Privacy Policy

Who we are

Beyond the Smooth Talk Consulting (“we”, “us”) operates this website. We are based in Cape Town, South Africa. For any privacy-related request you can reach us at info@beyondthesmoothtalk.com.

What we collect

When you contact us through a form on this site we collect the information you provide — typically your name, email address, phone number and message. We also collect limited technical and analytics data (such as pages visited and general location) and use cookies as described below.

Why we collect it

We use this information solely to respond to your enquiry, to provide the services you request, and to understand and improve how the site is used. We do not sell your personal information.

Cookies

We use a single first-party cookie to remember your cookie-consent choice for 365 days. Non-essential cookies — such as analytics — are only set after you select “Accept all” on our cookie banner. Choosing “Essential only” prevents those from loading.

Third-party services

This site is protected from spam by Google reCAPTCHA, which is subject to the Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. Where analytics are enabled, they load only with your consent and are governed by the relevant provider’s own privacy policy.

Data retention & your rights

We keep enquiry information only as long as necessary to respond to and manage your request. Under South Africa’s POPIA — and, for visitors in the EU, the GDPR — you have the right to access, correct or request deletion of the personal information we hold about you.

Contact for privacy requests

To exercise any of these rights, or for any question about this policy, email info@beyondthesmoothtalk.com.
