At The Metrics Lab, I respect your privacy and am committed to protecting your personal information.
This Privacy Policy explains what information I collect, why I collect it, how I use it, and the choices you have regarding your data.
If you have any questions, you can contact me at [email protected] .
Who I am
The Metrics Lab is a UK-based volunteer initiative where I support people interested in data analytics through mentoring, career conversations, and community projects. For the purposes of UK data protection law, I am the data controller for the personal information collected through this website.
What information I collect
Depending on how you get in touch, I may collect:
- Your name
- Your email address
- Your phone number (if you choose to provide it)
- Information you share when booking a discovery call or contacting me
- Any information you voluntarily choose to share during our conversations
I only collect information that is relevant to communicating with you and organising mentoring activities.
How I use your information
I use your information to:
- Schedule and manage discovery calls.
- Respond to your enquiries.
- Stay in touch regarding mentoring opportunities or community initiatives.
- Send occasional updates about new projects, events, or resources related to data analytics that may be of interest to you, where you have agreed to receive them.
I will never sell or share your personal information for marketing purposes.
Legal basis for processing
Under UK GDPR, I process your personal information based on one or more of the following legal grounds:
- Consent, where you choose to receive updates from me.
- Legitimate interests, to respond to enquiries and organise mentoring activities.
- Your request, where processing your information is necessary to arrange a discovery call or respond to you.
You can withdraw your consent to receive updates at any time by contacting me.
Who I share your information with
I only share your information with trusted services that help me organise mentoring activities. These may include:
- My appointment scheduling provider
- My email provider
- My calendar provider
- Video conferencing platforms such as Google Meet or Zoom
These services only receive the information necessary to provide their functionality and are expected to protect your personal information.
How long I keep your information
I keep your personal information for up to one year after our last interaction.
After that, your information is securely deleted unless I am legally required to keep it for longer.
Keeping your information secure
I take reasonable steps to protect your personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, or disclosure.
Although no online service can guarantee complete security, I use trusted providers and follow good security practices to help keep your information safe.

- Request access to the personal information I hold about you.
- Ask me to correct inaccurate information.
- Request that I delete your information where appropriate.
