Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how The Win Within Academy ("Win Within Academy," "we," "us," or "our"), based in California, United States, collects, uses, and shares information when you visit our website, subscribe to our communications, contact us, or otherwise interact with us.

Information we collect

We collect information that you choose to provide to us, including:

• Newsletter information: your first name and email address when you join our community or subscribe to communications.
• Contact information: your name, email address, and message, along with any optional organization, role, phone number, or area-of-interest information you submit through our contact form.
• Communications: information you include when you contact or correspond with us.

Our website and service providers may also automatically receive limited technical information, such as your IP address, browser or device type, referring page, and information about how a form or page functions. We do not currently use Google Analytics or similar website analytics tools.

How we use information

We may use information to:

• respond to questions, requests, and inquiries;
• send newsletters, Academy updates, resources, and other communications you request;
• understand interest in our programs, events, workshops, and community experiences;
• operate, maintain, protect, and improve the website and our communications;
• prevent spam, fraud, misuse, or security incidents; and
• comply with legal obligations and enforce our agreements.

Email communications

If you subscribe to our newsletter, we may send you news, resources, program announcements, and other Win Within Academy communications. You may unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link in an email or contacting us at info@winwithinacademy.com. Unsubscribing from marketing messages will not prevent us from sending a direct response to a request you submit.

Service providers

We use third-party providers to operate parts of the website. When you use the relevant feature, your information may be processed by:

• MailerLite, which hosts our newsletter signup form and manages subscriber information and email communications. Review MailerLite's Privacy Policy.
• Formspree, which processes and delivers submissions from our contact form. Review Formspree's Privacy Policy.
• Website hosting and infrastructure providers, which may process limited technical information needed to deliver and secure the website.

We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect rights and safety, or in connection with a merger, reorganization, or transfer of all or part of our organization. We do not sell personal information for money.

Cookies and similar technologies

Our service providers may use cookies, local storage, or similar technologies that are necessary to provide embedded forms, remember form-related preferences, prevent abuse, and maintain security. We do not currently use cookies for our own targeted advertising or Google Analytics. If our practices change, we will update this policy and provide any notice or choices required by law.

How long we keep information

We keep information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the requested communication or service, maintain appropriate records, resolve disputes, protect the website, and meet legal obligations. Newsletter information may be retained until you unsubscribe or request deletion, subject to limited records we may keep to honor your opt-out request.

Your choices and privacy rights

You may ask to access, correct, or delete personal information you have provided to us, or withdraw consent where applicable. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under applicable privacy law. To make a request, email info@winwithinacademy.com. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request, and certain legal exceptions may apply.

Children's privacy

Our website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information through this website, please contact us so we can take appropriate steps.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures intended to protect information. However, no internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Visitors outside the United States

Win Within Academy is based in the United States. If you access the website from another country, your information may be processed in the United States and other locations where our service providers operate, which may have different data-protection laws than your country.

External links

The website may link to third-party websites or services. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, not this Privacy Policy.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as our website, programs, or legal obligations change. We will post the revised policy on this page and update the effective date when appropriate.
