Peggy Sullivan Speaker respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store and protect information when you visit our website, contact us, subscribe to our communications, participate in our programs or complete the Time Poverty Index (TPI).

It also explains how we use assessment information to support ongoing research into Time Poverty, workplace capacity and performance.

The information we collect depends on how you interact with us.

  • Any additional information you voluntarily provide as part of the assessment.

  • Contact information or organizational details associated with your participation, where applicable.

Website and technical information

When you visit our website or use our online services, we may collect limited technical information, including:

  • Browser and device type.

  • Website pages visited and interactions with our content.

  • Basic information used to maintain website functionality, security and performance.

  • Cookie preferences and consent choices.

We do not use basic browser or device information collected for website operations to identify individual TPI participants for research purposes.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use information collected through our website, communications and services to:

  • Respond to enquiries and provide requested information.

  • Deliver speaking engagements, workshops, coaching and corporate programs.

  • Manage event registrations and communications.

  • Send newsletters, articles, updates and promotional communications where permitted.

  • Administer the Time Poverty Index and generate individual assessment results.

  • Identify patterns affecting workplace capacity, focus, energy and performance.

  • Produce aggregated reports for participating organizations and groups.

  • Conduct research into Time Poverty and workplace capacity.

  • Improve the TPI assessment, our research and educational resources.

  • Maintain and improve the security and performance of our website and services.

  • Comply with applicable legal obligations.

Where required by applicable law, we process personal information on an appropriate legal basis, which may include consent, fulfilling a requested service, legitimate business interests or compliance with legal obligations.

3. The Time Poverty Index

The Time Poverty Index is an assessment developed by Peggy Sullivan to help individuals and organizations better understand the factors contributing to Time Poverty.

The assessment examines three areas:

  • Focus & Execution: The ability to concentrate on and make progress with important priorities.

  • Energy & Recovery: The impact of work demands on personal energy and opportunities for recovery.

  • Work Design: How workplace structures, expectations and activities affect available capacity.

Responses are used to calculate an individual TPI score, domain scores and Time Poverty profile.

The results are intended to provide insight into patterns of Time Poverty and opportunities to improve how time, attention and energy are used.

Individual assessment results

Depending on how the assessment is accessed, individual responses and results may be associated with identifying information, such as an email address or organizational participation record.

These records are treated as personal information where an individual can be identified.

Individual assessment information may be used to generate results, administer the assessment and provide related services.

Organizational and cohort reporting

When the TPI is completed as part of a corporate program, workshop or event, Peggy Sullivan Speaker may prepare reports summarizing findings across a participating group.

These reports may include:

  • Average TPI and domain scores.

  • Distribution of Time Poverty profiles.

  • Common patterns affecting focus, energy and work design.

  • Aggregated estimates of time spent on low-value activities.

  • Insights into opportunities to improve workplace capacity.

Organizational reports are designed to communicate group-level findings rather than identify individual participants.

We take appropriate steps to reduce the risk of identifying individuals through small groups, detailed breakdowns or combinations of information.

Individual assessment responses are not routinely provided to employers or event organizers as part of aggregated cohort reporting.

Any arrangement involving identifiable individual results would require separate consideration, appropriate transparency and a valid legal basis.

4. Research and Anonymized Data

The Time Poverty Index also supports Peggy Sullivan’s ongoing research into Time Poverty, workplace capacity and performance.

Assessment responses may be analyzed to identify broader patterns, evaluate the assessment and develop research findings.

For research purposes, we seek to separate information used for statistical analysis from information that directly identifies participants.

This may include:

  • Removing names, email addresses and other direct identifiers from research datasets.

  • Excluding private coaching notes and identifying free-text information from anonymized research records.

  • Using non-identifying research references where necessary.

  • Excluding browser and device information that is not needed for research.

  • Presenting findings in aggregated form.

Information that has been pseudonymized or assigned a research reference may still be considered personal information if an individual can reasonably be identified through other available information.

We distinguish between identifiable, pseudonymized and genuinely anonymized information when managing research data.

Research findings may be used in reports, publications, articles, presentations, educational resources and other communications.

These findings are intended to describe broader trends rather than identify individual participants.

5. Marketing Communications

We use ActiveCampaign to manage our mailing list and marketing communications.

If you subscribe or otherwise agree to receive marketing communications, we may send you:

  • Newsletters and articles.

  • Research findings and insights.

  • Information about speaking engagements, events and workshops.

  • Updates about Peggy Sullivan’s programs, books and services.

Completing the Time Poverty Index does not automatically mean you have subscribed to marketing communications.

Where marketing consent is required, it is requested separately from participation in the assessment.

You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link included in our messages.

Unsubscribing from marketing communications does not automatically delete information retained for other legitimate purposes, such as assessment administration or service delivery.

Our TPI infrastructure includes a database hosted through Neon, subject to confirmation of the current production configuration.
