Welcome. This is how Becoming Antoinette handles information you share with us, how we use it, and what control you have over it. If you don’t agree with something here, you’re free to stop using the site.
1. What Info We Collect
We gather two kinds of information:
a. Personal Information
That’s stuff that identifies you: name, phone number, and email address.
b. Non-Personal / Usage Info
Things like which pages you visit, how long you stay, what you click, your IP address, browser type, device info. Basically logs and analytics.
2. How We Use What You Give Us
We use your data for things like:
- To respond to any messages or enquiries you send.
- To provide, maintain, and improve the website (fix bugs, decide what content to build next).
- If you sign up for newsletters, to send you updates or offers or content you asked for.
- To comply with legal obligations if needed.
3. Sharing / Disclosure
We generally don’t share your personal info with others, except in these cases:
- To vendors or service providers who help us run the site (email service, hosting, analytics), but only what they need and under confidentiality conditions.
- If legally required (court orders, laws).
4. Cookies & Tracking
We, or our service providers, may use cookies and similar technologies to gather non-personal info:
- To understand how visitors use the website.
- To personalize content if applicable.
You can disable cookies via your browser settings, though that might affect how some parts of the site work.
5. Third-Party Links
We might link to other websites (partners, social media, etc.). We’re not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites — check their policies.
6. Data Retention
We keep your personal info only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined here (responding to you, providing services, etc.). After that, we either delete it or anonymize it.
7. Your Rights & Choices
You have rights. Depending on where you are, you may:
- Access what personal data we have about you.
- Ask us to correct or update it.
- Request deletion.
- Opt-out of marketing emails.
- Sometimes object to or limit certain processing of your data.
8. Security
We take steps to protect your information — encryption, secure servers, etc. But no system is perfect. We can’t guarantee 100% security, just reasonable measures.
9. Changes to This Policy
If we change this policy, we’ll post the change here and update the “Last updated” date. If it’s a big change, we’ll try to tell you (e.g. via email or notice on the website).
