  • Consent: Processing based on your explicit consent, such as subscribing to our newsletter. You may withdraw consent at any time.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

What cookies we use

Essential cookies are required for the Site to function. These include session cookies used by WooCommerce to manage your cart and checkout process. You cannot opt out of these without affecting site functionality.

Analytics cookies are set by Google Analytics (measurement ID: G-QDZVMTRPQG) to help us understand visitor behavior. These cookies collect data in aggregate form and do not personally identify you. We use Google Analytics 4, which does not store full IP addresses.

Third-party cookies may be set by embedded YouTube videos and by Stripe during the checkout process. These are governed by the respective privacy policies of those services.

Managing cookies

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Please note that disabling essential cookies may prevent you from completing purchases on our Site.

For more information about cookies and how to manage them, visit allaboutcookies.org.

Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services that may collect or process your data:

Stripe processes all payments on our Site. When you make a purchase, your payment information is transmitted directly to Stripe’s servers. We do not see or store your full credit card number. Stripe’s privacy policy: https://stripe.com/privacy

Google Analytics helps us understand how visitors use our Site. We have configured Google Analytics to anonymize IP addresses. Google’s privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

Mailchimp manages our email newsletter. If you subscribe, your email address and engagement data (opens, clicks) are stored on Mailchimp’s servers. Mailchimp’s privacy policy: https://www.intuit.com/privacy/statement/

YouTube hosts our video content. When you view pages with embedded YouTube videos, YouTube may set cookies and collect usage data. YouTube’s privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

Vercel hosts our website frontend. Vercel may collect server logs including IP addresses. Vercel’s privacy policy: https://vercel.com/legal/privacy-policy

Hostinger hosts our content management system and WooCommerce backend. Hostinger’s privacy policy: https://www.hostinger.com/privacy-policy

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party.

Digital Product Purchases

When you purchase a digital product (such as a PDF journal), the transaction is processed through WooCommerce and Stripe. After successful payment:

  • You will receive an email with a download link for your purchased product
  • Download links are limited in the number of times they can be used and have an expiration period
  • We retain your purchase records (name, email, product purchased, transaction date, and amount) for accounting, tax compliance, and customer support purposes

All digital product sales are final. Due to the nature of downloadable products, we do not offer refunds once the product has been delivered.

Email Communications

Transactional emails are sent automatically when you make a purchase. These include order confirmations, receipts, and download links. These are not marketing emails and are necessary to fulfill your order.

Newsletter emails are sent only if you have voluntarily subscribed through our Mailchimp signup form. Each newsletter email includes an unsubscribe link at the bottom. You may unsubscribe at any time, and we will stop sending marketing emails within 48 hours of your request.

We do not add your email address to our newsletter list simply because you made a purchase. Transactional and marketing communications are handled separately.

Data Retention

We retain your data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy:

  • Purchase records are retained for a minimum of 5 years to comply with Polish tax and accounting regulations.
  • Email subscriber data is retained until you unsubscribe, at which point your email address is removed from our active mailing list within 30 days.
  • Analytics data is retained in Google Analytics for 14 months, after which it is automatically deleted.
  • Website server logs are retained by our hosting providers according to their own retention policies.

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:

  • Access: You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Rectification: You may request that we correct any inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Erasure: You may request that we delete your personal data, subject to legal retention requirements.
  • Restriction: You may request that we limit how we use your data.
  • Data portability: You may request that we provide your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
  • Objection: You may object to our processing of your data based on legitimate interests.
  • Withdraw consent: Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at the email address listed below. We will respond to your request within 30 days.

If you are located in the EEA and believe your data protection rights have been violated, you have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority. In Poland, this is the President of the Personal Data Protection Office (UODO): https://uodo.gov.pl

International Data Transfers

Your data may be processed in countries outside the EEA, including the United States, where some of our third-party service providers operate (PayPal, Stripe, Google, Mailchimp, Vercel). These transfers are conducted under appropriate safeguards, including Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission, or the service provider’s participation in recognized data protection frameworks.

Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include:

  • All data transmitted between your browser and our Site is encrypted using SSL/TLS (HTTPS)
  • Payment processing is handled entirely by Stripe, a PCI-DSS Level 1 certified payment processor
  • Access to our content management system and customer data is restricted to authorized personnel only
  • We use strong, unique passwords and two-factor authentication where available

No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure. While we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children’s Privacy

Our Site and products are not intended for children under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If we become aware that we have collected data from a child under 16 without parental consent, we will take steps to delete that information promptly.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make changes, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. If we make significant changes that affect how we handle your data, we will notify you by email (if you are a subscriber or customer) or by posting a prominent notice on the Site.

We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
