Privacy Policy
Last updated: 21 August 2026
At STOP RIPPing, your privacy is important to me. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information I may collect through this website, how that information is used and stored, and your rights under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and applicable UK data protection law.
1. Information I Collect
When you complete the contact form on this website, I may collect your name, email address, mobile telephone number if you choose to provide it, information you include in your message, and the date and time your enquiry is submitted.
The website may also collect certain technical information through cookies and analytics services. This can include your IP address, browser and device type, pages visited and information about how you use the website.
Because STOP RIPPing provides help with personal and emotional difficulties, information you voluntarily include in an enquiry may sometimes contain sensitive personal information. I encourage you not to provide more personal information than is necessary when making your initial enquiry.
2. How I Use Your Information
I use information provided through this website to respond to your enquiry, arrange an initial session, answer questions about working with me, maintain appropriate records where necessary, and operate and improve the website.
I do not sell, rent or trade your personal information, and I do not use information you provide through an enquiry for unrelated marketing without an appropriate lawful basis.
3. Contact Forms and Jotform
Enquiries submitted through this website are processed using Jotform, which provides the online contact-form service used by STOP RIPPing.
Information submitted through the form may also be stored within my email system so that I can respond to your enquiry and arrange an appointment.
Personal information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected and to meet any applicable legal, professional or regulatory obligations.
Reasonable technical and organisational measures are taken to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse or disclosure.
4. Information Shared When Working With Me
If you decide to work with me, you may choose to share personal and sensitive information during our sessions.
Information shared during our professional work together is treated confidentially and handled with appropriate care and in accordance with applicable legal and professional responsibilities.
Information provided on this website or in my book, The End of RIPP, is for general informational and psychoeducational purposes. Reading the website or book does not, by itself, establish a professional client relationship with me.
A professional client relationship begins when we have agreed to work together.
5. Sharing Your Information
Your personal information is not sold, rented or traded.
Information may be processed by trusted service providers where this is necessary for the operation of the website, communication with you or delivery of online sessions. These may include services used for contact forms, email, website hosting, analytics and online communication.
Information may also be disclosed where I am legally required to do so.
6. Cookies, Google Analytics and Google Ads
This website uses cookies and similar technologies to support website functionality and help me understand how the website is being used.
The website uses Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to provide statistical information about website use. Depending on your cookie choices and the way these services are configured, this may include information such as pages visited, time spent on the website, browser and device information and approximate geographic information.
If you arrive at this website after interacting with a Google advertisement, Google Ads may also process information about that interaction and subsequent activity on the website for purposes such as measuring advertising performance and conversions.
Google processes information in accordance with its own privacy policies.
You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings and, where provided, the website's cookie controls. Disabling some cookies may affect certain website functions.
7. Your Data Protection Rights
Depending on the circumstances and the lawful basis on which your information is processed, UK data protection law may give you the right to request access to your personal information, ask for inaccurate information to be corrected, request deletion in appropriate circumstances, restrict or object to certain processing, and request transfer of certain information.
Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent.
You also have the right to raise a concern with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) if you believe your personal information has not been handled appropriately.
If you wish to exercise your data protection rights, please contact me using the contact details provided on this website.
8. Sensitive Personal Information
Please avoid including unnecessary medical, health or other sensitive personal information when making your initial enquiry. The contact form is intended primarily to allow you to contact me and arrange an initial session.
If you subsequently work with me, information you choose to share during our sessions will be treated confidentially and handled in accordance with applicable legal and professional responsibilities.
9. Contact
If you have questions about this Privacy Policy, wish to exercise your data protection rights or have concerns about how your personal information has been handled, please contact me using the contact form provided on this website.
10. Submitting the Contact Form
By submitting the contact form, you acknowledge that you have had the opportunity to read this Privacy Policy and understand that the information you provide will be processed for the purpose of responding to your enquiry and, where requested, arranging an initial session.
Submitting an enquiry does not oblige you to book a session or continue working with me.
11. Changes to This Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in the way STOP RIPPing operates, the services and technologies used by the website, or applicable legal requirements.
The most recent version of the Privacy Policy will always be published on this page.
