How your information is handled
Last updated: October 2026
What I collect
This site has no accounts and stores nothing you type. The contact form only prepares an email in your own email app; nothing is sent until you press send there. If you email me, I receive your name, address, organization, and whatever you choose to send. If you choose to open the Calendly calendar and book, Calendly collects the details you enter there and shares your booking details with me. Please avoid sending sensitive records in an initial inquiry.
How I use it
I use the information you send to respond, schedule calls, assess whether to work together, carry out agreed services, and keep records where necessary. I do not sell or rent your information.
Confidentiality
I handle inquiries with care, but an initial email or booking is not an engagement agreement and ordinary email is not guaranteed secure. Any specific confidentiality arrangements belong in a written engagement agreement. Please do not send sensitive client records before we agree on an appropriate way to share them.
Other services on this site
The booking calendar is supplied by Calendly and loads only after you choose to open it. Calendly may use cookies and process your browser and booking information under its own privacy terms. Google Fonts loads the site's typefaces and may receive technical request information such as your IP address. A Google Search Console verification tag is present; it is not an advertising pixel. In the editor preview, technical errors may be reported to Lovable for troubleshooting. See the cookie policy.
How long I keep it
I keep inquiries and engagement records only as long as needed for the purpose they were collected or for applicable legal and business obligations. Calendly and email providers have their own retention practices. You may ask about a specific record's retention.
Your choices
You can ask to see, correct, or delete any information I hold about you. Email michael@elfakihadvisory.com with the subject “Data deletion request” (or describe your request). I may need to verify your identity before acting. Where a record must be kept for legal or contractual reasons, I will explain that limitation. For data held by Calendly, you may also need to contact Calendly directly.
