Privacy Policy

Last updated: 9 November 2026

This policy explains how Training Contract Blueprint ("TCB", "we", "us") uses your personal data, in line with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

1. Who is responsible for your data

Chloe Uzoukwu, trading as Training Contract Blueprint ("TCB"), is the data controller. Contact for privacy questions: contact.tcblueprint@gmail.com.

2. What we collect

  • Account details: name, email address, password (stored securely in hashed form) and sign-in records.
  • Your preparation work: questionnaire answers, Application Roadmap choices and progress, saved firms and matches, applications, recruitment-stage tracker entries, written drafts, reflections, notes and guide progress.
  • Plan and usage information: which plan you choose, and how many Elite AI sessions you use each month.
  • Practice recordings: see section 3.
  • Payment information: if you buy a paid plan, payments are handled by our payment provider. We do not see or store your full card details.
  • Technical data: browser type, device information and basic logs needed to keep the platform secure and working.

We do not ask for special category data (such as health, ethnicity or religion). If you choose to include it in your own written work — for example in a diversity scheme application — we only process it to store it for you and, if you request it, to give feedback. You can delete it at any time.

3. Video and audio practice

  • Video Interview Booth recordings stay on your device until you explicitly submit material for feedback. Other interview and assessment-centre practice tools may upload recordings you submit to private account-scoped storage, so you can replay and assess your attempts.
  • Camera and microphone are only used when you start a practice session and grant permission in your browser.
  • Elite feedback: when you submit an answer for AI feedback, we send an audio transcript and up to six still images taken during your recording. The still images are used only to give feedback on presence and composure (body language and eye contact). We never assess appearance, clothing, background or personal characteristics.
  • Still images are discarded after feedback is generated and are not stored in your account. The written feedback and transcript are saved so you can review them.
  • Your submissions are not used to train AI models.

4. Why we use your data (lawful bases)

  • To provide the service you signed up for (contract): your account, saved work, trackers, My Firm Match results and feedback.
  • With your consent: camera and microphone access, and any optional marketing emails. You can withdraw consent at any time.
  • Legitimate interests: keeping TCB secure, preventing misuse, enforcing usage limits and improving the platform in ways that do not override your rights.
  • Legal obligation: keeping financial records and responding to lawful requests.

5. Who we share it with

We do not sell your data and we never share it with law firms. We use trusted service providers who process data on our instructions:

  • secure cloud hosting and database services;
  • an AI processing service, only for Elite feedback you request;
  • Paddle, our Merchant of Record, for product sales, subscription management, payments, tax compliance and invoicing;
  • an email delivery service, for sign-in and account emails.
  • professional legal or accounting advisers when necessary, and authorities where disclosure is required by law.

Some providers may process data outside the UK. Where this happens, we rely on UK adequacy regulations or approved safeguards such as the International Data Transfer Agreement.

6. How long we keep it

  • Your account and saved work: while your account is open. When you delete your account, we delete your data within 30 days, except where we must keep it by law.
  • Elite feedback: kept in your account until you delete it or the retention period shown in the platform ends. A minimal usage record may be kept so monthly allowances work correctly.
  • Device recordings: stay on your device until you delete them or clear your browser storage.
  • Submitted practice recordings are stored privately until you delete the attempt. Uploaded Elite processing media is removed after 30 days, and Elite transcripts and feedback after 12 months without activity, subject to the retention controls shown in the platform.
  • Payment records: kept for 6 years to meet UK tax law.

7. Security

Your workspace is private to your account. We use encrypted connections, access controls that stop other users seeing your data, and limited staff access.

8. Your rights

Under UK GDPR you have the right to:

  • access a copy of your data;
  • correct inaccurate data;
  • have your data deleted;
  • restrict or object to how we use it;
  • receive your data in a portable format;
  • withdraw consent at any time.

To use these rights, contact contact.tcblueprint@gmail.com. We will respond within one month. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk, 0303 123 1113), though we would appreciate the chance to help first.

9. Cookies and local storage

We use only essential storage needed to keep you signed in, remember your settings and keep practice recordings on your device. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies.

10. Changes

We will update this policy when our practices change and show the date at the top. We will tell you about significant changes.
