Privacy Policy

Last Updated: 11/08/26

This Privacy Policy explains how Trevor Doherty ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses and protects personal data when you visit https://www.trevordoherty.ie/ (the "Website") or otherwise interact with us.

We are committed to handling your personal data in line with the UK/EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable Irish data protection law.

1. Who We Are

Trevor Doherty works with organisations to develop people managers who can lead through others — not just deliver through tasks. Drawing on a background in Business Excellence and Lean transformation, Trevor helps leaders build a coaching mindset that strengthens performance, capability and culture.

For the purposes of data protection law, Trevor Doherty is the data controller for personal data collected via this Website.

You can contact us at: hello@trevordoherty.ie

2. What Personal Data We Collect

We collect personal data in the following ways:

  • Contact Forms: When you submit an enquiry or contact form on our Website, we collect the information you provide, which may include your name, email address, and any message content you choose to share. Our contact forms are provided and processed through our website platform, Squarespace.

  • Website Analytics: We use Squarespace's built-in analytics to understand how visitors use our Website (for example, pages visited and general visitor statistics). This may involve the collection of technical data such as IP address, browser type, and device information, depending on Squarespace's own analytics configuration.

We do not operate a website login or user account system, and we do not currently operate a newsletter or email marketing list.

3. How We Use Your Personal Data

We use the personal data we collect for the following purposes:

  • To respond to enquiries submitted through our contact forms

  • To understand and improve how visitors use our Website, via analytics

  • To maintain records relevant to our coaching and consultancy services, where you become a client

We do not sell your personal data, and we do not use it for any purpose beyond those set out above without first obtaining your consent, where required.

4. Legal Basis for Processing

Where GDPR applies, we rely on the following legal bases to process your personal data:

  • Legitimate interests: to respond to enquiries and operate and improve our Website

  • Consent: where you have actively provided information through a form, submission of that form constitutes your consent to our contacting you in response

  • Contract: where processing is necessary to provide services you have engaged us for

5. Data Sharing and Third Parties

We use third-party service providers to help operate our Website, specifically Squarespace, which hosts our Website, processes contact form submissions, and provides website analytics. We rely on the security, data protection and privacy measures put in place by our third-party service providers, and we recommend reviewing Squarespace's own privacy policy for further detail on how they process data on our behalf.

We do not otherwise share, sell, or disclose your personal data to third parties, except where required by law.

6. Data Storage and Security

We do not maintain a separate database or CRM outside of the tools provided by our third-party service providers. Personal data submitted via our Website is stored and managed through Squarespace.

We rely on the data security protocols and safeguards implemented by our third-party service providers to protect personal data from unauthorised access, loss, or misuse. We recommend reviewing Squarespace's security documentation for further information.

7. Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. Where you ask us to delete your data, we will remove it in accordance with Section 8 below, subject to any legal obligation to retain certain records.

8. Your Rights

Under GDPR, you have a number of rights in relation to your personal data, including the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you

  • Request correction of inaccurate personal data

  • Request erasure of your personal data

  • Object to or restrict our processing of your personal data

  • Request a copy of your data in a portable format

  • Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

As we do not hold personal data in any location other than the CRM operated through our website platform, if you would like your data removed, please email us at hello@trevordoherty.ie and we will action your request.

In Ireland, the supervisory authority for data protection matters is the Data Protection Commission.

9. Cookies

Our Website may use cookies as part of the standard functionality provided by our website platform, Squarespace, including for analytics purposes. For further detail on the specific cookies used, please refer to Squarespace's own cookie and privacy documentation.

10. Children's Privacy

Our Website and services are intended for business professionals and are not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, operational, or regulatory reasons. Please refer back to this page periodically, as this is the definitive and up-to-date version of our Privacy Policy. The date at the top of this page indicates when it was last revised.
