French Cooking Academy may collect personal information that you voluntarily provide when making a purchase, creating an account, subscribing to communications, or contacting our support team. This information may include your name, email address, billing details, payment confirmation data, and any other information you choose to share with us. Payment information is processed securely through third-party payment providers, and French Cooking Academy does not store or have direct access to full payment card details.
In addition to information you actively provide, we may automatically collect certain technical data when you visit our website. This may include IP address, browser type, device information, operating system, referral source, pages visited, and time spent on the site. This data is collected through cookies and similar technologies and is used to improve website functionality, analyze performance, and enhance user experience.
The personal information we collect is used solely for legitimate business purposes. These purposes include providing access to purchased digital products, delivering educational content, processing transactions, communicating important service-related information, responding to inquiries, improving our offerings, and maintaining the security and integrity of our platform. We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.
French Cooking Academy may share limited personal data with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating our website and delivering services, such as payment processors, email communication platforms, hosting providers, and analytics services. These third parties are granted access only to the information necessary to perform their specific functions and are required to handle data in compliance with applicable data protection laws.
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. While no method of electronic storage or transmission over the internet is completely secure, we strive to use commercially acceptable safeguards to protect your data.
Personal data is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, comply with legal and accounting obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. When personal data is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymized.
You have the right to access, correct, update, or request deletion of your personal information, subject to applicable legal requirements. You may also object to or restrict certain types of data processing. Requests related to personal data can be submitted using the contact information provided on our website, and we will respond within a reasonable timeframe.
