We may also receive data from third parties like Google
Analytics, Facebook and other advertising platforms, providers of technical or
payment services as needed, and other similar third parties. We do our best to
only utilize third parties who have been deemed GDPR-compliant, and whom we
have either completed a data processing agreement with, or have reviewed and
confirmed their policies regarding data processing to ensure compliance.
How We Use Your Information You Provide
You have the right to know and understand how your information
is used. We will use the personally identifiable information you voluntarily
give us in order to carry out the service or product you requested, including
free resources, trainings, newsletters, periodic promotional emails, and to
notify you about any changes to our policies or services. We may also use
your personal information to form “look-a-like” audiences in our digital marketing
campaigns, which includes uploading your information into our social media
advertising campaign.
If you purchase something from us, we will use your billing
address and credit card information to complete your desired purchase or
purchases only, and will not store or share any such information. By providing
this information to us, you understand and agree that we may use and store such
information to send emails, bill credit cards in exchange for programs or
products purchased, or utilize comments for marketing purposes.

products or services.
Non-Personally Identifiable Information: Additional
non-identifying information that is collected may be used to provide an
overview of how people are accessing and using Website; it is not used for any
additional purposes, and Website does not use any such data to make automated
decisions. We may also record some or all information to help create a better
user experience. We may use information such as your IP address to help
diagnose technical problems with servers or our website, and to determine which
portions of our website receive the most traffic, to understand which content
is the most useful to our visitors. Your IP address will not personally
identify you, and may be used in such limited purposes as outlined above, in
order to improve user experience.
How Information is Stored and Shared
You have the right to know what information is stored (and not
stored) and how it is processed. Your information is stored through a data
management system, and it is important to us to take appropriate measures to ensure
your information is kept confidential. You understand that there are limited
purposes where we will share your confidential information, including with
those who are providing technical support for our website, or those who are
members of our team, including legal and accounting. Any parties who will have
access to your information will keep such information confidential and will
never share with any unrelated parties to the best of our abilities.
information provided by you will never be shared, sold, or given to any other
company or person without your consent, other than what is required to complete
a purchase or request you have made, unless required to do so by law, or any
governmental requirements. We require all such third parties to treat your personal
information in accordance with the law, and only allow them to process your
personal data for specific, necessary purposes.
Please be aware we may disclose information provided if we are
required to do so by law, or if there is an honest, good faith belief that such
disclose is necessary to protect the rights of our website or of Ali Christian
Consulting LLC that any portion of our policies are being violated, to prevent
or mitigate a belief that a crime may being committed, or to protect that safety
or rights of our other uses. This information may also be shared as a result of
the sale of Ali Christian Consulting LLC or any branch of the company, as well
as with any joint venture partners or affiliate marketers, should we deem it
necessary to share such information. We will always take all reasonable
measures to protect and safeguard your information.
This website, and the servers and parties which made this
website available on a global scale, are located within and operate within the
United States. The internet laws of the United States and New York govern any
and all matters relating to this Website, including content, as well as the
principles of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) as they apply to
residents of the European Union. Any information you choose to provide through
this website, including subscribing to a newsletter, opting-in to receive a
free gift, or purchasing something will be transferred to the United States for
processing. That information may then be transferred within the United States
or back out of the United States to other countries outside of your country of
residence, depending on the type of information, and how it is stored by us. If
transferred to another country, it may not have data protection laws that are
as comprehensive or protective as those in your country of residence; however,
our collection, storage, and use of your Personal Information will at all times
be governed by this Privacy Policy. By visiting our Website, you acknowledge
this information, and by submitting any personal information onto our Website,
you hereby authorize this transfer and processing of information.
By collecting and using your personal data, We are acting as a
data controller, meaning we determine what information is collected, how long
it is stored, and what the Personal Information will be used for. We utilize a
third-party company to act as a data processor, which stores information such
as names and email addresses that make up our email list. To the best of our
ability, we have researched and concluded that all third party data processors
we use have advised us they are compliant with the General Data Protection
Regulations as well.
Information Protection & Security
We use commercially reasonable methods to safeguard your
personal data, including that which you provide to use, and that which we
collect automatically, by using reasonable online security measures, and
sharing your data with reputable third party vendors that are compliant with
generally accepted security and safety measures. We utilize a Secure Sockets
Layer (SSL) on our website in order to assist in the secure transfer of
information; however, it can never be guaranteed. Should We become aware that a
data breach has occurred, We will timely notify the necessary parties with as
much information as we have available.
While our team does our best to protect the information we
collect, and prevent any misuse, unauthorized access, or disclosure, you
understand that we cannot be responsible should an unauthorized third party
obtain access to our information, without our consent. Should our website be
tampered with, you understand that your personal information may be accessed by
these unauthorized parties. You agree that we are not responsible for any such
actions, and acknowledge you will hold us harmless should your information
become intercepted in this way without our knowledge, permission, or consent,
which includes a release of any and all claims related to use of such
information by such an unauthorized party.
We have determined it is not required to appoint a Data
Protection Officer, as our core activities do not consist of processing
operations that require regular and systematic monitoring of data subjects nor
do we process sensitive categories of data on a large scale.
Data Retention
We will retain the minimum amount of Personal Information
required of yours, including name, email address, and behavior tracking, as
long as you elect to remain on our mailing list, and any additional Personal
Information as long as it is needed in order to fulfil the purpose for which it
was initially collected, such as completing a purchase. We will also retain and
use collected information as necessary in order to comply with any legal
obligations, resolve any disputes, or as otherwise reasonably determined. If at
any point you elect to be removed from our database, your information
will be deleted, and no longer retained.
