Depending on the circumstances, this may include:

Contract: Where processing is necessary to take steps at your request before entering into an agreement with us or to provide services under an agreement with you.

Legitimate Interests: Where processing is reasonably necessary for the operation and development of Libero Pathways, including responding to enquiries, assessing prospective clients, providing and improving our services and maintaining appropriate business records, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights and interests.

Consent: Where we have specifically asked for your consent, including where consent is required for particular marketing or cookie-related activities. Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time.

Legal Obligation: Where we need to process information to comply with applicable law or regulatory requirements.

We do not sell your personal information.

Where necessary and appropriate, we may share information with organizations involved in delivering or supporting our services, including:

We only share information where there is a legitimate reason to do so and seek to limit the information shared to what is reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose.

5. Calendly and Other Service Providers

We use third-party technology providers to operate parts of our business.

For example, we use Calendly to enable prospective and current clients to schedule calls with us. When you make a booking, information you provide through the booking form may be processed by Calendly on our behalf.

Other third-party providers may process information where necessary to host our website, provide communications, manage our business or deliver our services.

These providers operate under their own contractual and data protection obligations.

Libero Pathways works with student-athletes, families, universities, clubs and service providers across the United States, United Kingdom and potentially other countries.

As a result, your personal information may be accessed, processed or transferred outside the country in which you are located

Where applicable data protection law requires safeguards for an international transfer, we take reasonable steps to ensure that an appropriate lawful transfer mechanism or other protection is in place.

7. How Long We Keep Your Information

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including providing our services, maintaining appropriate business and client records, resolving disputes and satisfying legal, accounting or regulatory requirements.

The appropriate retention period depends on factors including the nature of the information, our relationship with you, why we collected it and any applicable legal requirements.

When personal information is no longer reasonably required, we will delete it or otherwise dispose of it appropriately.
