1. Who I Am
My name is Tomilola Adeleke. I run TomilolaUncut, a personal styling service operating under my own name at this website. You can contact me at thecreatorgirly@gmail.com.
I am the data controller for the personal information you share with me. This means I decide how and why your data is used, and I take that responsibility seriously.
2. What Data I Collect
I may collect the following information when you use my website or book a service:
- Contact details — your name and email address (via my contact form or booking tool)
- Booking information — the service you're interested in, your availability, and any notes you share via Calendly
- Payment information — processed securely by Stripe; I do not store your card details
- Usage data — how you navigate my website, collected anonymously via Google Analytics (pages visited, time on site, device type)
- Communications — any messages you send me via email or my contact form
3. How I Use Your Data
I use your information to:
- Respond to your enquiries and provide the services you've booked
- Process payments securely through Stripe
- Schedule and manage bookings through Calendly
- Understand how people use my website so I can improve it (Google Analytics)
- Contact you in the future about my services, if you've given me permission to do so
I will never sell your data or use it for anything unrelated to your experience with TomilolaUncut.
4. Legal Basis for Processing (UK GDPR)
Under UK GDPR, I process your data on the following legal grounds:

- Consent — for any marketing communications (you can withdraw this at any time)
- Legal obligation — where I'm required to retain records for tax or legal purposes
5. Third Parties I Work With

- Stripe (stripe.com/privacy) — payment processing
- Calendly (calendly.com/privacy) — appointment scheduling
- Mailchimp (mailchimp.com/legal/privacy) — may be used for future newsletters
I do not share your personal data with any other third parties without your explicit consent.
6. Cookies
My website uses cookies — small files stored on your device — to help Google Analytics understand how visitors use the site. These are analytics cookies only and do not identify you personally.
You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings at any time.
7. How Long I Keep Your Data
- Enquiry and contact data — up to 12 months after our last communication
- Booking and payment records — up to 6 years, as required by UK tax law

8. Your Rights
Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:
- Access the personal data I hold about you
- Correct any inaccurate information
- Delete your data (the "right to be forgotten")
- Restrict how I use your data
- Object to processing based on legitimate interests
- Withdraw consent for marketing at any time
To exercise any of these rights, email me at thecreatorgirly@gmail.com. I will respond within 30 days.
