay.yoga@gmail.com

11. Changes to This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated to reflect changes in legal requirements, website functionality or the services used.
