Privacy Policy

Last updated: 22 October 2026

This policy explains what personal data we process in connection with the website successionroom.com and The Succession Room's services, for what purposes, on what legal basis, and what rights you have in relation to that data — in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) and the Bulgarian Personal Data Protection Act.

1. What data we process

We process personal data only when you provide it to us voluntarily — through the application form on the site or by direct email to us. This may include:

• your name and email address;
• your company name (if you provide it);

Important, about how the form works: it does not send your data to our server or a database. When you click "Send my application," your own email program opens with a pre-filled message, drafted by you, which you yourself send to info@successionroom.com. We receive only an ordinary email — exactly as much as you choose to send — not automatically collected data.

2. Why we process this data

• to review your inquiry personally and assess whether private consulting would be a good fit;
• to contact you about your inquiry, including to schedule an introductory conversation;
• to deliver the consulting service, if we decide together to move forward;
• to respond to direct questions sent to us by email.

3. Legal basis

We process your data based on your consent, expressed by submitting your inquiry (GDPR Art. 6(1)(a)), and/or because we are taking steps at your request prior to possibly entering into a consulting agreement (Art. 6(1)(b)). If you become our client, further processing of data related to the contract is based on performance of that contract.

4. Data retention

Data from your inquiry is stored in our mailbox (info@successionroom.com) for as long as necessary for our correspondence with you and, if we begin working together, for the duration of the advisory relationship and a reasonable period afterward. You may request deletion of your data at any time — see section 7 below.

5. Who we share data with

As a rule, we do not share your personal data with third parties. We use the following technical providers for the functioning of the site and our email, who may have technical access to data where necessary as part of the service they provide:

• Cloudflare, Inc. — website hosting and email forwarding (Cloudflare Email Routing);
• our email service provider, to which incoming mail is forwarded.

We do not sell or provide personal data to third parties for advertising or marketing purposes.

6. Transfers outside the EU/EEA

Our hosting provider (Cloudflare, Inc., headquartered in the USA) may process certain technical data (for example, IP address when loading the page) as part of the standard security and performance mechanisms of its global network. Where such a transfer occurs, the safeguards recognized by the European Commission apply (Standard Contractual Clauses or an equivalent mechanism).

7. Your rights

Under the GDPR, you have the right to:

• access your personal data;
• correct inaccurate data;
• erase your data ("the right to be forgotten");
• restrict processing;
• object to processing;
• data portability;
• lodge a complaint with the Commission for Personal Data Protection (CPDP), www.cpdp.bg, if you believe your rights have been violated.

To exercise these rights, write to us at info@successionroom.com.

8. Cookies

Details about the cookies associated with this site are available in our Cookie Policy.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy when the way we process data changes, or when applicable law changes. The current version is always published on this page, with the date of the last update indicated.
