Privacy Policy
Introduction
Dr. Theresa Emmerich Kamper operates the website TheresaEmmerich.com. I'm committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how I handle your personal data. This policy explains what data I collect, how I use it, and your rights — in line with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.
This site is operated by Dr. Theresa Emmerich Kamper, a sole trader registered at 8 Sedgebrook Road, Greenwich, London, SE3 8LP, United Kingdom.
Information I Collect
Contact details (name, email address, and similar identifiers): to communicate with you, provide my courses and services, and, with your consent, send marketing communications.
Booking and payment information: to process your course booking or purchase, including the payment method you choose.
Website usage data: general analytics about how visitors use this site, used to improve it.
Legal Basis for Processing
Consent — for marketing communications and anywhere else I ask for your explicit agreement.
Contractual necessity — to fulfil my obligations to you when you book a course or make a purchase.
Legal obligation — to comply with requirements such as financial record-keeping and tax law.
Legitimate interests — for things like improving my services and preventing fraud, balanced against your rights.
How I Use Payment Information
When you make a payment on this site, your details are processed securely by my payment providers, including Wix Payments, PayPal, and Klarna where selected at checkout. I don't store your card details on my own servers. If you choose Klarna, I share relevant contact and order information with them so they can assess your eligibility and process your payment — this is handled in line with data protection law and Klarna's own privacy notice.

Marketing Communications
With your explicit consent, I may send you marketing communications about courses, products, or events that may interest you. I use Mailchimp to manage my mailing list. You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting me or using the unsubscribe link in any marketing email.
Cookies
This website, built on Wix, uses cookies that are necessary for it to function, along with analytics cookies that help me understand how the site is used. Where cookies aren't strictly necessary, I'll ask for your consent when you first visit. You can change your preferences at any time through the cookie banner or your browser settings.
Third Parties
I use a small number of trusted services to run my business: Mailchimp for email marketing, QuickBooks for accounting, Google Calendar for scheduling, and Wix Payments, PayPal, and Klarna to process payments. I don't sell your data, and I only share it where necessary to provide my services to you. Some of these providers are based outside the UK and EEA (for example, in the United States); where that's the case, your data is protected through appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses.
Data Security and Retention
I take reasonable technical and organisational measures to keep your data secure. I keep personal data only as long as necessary: financial and transaction records are typically kept for 6 years to meet UK tax obligations, and other personal data is deleted within a reasonable period once it's no longer needed, or as soon as you withdraw consent for marketing.
Your Rights
You have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to how I process your data, to receive your data in a portable format, and to withdraw consent for marketing at any time. To exercise any of these rights, email me at info@theresaemmerich.com.
If you're not satisfied with how I've handled your data, you also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office, the UK's data protection regulator.
Changes to This Policy
I'll update this page if my privacy practices change significantly.
