How I look after your information
No marketing machine, no selling your details on. If you book a call or email me, your information comes to me so I can reply. If you ask for one of my free guides, I email you the guide and a short follow-up. If you finish the readiness check, I email you your plan. Either way, you can unsubscribe in one click.

In a nutshell
- I collect what you give me: your name and email, your readiness check answers if you choose to send them with a booking, and your readiness plan when you finish the check.
- I use it to reply to you about training that might fit. Nothing more.
- I keep it for 90 days after we last speak, then delete it. If you've asked for a free guide or occasional emails, I keep your email until you unsubscribe.
- You can ask me to delete it sooner, any time, no reason needed.
- No cookies, no tracking, no third-party advertising on this site.
Who I am
I'm Hannah Meek, and humAIn is my business. I help people use AI, through training, consulting and setting things up, so AI actually works for you. For data protection I'm the "controller", which is the legal word for the person who decides what happens to your information and is responsible for it.
humAIn is the trading name of Humain Collective Ltd, registered in England and Wales (company no. 16570586), registered office Unit A, 82 James Carter Road, Mildenhall, IP28 7DE. I'm registered with the Information Commissioner's Office (the UK's data protection regulator) under registration number ZC071165. You can reach me at hannah@humainltd.com.
What I collect, and when
Only what you choose to hand over. That happens in these ways:
- The AI readiness check. It asks for your email first, but your email and your answers stay in your browser while you answer. If you stop part-way, nothing is kept or sent. When you reach your results, your email address, your first name if you give it, and your plan go to MailerLite, which emails the full plan to you. Your plan is built from your answers: your stage, the area to start with and the advice that goes with them, with your answers to the four questions about how you use AI played back word for word. Your answer to the last question, the one thing you'd hand over, isn't sent. If you also tick the box for occasional emails, you'll get the odd email about new free guides and what I'm working on, and you can unsubscribe at any time using the link in every email. If you book a call, a summary of your answers is added to the Calendly booking form, where you can read, change or delete it before you book.
- Emailing me directly. Whatever you put in the message, and your email address so I can write back.
- Booking a call. If you schedule a chat with me through Calendly, the name and email you enter there, anything you write in the booking form, and the time you choose.
- Asking for a free guide. If you ask for one of my guides (on my free guides page, or by commenting GUIDE on one of my Instagram posts, which sends you the link in a direct message), your email address, your first name if you give it, and a record of when and how you signed up. If you comment on Instagram, the tool that sends the direct message also sees your Instagram username and your comment (more on that under Who else sees it). Confirming your email unlocks the guides page, and the page remembers that in your browser so the guides stay unlocked. That isn't a cookie, and nothing about it tracks you. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in every email.
I don't run analytics or advertising trackers on this site, so I'm not quietly collecting anything in the background. There's no cookie banner here because there's nothing that needs one.
Why I have it, and the legal bit
I use your information to reply to you: to answer your question, to prepare for a call you've booked, and to talk about working together if that's what you're after. If you've asked for a free guide, I use your email to send you the guide and the follow-up emails that come with it. Under UK GDPR I need a lawful basis to hold your details, and mine is your consent. You give it by booking a call, by confirming your sign-up for a guide, by finishing the readiness check or ticking the box for occasional emails, or simply by emailing me. You can withdraw it whenever you like.
What I will never do: add you to a mailing list you didn't sign up for yourself, pass your details to anyone for their own marketing, or sell your data. I only email you the things you've actually asked for. If you ask for a guide, you get the guide and the follow-ups I mentioned when you signed up. If you finish the readiness check, you get your plan, and nothing more unless you ticked the box for occasional emails. Every email has a one-click unsubscribe.
Who else sees it
As few people and services as possible.
- My email provider. Once your message reaches me, it lives in my email account like any other email.
- My booking tool. If you book a call, I use Calendly to schedule it. The name and email you give Calendly, and anything in the booking form, are processed on their systems to set the meeting up and send you a reminder. Calendly is a US company, so this is one of the points where your details are handled outside the UK and EU — they do this under the standard legal safeguards (Standard Contractual Clauses) that keep your data protected to UK and EU standards. Booking this way is entirely optional: if you'd rather not, just email me and we'll find a time the ordinary way.
- My email list tool. If you ask for a free guide, finish the readiness check, or ask for occasional emails, I use MailerLite to store your email and send you what you asked for: the guide and its follow-ups, your readiness plan, or the occasional email. MailerLite processes your details on my behalf and doesn't use them for anything of its own. For UK customers it's provided by MailerLite Limited in Ireland, and your details stay in the EU, so they're protected by UK and EU data protection rules.
- Instagram. If you comment on one of my posts or message me there, that happens on Instagram, which Meta runs under its own privacy policy. Apart from the reply tool below, I don't copy your Instagram details anywhere else.
- My Instagram reply tool. If you comment GUIDE on one of my posts, I use LinkDM to send you the guide link in a direct message. To do that, LinkDM sees your Instagram username, your comment and the message it sends you, through Instagram's official connection. LinkDM is run by WebDotClub, an Australian company, and keeps data on servers in the US and Australia, so this is another point where your details are handled outside the UK and EU. It does this under the same standard legal safeguards (Standard Contractual Clauses). LinkDM says it doesn't sell personal information, but its own privacy policy says it may use what it holds for its own internal research and product development. Commenting is entirely optional: if you'd rather not, every guide is free on my guides page.
That's the whole list. I don't sell data and I don't share it with advertisers. Apart from the optional booking tool and the Instagram reply tool described above, which both use approved safeguards, I don't move your data outside the UK or EU.
How long I keep it
I hold your information for up to 90 days after we last speak, then I delete it. If you've signed up for a free guide or for occasional emails, I keep your email address until you unsubscribe. If you only took the readiness check, I delete your email and plan within 90 days. After that I keep only a note that you unsubscribed, so you're never emailed again by mistake. If we end up working together, I'll keep what I need for that work and tell you what and why at the time. If you ask me to delete your details before the 90 days are up, I'll do it.
Your rights
The law gives you a clear set of rights over your own information. You can ask me to:
- Show you what I hold about you.
- Correct anything that's wrong.
- Delete it.
- Stop using it, or hand it back to you in a portable form.
Just email me and I'll sort it, free of charge, normally within a month. You'll never need to explain yourself to exercise these.
How to reach me
For anything about your data, or this notice, email hannah@humainltd.com and put "privacy" in the subject line so it jumps out at me.
If you're not happy
I'd always rather you came to me first so I can put things right. But you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office, who regulate this in the UK. You'll find them at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113.
Changes to this notice
If I change how I handle your information, I'll update this page and the date at the top. The current version is always the one you're reading here.
