Privacy Policy

Last updated: 15 July 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how I collect, use, store and protect your information when you complete a quiz, questionnaire, assessment or form on this website.

I aim to keep this clear and human, because nobody needs a privacy policy that feels like it was written in a locked cupboard by someone allergic to normal words.

Who I am

I am Joanne Gibson, The ADHD Business Coach.

I support ADHD and neurodivergent entrepreneurs through workshops, coaching, resources, emails and related services.

For data protection purposes, I am the data controller for the personal information I collect and use.

What information I may collect

When you complete a quiz or form, I may collect:

• Your name.
• Your email address.
• Your quiz answers.
• Your quiz result or outcome.
• Information about whether you choose to join my email list.
• Basic technical information such as date, time, device or browser, depending on how the website and connected tools work.

Please do not share anything you do not want me to know.

Sensitive information

Some quiz answers may touch on personal information about ADHD, neurodivergence, disability, health, emotions, work patterns, overwhelm, support needs or lived experience.

You do not have to share more than you are comfortable sharing.

I only use this information for the purpose it was given, such as giving you a quiz result, sending a resource, understanding your needs, improving my services, or following up where you have asked me to.

How I collect your information

I may collect your information when you:

• Complete a quiz.
• Submit a form.
• Request your quiz result.
• Download a resource.
• Join my email list.
• Contact me after completing a quiz.

Why I use your information

I use your information to:

• Show or send your quiz result.
• Send you the resource, result, email or follow-up you asked for.
• Understand what people are finding difficult in business.
• Improve my workshops, coaching, offers, resources and content.
• Respond to questions.
• Keep basic records of quiz responses and consent.
• Send occasional emails about ADHD business support, workshops, resources and related offers, if you choose to join my email list.
• Meet legal, tax, accounting or business record responsibilities where needed.
• Keep my systems safe and working properly.

Lawful basis for using your information

Under UK data protection law, I need a lawful basis to use your personal information. I may rely on:

• Consent, when you choose to join my email list or ask to receive quiz results, resources or marketing emails.
• Legitimate interests, when I use quiz information to understand my audience, improve my services, respond to enquiries, keep business records, or run my business in a practical way, as long as this does not override your rights and freedoms.
• Contract, if the quiz or form is connected to a service, workshop or product you have bought or booked.
• Legal obligation, if I need to keep certain records for tax, accounting, legal or regulatory reasons.

Email list and marketing

If you choose to join my email list, I may send occasional emails about ADHD business support, workshops, resources, offers and related updates.

Joining the email list is optional.

You can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in an email, or by contacting me at joanne@adhdbusinesshq.com.

If you do not join my email list, I may still send emails needed to deliver something you requested, such as a quiz result or resource.

Who I share your information with

I do not sell your personal information.

I may share your information with trusted services that help me run my business, such as:

• Email marketing or CRM tools, if you choose to join my email list or request a resource.
• Google Workspace, Gmail, Google Drive, Google Calendar or Google Meet, for communication, storage, meetings and service delivery.
• Notion, if I use it to organise business information or host pages.
• Stripe, if a quiz connects to a paid product or service.
• Website hosting, form, automation or booking tools used to manage enquiries and communication.
• Professional advisers, such as an accountant, if needed.
• Legal or regulatory authorities, if required by law.

These services only receive the information needed for their role.

How I protect your information

I take reasonable steps to protect your personal information. This may include:

• Using password protected accounts.
• Using two factor authentication where available.
• Using trusted platforms with their own security systems.
• Limiting access to your information.
• Only collecting information I need.
• Keeping business information organised and secure.
• Deleting or archiving information when it is no longer needed.

No online system is completely risk free, but I take practical steps to keep your information safe.

How long I keep your information

I only keep your information for as long as I need it.

Quiz responses may be kept for as long as they are useful for understanding results, sending follow-up, improving services, or keeping appropriate business records.

Email list information is kept until you unsubscribe or ask me to remove it.

If you ask me to delete your information, I will do this where possible, unless I need to keep certain information for legal, tax, accounting or legitimate business reasons.

Your rights

You have rights over your personal information. Depending on the situation, you may have the right to:

• Ask for a copy of the personal information I hold about you.
• Ask me to correct information that is wrong or incomplete.
• Ask me to delete your information.
• Ask me to restrict how I use your information.
• Object to certain uses of your information.
• Withdraw consent, where I am relying on consent.
• Ask for your information to be transferred, where this applies.
• Complain to the Information Commissioner's Office if you are unhappy with how your information is handled.

Children

My quizzes, resources, workshops and services are designed for adults and business owners. I do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Links to other websites

The quiz, result page or follow-up emails may include links to other websites or platforms. I am not responsible for how other websites collect, use or protect your information. Please check their privacy policies if you use those sites.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

I may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The latest version will be available on this page.
