Information Collected Automatically

Like many websites, we and our service providers use cookies, web beacons and other technologies to receive and store certain types of information when you interact with us through your computer or mobile device. Using these technologies helps us recognise you, customise your experience and make relevant marketing messages. Here are some of the types of information we collect:

  • Log & Device data. When you visit our site, we may automatically record information (“log data”), including information that your browser sends whenever you visit our site. This log data may include the web address you came from or are going to, your device model, operating system, browser type, unique device identifier, IP address, mobile network carrier, and time zone or location.
  • Cookie data. We may use “cookies” (a small text file sent by your computer each time you visit our site) or similar technologies to record log data. When we use cookies, we may use “session” cookies (that last until you close your browser) or “persistent” cookies (that last until you or your browser delete them). To help us make e-mails more useful and interesting, we often receive a confirmation when you open e-mail from us if your computer supports such capabilities. You can opt out of receiving emails from us. Please see the Your Choices section below.

HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION

We may use information that we collect about you to:

  • Provide our Products and Services. We will use your information to provide our products and services to you.
  • Understand and improve our products. We will perform research and analysis about your use of, or interest in, our products, services, or content. We do this to help make our products better and to develop new products.
  • Communicate with you. We may send you emails about new product features or other news about us or on topics we think would be relevant to you. You may opt out of these at any time. Visit the Your Choices section below.
  • Responding to your requests. We will also use your information to respond to your questions or comments.

We may contact you to inform you about changes in our services, our service offering and other important service-related notices such as changes to the privacy policy or about security or fraud notices.

We also may use your information to manage our business or perform functions as otherwise described to you at the time of collection.

Sharing and Disclosure

We do not share your personal information with others except as indicated within this policy or when we inform you and give you an opportunity to opt out of having your personal information shared.

We will share your information in the following ways:

With third party service providers, agents, or contractors:

We use other companies, agents or contractors (“Service Providers”) to perform services on our behalf or to assist us with providing services to you. For example, we may engage Service Providers to process credit card transactions or other payment methods, or to provide services such as marketing, communications, infrastructure and IT services, customer service, and data analysis. These Service Providers may have access to your personal or other information in order to provide these functions. We do not authorise them to use or disclose your personal information except in connection with providing their services.

 

Analytics:

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service offered by Google that tracks and reports website traffic. Google uses the data collected to monitor the use of our Service. This data may be shared with other Google services.

You can opt out of having your activity on the Service made available to Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. For more information on Google’s privacy practices, please visit https://policies.google.com/privacy.

Payment Providers:

We may provide paid products and/or services within the site. When we do, we use third-party services for payment processing. We will not store or collect your payment card details. That information is provided directly to our third-party payment processors whose use of your personal information is governed by their own privacy notice. The payment processors we work with adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council.

The payment processors we work with are:

Stripe – please view their privacy policy at https://stripe.com/gb/privacy

PayPal – please view their privacy policy at https://www.paypal.com/uk/webapps/mpp/ua/privacy-prev

To comply with legal process or to protect The Profitable Baker Academy:

If we believe that disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with a law, regulation, legal or governmental request; to enforce applicable terms of use; to protect the safety, rights, or property of the public, any person, or The Profitable Baker Academy; or to detect, prevent, or otherwise address security or technical issues or illegal or suspected illegal activities (including fraud).

Recognised legitimate interests:

In limited circumstances, we may rely on a “recognised legitimate interest” as our lawful basis for processing, for example to detect, investigate or prevent crime, or to safeguard vulnerable individuals. Where we do this, we are not required to carry out a balancing test against your rights, but we will only do so for the specific purposes recognised under data protection law.

Business Transfers:

We may engage in a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy, dissolution, reorganisation, or similar transaction or proceeding that involves the transfer of the information described in this Policy. In such transitions, customer information is typically one of the business assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. In the unlikely event that we or substantially all of our assets are acquired or enter a court proceeding, you acknowledge that such transfers may occur and that your personal information can continue to be used as set forth in this privacy policy.

Links to Other Sites:

We may have links on our site to other sites that we do not operate. If you click on a third-party link, you will be taken directly to that site, which is governed by its own privacy notice. We strongly encourage you to read that privacy notice. We do not control that site and assume no responsibility for its content, policies or practices.

Retention

The Profitable Baker Academy will retain your Personal Data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Notice. We will retain and use your Personal Data to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies.

The Profitable Baker Academy will also retain Usage Data for internal analysis purposes. Usage Data is generally retained for a shorter period of time, except when this data is used to strengthen the security or improve the functionality of our Service, or we are legally obligated to retain this data for longer time periods.

Choices and Individual Rights

We aim to take reasonable steps so you can correct, amend, delete or limit the use of your Personal Data.

You have the following choices:

  • E-mail. If you do not wish to receive promotional e-mails from us, you may opt out at any time.
  • Your browser’s help function should contain instructions on how to set your computer to accept all cookies, to notify you when a cookie is issued, or to refuse cookies at any time.

  • To access and receive a copy of the Personal Data we hold about you.
  • To rectify any Personal Data held about you that is inaccurate.
  • To request the deletion of Personal Data held about you.

Making a Complaint

If you have any concerns about how we have handled your personal data, we want to hear from you directly first.

To make a complaint, please email admin@anniebennett.co.uk with details of your concern. We will acknowledge your complaint promptly and aim to investigate and respond within 30 days. If we need longer due to the complexity of the issue, we will let you know and explain why.

Security

We believe we use reasonable administrative, logical, physical and managerial measures to safeguard your personal information against loss, theft and unauthorised access, use and modification. Unfortunately, no measures can be guaranteed to provide 100% security. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee the security of your information.

Our policy on children’s information

Our site is not directed to children under 18. If you learn that your minor child has provided us with personal information without your consent, please contact us.

International Transfers

If we transfer any personal data outside the UK, we will ensure appropriate safeguards are in place in line with UK data protection law.
