1. Who we are

Nova Inizio is a boutique consulting practice providing fractional program leadership and delivery stabilisation services for technology initiatives.


2. Information we collect

We collect information in two main ways:

a) Information you provide directly

When you contact us via the Contact form or email, you may provide:

  • Name
  • Email address
  • Company name
  • Role/title
  • Phone number
  • Time zone
  • Date/time preferences for a call
  • Details about your program, project, or situation
  • Any other information you choose to include in your message

We use this information only to understand your request and respond.

b) Technical information collected automatically

When you visit the site, standard technical information may be collected automatically by our hosting provider and our analytics tools (such as Google Analytics), for example:

  • IP address
  • Browser type and version
  • Device type and operating system
  • Pages visited and time spent on each page
  • Referring website or source (e.g. search engine, social media)
  • General geographic region (not precise location)

This information is typically aggregated and used to understand how the site is used, to maintain security, and to improve performance.


3. How we use your information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Respond to enquiries and requests
  • Communicate with you about potential or ongoing engagements
  • Understand how visitors use the website (which pages are viewed, how often, etc.)
  • Maintain and improve the security, performance, and usability of the site
  • Comply with any legal or regulatory obligations we may have

We do not sell your personal information.


4. Legal basis (where applicable)

Where data protection laws require a legal basis (for example, in the EU/UK), we generally rely on:

  • Legitimate interests – to run and improve the website, communicate with prospective clients, and protect our business.
  • Consent – where you actively provide information via the contact form or email us directly, and where required for the use of certain cookies or analytics.

5. Sharing of information

We may share information with:

  • Service providers who help us operate the website and related services (for example: web hosting, email delivery/SMTP, security, and analytics providers such as Google Analytics).
  • Professional advisors (such as legal or accounting) where reasonably necessary.
  • Authorities or other parties if required by law, regulation, or to protect our rights.

We do not share your information with third parties for their own marketing purposes.


6. Data retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to:

  • Respond to your enquiry,
  • Maintain records of potential and existing engagements, and
  • Comply with legal, accounting, or reporting obligations.

If you would like us to delete or update information you’ve provided, you can email info@novainizio.com, and we will handle your request subject to any legal obligations to retain certain records.


7. Cookies and analytics (including Google Analytics)

Our site may use cookies and similar technologies to:

  • Enable basic website functionality and security
  • Remember certain preferences
  • Understand how the site is being used

We use Google Analytics to help understand how visitors use this site. Google Analytics collects information such as:

  • Which pages are visited and how often
  • How visitors arrive at the site (for example, via search or referral links)
  • Approximate location (city/region), device type, and browser

This information is aggregated and used to improve the site and our content. We do not use Google Analytics to identify individual users.

Google may also process this information as described in its own privacy policy. You can learn more about how Google uses data from sites that use its services here:
https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites

If you prefer, you can:

  • Adjust your browser settings to block or limit cookies, or
  • Use tools such as browser add-ons that limit Google Analytics tracking.

Please note that blocking certain cookies may affect how some parts of the site function.


8. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have certain rights over your personal information, such as the right to:

  • Access the information we hold about you
  • Correct inaccurate information
  • Request the deletion of your information
  • Restrict or object to certain types of processing
  • Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent

To exercise these rights, contact us at info@novainizio.com. We may need to verify your identity before acting on your request and may not always be able to fully comply if we are required to retain information for legal or legitimate business reasons.


9. Third-party links

Our site may include links to third-party websites or services (for example, LinkedIn, X, or other external resources). We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those third parties. We encourage you to review their privacy policies separately.


10. Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect the information we collect against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, or unauthorised access. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.


11. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will indicate the most recent revision. Your continued use of the site after any changes are posted means you accept the updated policy.

If the changes are significant, we may provide additional notice on the website.
