Privacy statement

This privacy statement was amended on August 1, 2025.

HypnoseMentor, located at Hoevestein 12, 4903 SC Oosterhout, provides services and products. In order to perform these services and sell products correctly, we process personal data as described in this privacy statement.

The personal data we process depends on the type of service. For a newsletter, we do not need any more information than your name and email address. When registering for a course or training, we may record information that is relevant to the training, such as attendance, results, feedback, certificate/diploma details, etc. When registering for a hypnotherapy session, we ask for health information.

Special and/or sensitive personal data that we process

Embedded content from other sites behaves in exactly the same way as if the visitor had visited that other site.

HypnoseMentor only processes special and/or sensitive personal data when registering for hypnosis sessions related to health and, if applicable, data of persons under the age of 16 with the consent of their parent(s) or guardian(s). We do not intend to collect data about website visitors who are under the age of 16 unless they have the consent of their parents or guardians. However, we cannot verify whether a visitor is older than 16 years of age. We therefore advise parents to be involved in their children’s online activities to prevent data about children from being collected without parental consent. If you are convinced that we have registered personal data about a minor without such consent, please contact us at info@hypnosementor.org, and we will delete this information.

For what purpose and on what basis do we process personal data?

Once you log out of your account, the login cookies are deleted.

  • For the careful processing of orders and registrations for our various services. We want to be able to inform you by email or telephone about changes and other important information.
  • To send you our newsletter with information about hypnosis and hypnotherapy and our range of products and services.
  • HypnoseMentor also processes personal data if we are legally obliged to do so, such as data we need for our tax return.

Sharing personal data with third parties

HypnoseMentor does not share your data with other parties, with the exception of a few training courses and masterclasses. Where data sharing is involved, for example for the purpose of issuing a diploma or certificate, explicit permission to share the data is requested in the registration form. We enter into a processing agreement with companies that process your data on our behalf to ensure the same level of security and confidentiality of your data. Once you log out of your account, the login cookies are deleted.

Data when participating in training courses

When you register for a HypnoseMentor training course, we process some personal data that is necessary for the implementation of the training course, certification, and administrative processing. Below, we explain what data this is and with whom it may be shared:

What data do we process?

  • Name, address, place of residence (NAW)
  • Email
  • Signed copyright statement (if applicable)
  • Completed evaluation forms
  • Copy of the certificate of participation
  • Test or exam results (if applicable)

Who do we share this info with?

  • Teachers get your name and address info and, if relevant, your evaluation, just to help you and keep things on track during and after the course.
  • OMNI Hypnosis Training Center® only receives your name and address details, the certificate, the signed copyright statement and, if applicable, the test results, solely for registration and issuance of certification.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, that comment and its metadata are stored indefinitely. This allows us to automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments instead of having to moderate them.

For users who register on our site (if applicable), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Site administrators can also view and edit this information.
