Privacy Policy
1. Introduction
Welcome to the 8 Week Vetting Program ("we," "us," or "our"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring that your personal information is handled in compliance with applicable laws in North America (including the United States, Canada) and the United Kingdom. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your information when you visit our website (8weekvettingprogram.com) or purchase our services.
2. Information We Collect
We may collect the following types of information:
- Personal Information: Name, email address, payment details, and optionally device ID or location data (if enabled) when you purchase the 8 Week Vetting Program or subscribe to updates.
- Usage Data: IP address, browser type, pages visited, time spent, and device information, collected via cookies or analytics tools like Google Analytics.
- Communication Data: Messages sent via email or our WhatsApp community.
We do not collect sensitive data (e.g., health or financial history) beyond what is necessary for transaction processing.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use your information to:
- Process and deliver the 8 Week Vetting Program, including PDF downloads and bonus materials.
- Send marketing emails (with an unsubscribe option) about our products or affiliates, based on your consent.
- Improve our website and services based on usage analytics.
- Comply with legal obligations, such as tax or refund requests.
We do not sell your personal data to third parties but may share it with service providers (e.g., Stripe for payments, Mailchimp for emails, Google for analytics) under strict confidentiality agreements.
4. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you have the following rights:
- Access: Request a copy of your data (CCPA, GDPR).
- Deletion: Request removal of your data (CCPA "Right to be Forgotten," GDPR Article 17).
- Correction: Update inaccurate data.
- Opt-Out: Unsubscribe from marketing emails (CAN-SPAM Act, GDPR) or object to processing.
To exercise these rights, email us at [email protected]. We will respond within 30 days and document your request with a digital timestamp. We do not sell your personal information to third parties. If this changes, we will notify you and provide an option to opt-out via a ‘Do Not Sell My Personal Information’ link.
5. Cookies and Tracking
We use cookies to enhance your experience and analyze traffic. You can manage cookie preferences via your browser settings. Third-party tools like Google Analytics may track usage, but we anonymize IP addresses where possible. We do not currently respond to Do Not Track signals, but you can manage tracking preferences via your browser. For detailed cookie information, see our Cookie Policy (to be developed).
6. Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures (e.g., SSL encryption) to protect your data. However, no online transmission is fully secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute protection. In case of a data breach, we will notify affected users within 72 hours as required by GDPR, provide support resources, and investigate the cause. Data may be transferred to secure servers in the U.S., EU, or other non-adequate countries (e.g., India), protected by standard contractual clauses or other safeguards under GDPR.
We retain your data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined (e.g., 1 year for marketing, 5 years for transaction records), after which it is securely deleted unless required by law.
7. Compliance
This policy complies with:
- FTC Guidelines (U.S.): Transparent data practices and opt-out options.
- CCPA (California): Rights to know, delete, and opt-out of data sales.
- PIPEDA (Canada): Consent-based collection and accountability.
- GDPR (UK/EU): Lawful basis, data minimization, and user rights.
Our lawful basis for processing includes: (a) Consent (for marketing emails), (b) Performance of a contract (for program delivery), and (c) Legitimate interests (for analytics and service improvement). We obtain your consent for data collection at the point of purchase or subscription (via an opt-in checkbox), which you may withdraw by contacting us. This site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data (COPPA compliance).
