Usage Data
Usage Data is collected automatically when you use the Service. It is used in aggregate to understand and improve the site and is not used to identify you personally.
Tracking technologies and cookies
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to remember your preferences, keep the site working, and understand how the site is used so we can improve it. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may limit some features of the site.
SMS / Text messaging
If you opt in, we may send you text messages related to your application and coaching. Here is exactly what that means:
- Types of messages: booking confirmations, appointment reminders, follow-ups, and conversational replies to questions you ask us.
- Message frequency varies.
- Message and data rates may apply.
- Opting out and getting help: reply STOP to unsubscribe at any time, and reply HELP for help.
- We do not share or sell your phone number or your SMS consent to any third parties or affiliates for marketing purposes. Your number is used only to send the messages described here. Information may be passed to the service providers who deliver these messages on our behalf (for example, our text-messaging platform), but never to anyone for their own marketing.

How we use your personal data
- To review your application and decide whether coaching is a fit.
- To contact you, schedule calls, and provide coaching.
- To send the text messages described in the SMS section above (only if you opt in).
- To understand, maintain, and improve our website.
- To keep records of your communication preferences and consent.
We do not sell your information, and we do not use it for third-party advertising.
How your information is stored and shared
Your information is kept inside the everyday tools we use to run the business, such as our customer-management system, form provider, email, and text-messaging provider. These providers maintain their own security measures to protect your data, and we share your information only with the service providers who help us operate. We never sell your information, and we never give it to third parties or affiliates for their own marketing.
We may also disclose your information where required by law, in response to valid requests by public authorities, or in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, in which case your data remains protected under the terms of this policy. All of the above categories exclude text-messaging opt-in data and consent, which will not be shared with any third parties other than the providers delivering the messages you asked for.
Retention of your personal data
We keep your information for as long as you are engaged with us and for a reasonable period afterward, or as needed to meet our legal obligations, then delete or anonymize it. You can ask us to delete your information sooner.
Data security
We use reasonable measures to protect your personal information. No method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, so while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Analytics
We use website analytics tools to understand how the site is used and to improve it. These tools collect standard, non-identifying information such as pages visited and general device or browser type.
Payments
We do not collect or store payment card details on this website. Any payment for coaching is arranged separately, and if a payment processor is used, your information is handled under that processor's own privacy policy.
Your privacy rights
You can ask us to:
- See the personal information we hold about you.
- Correct anything that is wrong.
- Delete your information.
- Stop receiving text messages (see above) or other communications.
To make any of these requests, just email therealdylanjay@gmail.com.
Canadian privacy law (PIPEDA)
We handle your personal information in line with Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), which governs how private-sector businesses collect, use, and disclose personal information.
Children's privacy
Our website and services are intended for adults. They are not directed to anyone under 18, and we do not knowingly collect information from minors.
Links to other websites
Our site may contain links to other websites that we do not operate. We are not responsible for their privacy practices, and we encourage you to review the privacy policy of every site you visit.
