Who We Are
Super Life Coaching is a trading name of Optimal Media Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales (Company No. 15870473), registered office: 2 Jaya Close, Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire, LE13 0UU.
Optimal Media Ltd is the data controller responsible for your personal data. You can contact us at contact@superlifecoaching.com.
Important: The Nature of Our Service
Super Life Coaching provides life coaching and mindset coaching. This is not a medical, psychiatric, psychological or psychotherapeutic service, and it is not a substitute for professional healthcare, diagnosis or treatment. Please see our Coaching Disclaimer for full details.
Where We Get Your Data From
We collect personal data:
- Directly from you — when you complete our contact form, email us, telephone us, book a session, or speak with us during coaching sessions
- Automatically — technical data collected when you visit this website
- From our service providers — for example, booking details passed to us by Calendly, or confirmation of payment from Stripe
Information We Collect
Information You Provide
- Contact details — name, email address, telephone number, and the content of any message you send us
- Booking information — name, email address, and any details you choose to provide when scheduling via Calendly
- Coaching records — notes we make during or after sessions, goals discussed, and correspondence relating to your coaching
Payment Information
Payments are processed entirely by Stripe. We never see, receive or store your full card details. We retain only a record that a payment was made, the amount, and the service purchased.
Technical Information
Collected automatically when you visit the site: IP address, browser type and version, device type, pages visited and time of visit.
Sensitive and Special Category Information
Coaching conversations are open-ended, and you may choose to share information that counts as special category data under UK GDPR — for example, information about your mental or physical health, your beliefs, or your personal circumstances.
We do not ask you to provide this information, and you are never required to. However, if you do share it:
- Our lawful basis under Article 6 is performance of a contract (to deliver the coaching service you have engaged us for)
- Our condition under Article 9 is your explicit consent, given by choosing to share that information in the context of coaching
You can ask us at any time to delete specific information you have shared, or to stop recording notes about particular topics. Coaching notes are kept confidential and are not shared with any third party except where we are required to do so by law, or where there is a serious and immediate risk to your safety or the safety of others.
If you are experiencing a mental health difficulty, we would encourage you to speak to your GP or a qualified mental health professional. Coaching is not a replacement for that support.
How We Use Your Information and Our Lawful Basis
| What we do | Why | Lawful basis |
|---|---|---|
| Respond to your enquiries | To answer questions and discuss whether coaching is right for you | Legitimate interests |
| Schedule and manage coaching sessions | To deliver the service you booked | Performance of a contract |
| Keep coaching notes and records | To provide continuity and quality in your coaching | Performance of a contract (plus explicit consent for any special category data) |

| Maintain website security and functionality | To keep the site working and secure | Legitimate interests |

Providing your contact and booking details is necessary in order for us to deliver coaching to you. Anything you share during a session is entirely voluntary.
We do not use your data for marketing unless you have given explicit consent, which you can withdraw at any time.
Automated Decision-Making
We do not use your personal data for automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal effects or similarly significantly affects you.
Children
Our services are intended for adults aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will delete it.

We do not sell your data. We share it only with the following categories of recipient, each acting as a data processor or independent controller as noted:
| Recipient | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Calendly | Processor — scheduling | Name, email, booking details |
| Stripe | Independent controller — payment processing | Payment and transaction data |
| Vercel | Processor — website hosting | Technical/log data |
| Our accountant | Processor — bookkeeping and tax | Invoice and payment records |

- Stripe — stripe.com/privacy
- Vercel — vercel.com/legal/privacy-policy
International Transfers
Some of our providers are based outside the UK, primarily in the United States. Where personal data is transferred outside the UK, we take steps to ensure it remains protected by an appropriate safeguard under UK GDPR — which may include the UK Extension to the EU–US Data Privacy Framework where the provider is actively certified for the relevant category of data, or the UK International Data Transfer Agreement / Addendum where it is not.
We review the transfer mechanism applicable to each provider and, where required, carry out a transfer risk assessment. If you would like more detail about the safeguards applying to a specific provider, please contact us.
How Long We Keep Your Data
| Data | Retention period |
|---|---|
| Enquiries that do not lead to coaching | Up to 12 months |
| Coaching notes and client correspondence | Up to 3 years after our working relationship ends |
| Financial and tax records | 6 years, as required by HMRC |
| Website technical logs | Up to 30 days |
Data Security
We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, alteration or disclosure. Coaching notes are stored securely and accessible only to Sorin Lazar.

- Access the personal data we hold about you
