Privacy Policy

Last updated: 26 September 2026

Plain-English summary: Police to Business uses personal information to create and manage member accounts, provide paid access, save programme progress, fulfil the free paperback included with eligible new paid memberships, support the service and meet legal or security obligations. Payment-card details are handled by Stripe rather than stored by Police to Business.

1. Who this notice covers

This notice explains how personal information is handled when you visit Police to Business, create an account, buy access, use the member programme or contact us.

2. Information we may collect

• Account information, such as your full name and email address.
• Your postal address where it is needed to fulfil the complimentary paperback included with an eligible new paid membership.
• Membership and payment-status information needed to provide paid access and confirm book eligibility.
• Information and answers you choose to enter while completing the programme, including your business ideas, goals, plans and progress.
• If you request a professional LinkedIn profile rebuild, the relevant profile, career, CV/resume, business-positioning and content-preference information that you review and explicitly consent to submit. Financial-planning answers are not included in that brief.
• Messages or support information you send to us.
• Technical and security information generated when you use the service, where necessary to operate and protect it.

3. Why we use it

We use personal information to provide and administer your account and membership, save and restore programme progress, deliver the features you request, send an eligible member's complimentary paperback to the supplied address, respond to support enquiries, prevent misuse and maintain the security and reliability of the service, and comply with applicable legal obligations.

4. Lawful bases

Depending on the activity, processing may be necessary to perform our contract with you, to comply with a legal obligation, or for legitimate interests such as operating, securing and improving the service. Where consent is legally required, we will rely on consent.

5. Service providers and sharing

We use third-party service providers where necessary to run the service, including hosting/infrastructure, account authentication/database services, transactional email and payment processing. They may process information only as needed to provide those services. A professional-service brief is shared with Adam Conn/Police to Business only after the member reviews the information and gives explicit consent. We do not sell your personal information.

6. Payments

Payments are processed through Stripe. Police to Business receives information needed to confirm payment and membership access, but does not need to store your full payment-card details.

7. Cookies and similar technologies

The service may use storage or similar technologies that are necessary for account access, security and core functionality. If non-essential cookies or similar technologies are introduced, appropriate information and consent controls should be provided where required.

8. How long we keep information

We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including providing your account and membership, fulfilling and evidencing delivery of the complimentary paperback, resolving disputes, maintaining appropriate records and meeting legal obligations. Postal addresses are not used for unrelated marketing and should be deleted or anonymised when no longer reasonably needed for fulfilment, customer service or legal record-keeping. Retention periods can differ depending on the type of information.

9. Your rights

UK data-protection law gives individuals rights in relation to their personal information, which may include rights of access, correction, erasure, restriction, objection and data portability, depending on the circumstances. You may also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.

10. Security and international services

Reasonable technical and organisational measures are used to protect account and programme information. Some service providers may process information outside the UK; where this occurs, appropriate safeguards should apply as required by data-protection law.

11. Contact and updates

If you have a privacy question or wish to exercise a data-protection right, contact Police to Business using the contact details provided through the website. This notice may be updated as the service or legal requirements change.
