01 Who is responsible
Kari Bennett, sole proprietor, trading as 29 Degrees, in Louisiana, United States. For any question about your data, or to ask me to delete it, write to kari@29degreeconsulting.com.
02 What I collect
| What | When, and why |
|---|---|
| Your contact details name, role, email, phone if you give it |
When you email me or submit an intake form. Used to reply to you and to deliver your work. |
| Company information legal name, incorporation date, time and place, sector, headcount |
When you submit intake. The incorporation moment is the calculation the whole document is built from. |
| Birth data of individuals role, birth date, birthplace, and birth time where known |
When you submit intake. Used solely to calculate the positions behind your friction table. See section 03. |
| What you tell me your written description of what is grinding |
When you submit intake, or in email and calls. Used to direct the reading and nothing else. |
| Payment information name, billing details, amount, receipt |
Handled entirely by Stripe. I never see or store your card number. I see that a payment succeeded, for how much, and the name attached. |
| Anonymous site statistics pages viewed, referring site, country, device type |
Collected by Cloudflare Web Analytics on every page. No cookies, no fingerprinting, no individual profile, nothing that identifies you. |
What I never collect
Card numbers. Government identification numbers. Health information. Anything about anyone under 18. This service is for businesses and for adults.
03 Data about people who are not you
An engagement usually means giving me birth dates for people who did not fill in my form: a founder, a controller, a sales lead. That is the most sensitive thing I hold, and it is held to a higher standard than the rest.
What I require of you
By submitting intake you confirm you have the right to provide that data, and that you will not use the resulting document to make decisions about those people's employment. That is a condition of the work, set out in the terms of engagement.
What I do
- I use it to calculate positions. Nothing else.
- I write findings about roles, not about people's characters, and never as an assessment of an individual's worth or performance.
- I do not disclose it to anyone, ever, including to the other people named in the same document.
- If one of those individuals contacts me directly and asks me to delete their data, I will do it and I will tell you that I have.
The safest way to use this service is to tell the people involved that their birth date is being used, and what for. It costs you nothing and it removes the only real objection anyone can raise about this work.
04 Who else touches your data
I am one person, but the tools I use are companies. These are all of them:
| Service | What it handles |
|---|---|
| Netlify | Hosts this website and receives intake form submissions. |
| Cloudflare | Anonymous, cookie-free page statistics. |
| Stripe | All payment processing. Card details go to Stripe and never to me. |
| Porkbun and Microsoft Outlook | Email to kari@29degreeconsulting.com is forwarded and read in a private mailbox. |
Each holds data under its own privacy terms. I do not give your information to anyone else. I do not sell data, I do not share it with advertisers, and I do not run advertising or marketing trackers on this site.
05 Cookies
This site sets no tracking cookies and shows no cookie banner, because there is nothing to consent to. The analytics I use are cookie-free by design and cannot follow you to other sites.
06 How long I keep it
| Data | Kept for |
|---|---|
| Intake submissions and completed documents | Kept while the engagement is active, and afterwards so that findings stay checkable and I can answer questions about work I delivered. Deleted on request. |
| Email correspondence | Kept as ordinary business records. Deleted on request. |
| Payment records | Kept as long as tax and accounting law requires. These I cannot delete on request. |
| Site statistics | Retained by Cloudflare on a rolling window. Anonymous, so it contains nothing to delete. |
07 Your rights
Whatever state or country you are in, I will honour these:
- Ask what I hold. I will tell you, in plain terms, within 30 days.
- Get a copy. I will send you what I have.
- Correct it. Wrong birth data produces wrong findings, so this one helps us both.
- Delete it. I will delete what I am not legally required to keep, and confirm when it is done.
- Object. Tell me to stop using it and I will stop.
One email does all of it: kari@29degreeconsulting.com. No form to fill in, no account to create, and I will not ask you why.
08 Security, honestly stated
Payments run through Stripe, so the most sensitive data never reaches me. The site is served over HTTPS. Intake submissions are held in an access-controlled account, and my email is protected by a password I do not reuse.
I am a single practitioner, not a bank. I will not claim a security posture I do not have. What I will tell you is exactly what I hold, where it sits, and that I will delete it when you ask.
09 Changes
This policy is versioned and dated. If I change something that matters, I change the version and the date at the top. Material changes affecting an active engagement will be sent to you by email rather than quietly published.
