Privacy policy
Privacy is part of the service.
Naples Lifestyle Management is built around trust, discretion and responsible stewardship. This policy explains what personal information we collect, why we use it, how it may be disclosed, how long it is retained and the choices available to you.
Policy overview
Clear information about how personal data is handled.
This policy applies to visitors to this website, people who contact Naples Lifestyle Management, prospective clients, clients, authorized family members and representatives, professional advisors, vendors and other people whose information is processed in connection with our services.
The information involved can range from ordinary contact details to confidential household, family, property, business or continuity information. The type of information we need depends on the relationship and the responsibilities we have agreed to undertake.
At a glance
- We use information to respond to enquiries, provide agreed services and operate the website.
- We do not request passwords, account numbers or highly sensitive documents through the website form.
- We disclose information only where appropriate to the service, authorized by the client or required by law.
- We use service providers for hosting, security, email, administration and other essential business functions.
- You may contact us to ask about, correct or request deletion of your personal information.
- Additional contractual safeguards may apply to Safekept™ and other engagements involving sensitive information.
Who we are and the scope of this policy
Naples Lifestyle Management, referred to in this policy as “NLM,” “we,” “us” or “our,” is a private client services company based in Naples, Florida. We provide personal and executive support, household and property coordination, family and lifestyle management, advisor and vendor coordination, project and transition support, selected business support and Safekept™ private continuity services.
Depending on the circumstances and applicable law, NLM may act as a business, controller or organization responsible for deciding why and how personal information is processed. In some situations, we may process information on a client’s instructions or coordinate information held by another professional or service provider.
This policy applies to information collected through this website, enquiries, communications, consultations, client onboarding, service delivery and ordinary business administration. A written engagement, confidentiality agreement, data processing agreement or Safekept™ agreement may provide additional terms for a particular relationship. Where those terms provide stronger protections, they will apply to that engagement.
Information we collect
The categories below describe information we may collect. We do not necessarily collect every category from every person.
Identity and contact information
Names, email addresses, telephone numbers, locations, preferred contact methods, titles, roles and relationship to a client.
Enquiry and consultation information
The services of interest, requested timeframe, referral source, broad circumstances and information included in messages or consultations.
Client and engagement records
Contracts, instructions, scope, authorizations, preferences, priorities, meeting notes, project records, status updates and decision history.

Details of attorneys, accountants, financial advisors, property managers, household staff, contractors, medical offices and other providers.
Business and administrative information
Business contacts, project materials, meeting information, invoices, expenses, operational records and administrative documents relevant to agreed support.
Billing and transaction records
Invoices, payment status, tax-related business records and accounting correspondence. Card details should be handled by an appropriate payment provider rather than submitted through the website.
Communications
Emails, messages, call notes, correspondence and records of communications with clients, authorized contacts, advisors, vendors and service providers.
Website and technical information
IP address, browser type, device information, referring pages, dates and times, requested pages, security events, cookie identifiers and server logs.
Information we do not seek through the public website
- Passwords, PINs, security answers, alarm codes or access credentials.
- Full bank, investment, credit card or financial account numbers.
- Passport, driver’s licence, Social Security or other identity documents.
- Detailed medical records, diagnoses or treatment information.
- Tax returns, estate documents or complete financial statements.
If such information becomes genuinely necessary after an engagement begins, the purpose, access, storage and appropriate transfer method will be considered separately.
Sources of personal information
We may obtain information from the following sources:
- Directly from you through forms, email, telephone calls, meetings and other communications.
- From a client who asks us to coordinate with or on behalf of a family member, employee, advisor, vendor or other authorized person.
- From authorized representatives, family offices, attorneys, accountants, financial advisors, property managers, household staff and other professionals.
- From vendors, contractors and service providers involved in an agreed responsibility or project.
- From public records, professional directories, websites and other publicly available sources where appropriate.
- Automatically from website hosting, security, analytics and similar technologies.
If you provide personal information about another person, you should have appropriate authority to do so and should tell them that their information may be shared with NLM for the relevant purpose.
How we use personal information
We may use personal information for the following purposes:
Responding to enquiries
Reviewing requests, communicating with prospective clients and arranging confidential introductory conversations.
Assessing suitability and capacity
Understanding the requested scope, identifying conflicts or specialist needs and deciding whether an engagement can be accepted.
Providing agreed services
Organizing information, coordinating responsibilities, communicating with authorized people and completing agreed work.
Managing relationships
Maintaining preferences, instructions, status records, authorizations, project history and continuity across an engagement.
Business administration
Contracts, billing, accounting, insurance, recordkeeping, service improvement and management of professional providers.
Security and risk management
Preventing misuse, protecting accounts and systems, detecting suspicious activity, resolving disputes and responding to incidents.
Legal and regulatory purposes
Meeting legal obligations, responding to lawful requests and establishing, exercising or defending legal rights.
Website operation
Delivering pages, processing forms, diagnosing errors, maintaining security and understanding how the website is used.
Marketing communications
We may send service-related communications that are necessary to respond to an enquiry or manage a client relationship. Promotional communications will be sent only where requested, consented to or otherwise permitted by applicable law. You may ask us to stop promotional communications at any time. We may retain a minimal suppression record so that the preference can be respected.
Automated decision-making
We do not use personal information to make solely automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects. Decisions about prospective and existing client relationships are made by people.
Legal bases where data protection law requires them
Some privacy laws require an organization to identify a lawful basis for processing. Where those laws apply, we may rely on one or more of the following:
- Steps before a contract: responding to an enquiry, discussing a possible engagement and preparing a proposal.
- Performance of a contract: providing agreed private client services and administering the relationship.
- Legitimate interests: operating and protecting the business, communicating with relevant people, improving services, keeping appropriate records and establishing or defending legal rights, provided those interests are not overridden by individual rights.
- Consent: where you have made a clear voluntary choice, including certain optional communications or uses of sensitive information.
- Legal obligation: meeting tax, accounting, court, regulatory, reporting or other requirements.
- Vital interests: in limited circumstances where processing is necessary to protect a person’s life or physical safety and another basis is unavailable.
Where consent is the basis, it may be withdrawn at any time. Withdrawal does not affect processing that was lawful before consent was withdrawn.
Sensitive information and Safekept™
Certain services may involve information that is confidential, sensitive or capable of causing harm if misused. Examples may include family circumstances, health-related logistics, household access arrangements, asset or insurance information, trusted contacts, emergency instructions and the location of important records.
Safekept™ is designed to help individuals and families organize critical information, trusted relationships and practical instructions for emergencies, incapacity or significant life transitions. A Safekept™ engagement may therefore require additional decisions about what information should be included, who may access it, how it should be stored and when it should be reviewed, returned or deleted.
How sensitive information may be handled
- Collection is limited to information reasonably needed for the agreed purpose.
- Access is restricted to authorized people with a legitimate role.
- Transfer methods are considered according to the sensitivity of the information.
- Instructions and permissions are documented where appropriate.
- Information may be separated, redacted or referenced rather than duplicated where that reduces risk.
- Retention, return and deletion requirements may be agreed specifically for the engagement.
How and why information may be disclosed
We do not sell personal information. We do not share personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising. We may disclose information in the circumstances described below, using only what is reasonably appropriate to the purpose.
Authorized people involved in the service
Information may be shared with family members, representatives, household staff, property managers, attorneys, accountants, financial advisors, insurance professionals, medical offices, contractors, vendors and other people when the client has authorized the coordination or the disclosure is reasonably necessary for the agreed responsibility.
Business and technology service providers
We may use providers for website hosting, content delivery and security, email delivery, communications, document storage, accounting, invoicing, scheduling, analytics, administration and other essential business functions. Providers receive only the information reasonably needed for their role and are expected to protect it under contract, law or professional obligations.
Professional advisors and insurers
We may disclose information to our attorneys, accountants, insurers, auditors and other professional advisors where needed for advice, risk management, claims, compliance or protection of legal rights.
Legal requirements, safety and protection
Information may be disclosed when we reasonably believe disclosure is required by law, court order or lawful government request, or is necessary to protect rights, property, systems, clients, service providers or the safety of a person.
Business reorganization
If NLM is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, sale of assets, reorganization or similar transaction, information may be disclosed to appropriate parties subject to confidentiality and used consistently with this policy unless notice is provided otherwise.
Cookies, server logs and website technology
The website may use cookies and similar technology to function, maintain security, remember preferences and understand performance. The technologies actually used may change as the website and its providers are updated.
Strictly necessary technology
These technologies support functions such as page delivery, security, fraud and spam prevention, load balancing, session management and form submission. Disabling them may prevent parts of the website from working properly.
Analytics and performance technology
If analytics is enabled, it may collect information about pages viewed, approximate location derived from an IP address, device and browser characteristics, referral source and interactions with the site. Where consent is required, non-essential analytics should be used only after the appropriate choice has been made.
Embedded or third-party content
If the website later includes maps, videos, scheduling tools, social content or other embedded services, those providers may collect information under their own policies. We will update this policy or provide additional notice where appropriate.
Browser controls and privacy signals
Most browsers allow cookies to be blocked or deleted. Because we do not sell personal information or use it for cross-context behavioural advertising, recognized opt-out signals such as Global Privacy Control generally do not change those practices. Where applicable law requires a signal to be honored for another activity, we will process it as required.
How long information is retained
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably needed for the purposes described in this policy, including service delivery, continuity, legal obligations, accounting, dispute resolution and protection of rights. The periods below are general guides rather than guarantees for every record.
| Record category | Typical retention approach | Why it may be retained |
|---|---|---|
| Unsuccessful or inactive enquiries | Normally up to 24 months after the last meaningful contact. | Responding to follow-up, maintaining context and demonstrating how an enquiry was handled. |
| Client contracts, billing and core business records | Normally for the engagement and up to seven years afterward. | Tax, accounting, contractual, insurance, audit and legal requirements. |
| Service, project and communication records | For the engagement and generally up to seven years afterward, unless a shorter or longer period is appropriate. | Continuity, completion of work, client instructions, disputes and protection of legal rights. |
| Safekept™ and specially protected information | As agreed for the engagement, including any return, review, archival or deletion instructions, subject to legal requirements. | Continuity purpose, client instructions and any contractual or legal obligations. |
| Website and security logs | Often between 30 and 180 days, with longer retention where needed to investigate security, misuse or technical incidents. | Security, troubleshooting, fraud prevention and system integrity. |
| Analytics information, if enabled | According to the configured analytics setting, generally no longer than reasonably necessary and often up to 14 months. | Understanding website performance and improving content and usability. |
| Marketing preferences and suppression records | Until consent is withdrawn or an objection is made; a minimal suppression record may be kept longer. | Respecting communication preferences and demonstrating compliance. |
Information may be retained longer where required by law, subject to a legal hold, needed for a dispute, necessary to protect a person or system, or contained in secure backups that are not immediately capable of selective deletion. When information is no longer required, it will be deleted, anonymized or securely disposed of as appropriate.
How we protect personal information
We use administrative, technical and physical safeguards intended to be proportionate to the nature of the information and the risks involved. No website, email system, storage provider or transmission method can be guaranteed completely secure.
- Limiting collection and avoiding unnecessary duplication of sensitive information.
- Restricting access according to role and legitimate need.
- Using authentication, access controls and secure configuration where available.
- Using reputable hosting, security, communication and storage providers.
- Maintaining website security, spam prevention, updates, backups and monitoring.
- Considering appropriate transfer methods before sensitive information is exchanged.
- Reviewing, returning, deleting or anonymizing information when it is no longer needed.
- Maintaining procedures for responding to suspected loss, misuse or unauthorized access.
Security incidents
If we become aware of an incident affecting personal information, we will assess the nature and likely consequences, take reasonable containment and remediation steps, and provide notifications where required by applicable law or contract.
Your privacy rights and choices
Privacy rights vary according to where you live, the nature of the relationship and whether a particular law applies to NLM or the processing. Subject to applicable law, you may have some or all of the following rights:
Access and confirmation
Ask whether we process your personal information and request access to information we hold about you.
Correction
Ask us to correct personal information that is inaccurate or incomplete.
Deletion
Ask us to delete personal information, subject to legal, contractual and other permitted retention grounds.
Restriction
Ask us to limit certain processing while accuracy, objections or legal issues are considered.
Objection
Object to certain processing based on legitimate interests or to direct marketing.
Portability
Request certain information in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format where the right applies.
Withdraw consent
Withdraw consent for future processing when consent is the legal basis.
Opt-out rights
Opt out of sale, targeted advertising or certain profiling where those activities occur and applicable law grants the right. NLM does not currently engage in those activities.
Appeal
Appeal a decision on a verified privacy request where applicable law provides an appeal right.
Non-discrimination
Exercise applicable privacy rights without unlawful discrimination or retaliation.
How to submit a request
Contact us using the privacy email link below or the contact page. State that your message is a privacy request, describe the right you wish to exercise and provide enough information for us to identify the relevant records.
We may need to verify your identity and authority before acting. Verification will be proportionate to the request and the sensitivity of the information. Please do not send identity documents unless specifically requested through an appropriate method. An authorized agent may make a request where applicable law permits, but evidence of authority may be required.
We will respond within the period required by applicable law. If more time is lawfully permitted and reasonably needed, we will explain the extension. A request may be denied or limited where an exemption applies, records cannot reasonably be verified, the request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, or retention is required or permitted by law.
Complaints
Please contact us first so that we can try to resolve the concern. Depending on your location and applicable law, you may also have the right to complain to a state attorney general, data protection authority or other privacy regulator. UK or European visitors may have the right to complain to the supervisory authority in their country.
International visitors and cross-border processing
NLM is based in the United States. If you contact us or receive services from outside the United States, your information may be processed in the United States and other countries where our service providers operate. Privacy laws in those countries may differ from the laws where you live.
Where applicable law requires safeguards for an international transfer, we will use an appropriate legal mechanism or take other required steps. These may include contractual protections, transfer assessments, provider certifications or reliance on a permitted derogation for a particular transaction.
Children’s information
This website and our services are not directed to children under 13, and children should not submit personal information through the website. We do not knowingly collect personal information online directly from children under 13 without appropriate parental authorization.
A client engagement may involve information about children when it is reasonably necessary for family scheduling, travel, household coordination, emergency planning or another agreed service. In those situations, the information should be provided by or with the authority of a parent, guardian or other authorized adult and used only for the relevant purpose.
Third-party websites and services
The website may link to other websites, professional providers, social platforms, maps, scheduling services or other third-party resources. A link does not mean that NLM controls or endorses the third party’s privacy practices.
Information you provide directly to a third party is governed by that party’s privacy notice and terms. You should review those materials before providing personal or confidential information.
Changes to this privacy policy
We may update this policy when our services, technology, providers, legal obligations or privacy practices change. The current version will be published on this page with an updated date.
If a change materially affects how personal information already collected is used, we will provide additional notice or obtain consent where applicable law requires it. We encourage visitors and clients to review the policy periodically.

Our data-handling principles
Discretion should be reflected in the way information is collected and used.
Purpose before collection
We consider why information is needed and avoid collecting sensitive details through an inappropriate channel.
Access according to need
Information should be available to the people who need it for an authorized role, not exposed more broadly.
Retention with an endpoint
Information should be reviewed, returned, deleted or anonymized when the purpose and legal requirements no longer justify keeping it.
