Introduction

​

Welcome to the Privacy Policy for The Co-Host Method. We are committed to protecting your personal data in accordance with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

For the purposes of our Market Analysis services, The Co-Host Method acts as a Data Controller for the information you provide about yourself and your property.

1. The Data We Collect

We collect and process the following categories of data to provide our services:

  • Identity & Contact Data: Name, email address, and phone number. This data is collected when you subscribe to our newsletter, fill out a contact form, or purchase a service.

  • Property & Performance Data: Property address, listing URLs, and specific historical performance data provided by you via our intake forms to facilitate your Market Analysis.

  • Financial Data: Payment processing information (handled securely via Wix Payments/Stripe). We do not store full credit card details on our servers.

  • Transaction Data: Details about the specific Market Analysis reports or consultancy services you have purchased.

  • Technical Data: IP address and browser type used to access our website.

​

2. How We Use Your Data (Lawful Basis)

​

We process your data under the following lawful bases:

  • Performance of a Contract: To generate and deliver the Market Analysis report you purchased.

  • Legitimate Interest: To respond to business inquiries and manage our administrative operations.

  • Consent: To send you our newsletter or marketing updates. You may opt-out of these communications at any time.

​

3. Data Storage and Platforms

​

To ensure a seamless service, we utilise the following third-party platforms:

  • Wix: Our website is hosted on the Wix.com platform. Your data (including your email address and contact history) may be stored through Wix.com’s data storage, databases, and general applications. They store your data on secure servers behind a firewall.

  • Google Workspace: We use Google Forms, Docs and Sheets for onboarding and data analysis.

​

4. Data Security

​

We implement commercially reasonable security measures to prevent your data from being lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized way.

  • Property Confidentiality: We treat your property performance data as commercially sensitive and it is only accessible by the analysts generating your report.

  • Retention: We keep your data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

​

5. International Transfers

​

We primarily process data within the UK and EEA. Because we use platforms like Wix and Google, your data may be stored on servers located outside the UK/EEA. We ensure these providers maintain equivalent protections via the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework or Standard Contractual Clauses.

​

6. Your Legal Rights

​

Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:

  • Request access to your personal data.

  • Request correction or erasure of your data.

  • Object to processing or request data portability.

  • Withdraw consent for marketing at any time.

To exercise these rights, please contact info@thecohostmethod.com.

7. Complaints

​

If you have a concern, please contact us first. If we cannot resolve it, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at www.ico.org.uk.
