Who we are
This website (www.jannahuneke.uk) is operated by Janna Hüneke, a freelance music teacher based in the United Kingdom. You can contact me at [your email address].
1. What data I collect
I may collect and store:
-
Your name and contact details (email address, phone number) when you get in touch or book lessons.
-
Information relevant to your lessons (instrument, schedule, goals).
-
Recordings of lessons when agreed in advance (via Zoom).
-
Technical information automatically collected by my website host (such as IP address, browser type).
2. How and why I use your data
Your personal information is used only to:
-
Arrange, deliver, and manage music lessons.
-
Communicate about bookings, cancellations, or resources.
-
Keep simple lesson and payment records for administrative purposes.
-
Maintain safeguarding and teaching standards.
I record lessons only when both teacher and student agree, typically for review or safeguarding. Recordings are stored securely and deleted after they are no longer needed.
3. Lawful basis for processing
I process personal data on the following lawful bases:
-
Contract: to provide your lessons and manage bookings.

Consent: when recording lessons or adding you to communications lists.
-
Legal obligation: where record-keeping is required (e.g. accounting).
4. How long I keep your data
I retain contact and lesson information while you are an active student and for up to six years after lessons end, unless you ask for deletion sooner (except where legal obligations apply).
5. Sharing your data
Your information is not sold or shared for marketing.
However, it may be stored or processed using trusted third-party services (for example, my website host, email provider, or booking diary provider). Each complies with UK data protection law.

These are small text files stored on your device to make the site work properly.
Essential cookies are always on. Optional cookies (such as analytics or marketing) are only set with your consent.
You can control or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time.
7. Your rights
You have the right to:
-
Access the personal data I hold about you.
-
Request correction or deletion of your data.
