1. What information do we collect and what do we do with it?
When you enroll as a student or subscriber (“learner”) on my Thinkific website and/or related courses, as part of the enrolling process, I collect the personal information you give us such as your name, email address and country.
Email marketing: I may send you emails about my Thinkific website and/or related course(s), registration, course content, your course progress or other updates. I may also use your email to inform you about changes to the course, survey you about your usage, or collect your opinion. At any time, you can unsubscribe from my email list. To let me know you no longer want to receive any of my emails, simply contact me by email at [email protected].
2. How do you get my consent?
When you provide me with personal information to become a learner on my Thinkific website, make a purchase, or participate in the course, you imply that you consent to my collecting it and using it for that specific reason only.
If I ask for your personal information for a secondary reason, like marketing, I will either ask you directly for your expressed consent, or provide you with an opportunity to say no.
3. How do I withdraw my consent?
If after you opt-in, you change your mind, you may withdraw your consent for me to contact you, for the continued collection, use or disclosure of your information, at anytime, by contacting me at [email protected].
4. Disclosure
I may disclose your personal information if I am required by law to do so or if you violate my Terms of Use.
5. Thinkific
My course(s) and Thinkific website are/is hosted by Thinkific Labs Inc. (“Thinkific”). They provide me with the online course creation platform that allow me to sell my product(s) to you.
Your data is stored through Thinkific’s data storage, databases and the general Thinkific application. They store your data on a secure server behind a firewall.
Payment
If you make a purchase on my Thinkfic website, I use a third party payment processor such as Stripe or Paypal. Payments are encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as is necessary to complete your purchase transaction.
All direct payment gateways adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover.
PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our site and related courses and its service providers.

6. Third Party Services
In general, the third-party providers used by me, for example Quaderno, Thinkific and Paypal, will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to me.
However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information I am required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions.
For these providers, I recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers.
Certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located in a different jurisdiction than either you or me. If you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.
As an example, if you are located in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in the United States, then your personal information used in completing that transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States legislation, including the Patriot Act.
Once you leave my Thinkific website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or my website’s Terms of Service.
Links
When you click on links on my Thinkific website and/or within my course(s), they may direct you away from my Thinkific website. I am not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites and encourage you to read their privacy statements.
7. Security
To protect your personal information, I take reasonable precautions and follow industry best practices to make sure it is not inappropriately lost, misused, accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed.
If you provide me with your credit card information, the information is encrypted using secure socket layer technology (SSL) and stored with a AES-256 encryption. Although no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, we follow all PCI-DSS requirements and implement additional generally accepted industry standards.
