Data Handling & Trust Architecture

This policy outlines the structural logic of how Strategic Clarity Collective processes, protects, and purges personal data. It is designed for clarity, not obscurity.

In our consulting practice, ambiguity is the enemy. The same principle applies to data. We do not collect data for collection's sake; every field in a form or cookie in a browser serves a specific operational purpose—either to deliver a diagnostic, schedule a strategy sprint, or secure a learning path.

Our infrastructure is built on the premise of Data Minimization. We request the minimum viable information required to execute the service you requested. If we ask for a company name, it is to contextualize your inquiry; if we request a phone number, it is strictly for high-priority coordination regarding your brief.

Entity & Jurisdiction

Strategic Clarity Collective operates as a France-based entity. All data processing adheres to GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) standards regarding user rights, consent, and cross-border transfers.

Information Intake & Usage

A breakdown of what we capture and the specific rationale behind it.

Direct Interaction

Contact & Discovery Forms

When you complete a diagnostic quiz or submit a contact request, we capture Name, Email, Company, and Message. The specific purpose is to generate a custom strategy brief or schedule a discovery call. We do not add these details to "marketing lists" without explicit opt-in.

Technical Telemetry

Non-Identifying Data

We process anonymized log data: IP rough-geolocation (country/region), browser type, and session duration. This is strictly for Security Hardening (detecting brute-force patterns) and Structural Optimization (ensuring our diagnostic tool renders correctly on all devices).

Client Portal

Active Engagement Data

If you engage in a cohort course or strategy sprint, we retain project artifacts and communication logs. These are stored on encrypted servers (AES-256) and archived for a statutory retention period of 7 years for tax and liability verification, then securely purged.

Your Controls

Under GDPR, you possess specific rights regarding your digital footprint. We have architected our response protocols to respect these immediately.

Access control metaphor

Access

Request a complete export of all personal data we hold regarding your interaction with the platform.

Rectification

Update incorrect information (e.g., email typos) via direct request to our compliance lead.

Erasure

Invoke the "Right to be Forgotten." We will purge non-essential data within 30 days.

Portability

Receive your data in a machine-readable format (JSON/CSV) for transfer to another service.

To exercise these rights, please contact our Data Protection Officer.

Third-Party Processors & Compliance

We do not sell your data. Period. However, to deliver services, we rely on specialized infrastructure providers. Each is vetted for GDPR compliance and data sovereignty.

  • Hosting: Infrastructure located within the European Union (France/Germany).
  • Encryption: TLS 1.3 for transit, AES-256 for data at rest.
  • Processors: Only essential services (email delivery, form processing) have access, bound by strict DPA.
