This policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices you have. It applies to this website, our contact form, and the email and text messages we send.

Information we collect

We collect information you provide to us directly, primarily through the contact form on this website:

• Name
• Mobile phone number
• Email address
• Your consent selections for text messaging
• The content of any message or enquiry you send us

If you purchase a program, our payment processor collects the billing details needed to complete your transaction. We do not store full payment card numbers.

We also collect standard technical information automatically, such as IP address, browser type, device type, referring page and pages visited, in order to operate, secure and improve the site.

How we use your information

• To reply to your enquiry and provide customer support
• To send you access links, reminders and materials for trainings you have asked to attend
• To deliver the programs, resources and bonuses you have requested
• To send service and account communications relating to purchases
• To send promotional communications about our programs, where you have consented
• To operate, secure, analyse and improve our website and services
• To comply with our legal obligations

Text messaging and mobile information

How we collect SMS consent. We send text messages only to people who give express written consent by providing their mobile number in the contact form on this website and ticking the applicable SMS consent box. There are separate consent boxes for non-marketing messages and for marketing messages, and you may choose either, both, or neither. The boxes are never pre-ticked. Consent to receive text messages is never required in order to contact us, attend a training, or make a purchase, and providing your phone number alone does not constitute consent to receive text messages.

What you may receive. If you consent to non-marketing messages, you may receive replies to your enquiry, training access links and reminders, appointment confirmations, and account and service updates. If you separately consent to marketing messages, you may also receive promotional offers and event invitations relating to our programs.

Opting out and getting help. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to any message to opt out at any time; we will send one confirmation message and you will receive nothing further. Reply HELP for assistance, or contact us at [email protected] or +1 (786) 706-0343. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. You must be 18 or older to receive messages from us.

How we share information

We do not sell or rent your personal information, and we do not share it with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing purposes.

We share personal information only with service providers who process it on our behalf in order to run our business, and only to the extent needed to perform their service for us. These categories include:

• Website, funnel and CRM hosting
• Email delivery
• Text message delivery, including messaging aggregators and mobile carriers
• Webinar and video hosting
• Payment processing
• Website analytics (this never includes mobile numbers or opt-in data)

These providers are bound by contract to protect your information and may not use it for their own purposes. We may also disclose information where required by law, to enforce our terms, or to protect our rights, safety or property. None of the disclosures described in this section ever include SMS opt-in data or consent, which is never shared with any third party.

Data security

We protect your information using industry-standard safeguards. Data is transmitted over encrypted HTTPS/TLS connections and stored on access-controlled servers operated by our service providers. Access to personal information is limited to personnel who need it to operate our business and is protected by strong authentication. We review our security practices periodically and use reputable processors for hosting, email, SMS and payments. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect your information and will notify you of any breach affecting your personal data as required by law.

Data retention

We keep your information for as long as needed to provide our services, maintain records of consent, and meet our legal and tax obligations, after which we delete or anonymise it. Records of SMS opt-in and opt-out are retained for as long as required to demonstrate compliance.

Your choices and rights

• Text messages: reply STOP to any message to opt out at any time.
• Email: use the unsubscribe link in any marketing email.
• Access, correction or deletion: email us and we will action your request in accordance with applicable law.
• Do not sell or share: we do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined under US state privacy laws, so there is nothing to opt out of.

To exercise any right, contact us at [email protected]. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights.

Cookies and tracking

We use cookies and similar technologies to keep the site working, remember your preferences, and measure the performance of our content and advertising. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings; some parts of the site may not function properly if you do.

Third-party links

Our site may link to third-party websites and social media profiles. We are not responsible for their privacy practices, and we encourage you to read their policies before providing information to them.

Children

Our services are intended for adults. They are not directed to anyone under 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised, and material changes will be posted here.
