A Coach-Client Relationship is Confidential

Coach agrees to maintain the ethics and standards of behaviour established by the Association for Coaching “(AC)” global codes of ethics. It is recommended that the Client review the AC Code of Ethics and the applicable standards of behaviour.

This coaching relationship, as well as all information (documented or verbal) that the Client shares with the Coach as part of this relationship, is bound by the principles of confidentiality set forth in the AC Code of Ethics. However, please be aware that the Coach-Client relationship is not considered a legally confidential relationship (like the medical and legal professions) and thus communications are not subject to the protection of any legally recognized privilege. The Coach agrees not to disclose any information pertaining to the Client without the Client’s written consent. The Coach will not disclose the Client’s name as a reference without the Client’s consent.
