Hello and welcome to my website at www.soulalignedfrequency.com! Thank you for your interest in this Privacy Policy. In this Privacy Policy, I would like to inform you about the nature, scope, and purpose of Personal data we (that is me and the third parties acting on my behalf) process when you use my website and services.

  1. Use of cookies

We use so-called cookies on our web site. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your respective device (PC, smartphone, tablet, etc.) and saved by your browser. For further details on the use of Cookies, please refer to my Cookie Policy. The legal basis for the use of cookies is your consent as well as our legitimate interest.

Collection of personal data and information when provided

  1. Contact options via the website

Contacting me is made possible by e-mail, or social media. If you contact me, your transmitted personal data will be automatically stored for the purpose of processing the request or contacting you. Data processing for the purpose of contacting me is carried out on the basis of your voluntarily given consent or, in the case of a (pre-)contractual relationship with me, the initiation of a contractual service. I delete the data accruing in this context after the storage is no longer necessary for the processing of your request or restrict the processing if there are legal retention obligations.

  1. Working with me and my services

When requesting my services, it is necessary, among other things, to provide personal data such as your name, e-mail address and postal address and, if applicable, your payment data, and other non-personal data. I process and store the personal data provided when you request my services, solely for the purpose of providing you with the ordered service. Accordingly, the data is processed on the basis of our contractual relationship as well as to fulfil my legal obligations.

  1. Financial Information

To make a purchase, you may need to provide a valid payment method (e.g., credit or debit card). Your payment information will be collected and processed by my authorized payment vendor Stripe. We do not directly collect or store credit or debit card numbers ourselves in the ordinary course of processing transactions. Accordingly, the data is processed on the basis of our contractual relationship.

  1. My courses

My courses` content is hosted by Kajabi. The personal data collected from payment forms, workshop replay/course is stored on Kajabi’s servers. This may include, but is not limited to, IP addresses, contact requests, meta and communication data, contractual data, contact data, names, website accesses and other data generated via a website. Kajabi is used for the purpose of fulfilling the contract with our potential and existing users and in the interest of a secure, fast and efficient provision of my courses by a professional provider. Kajabi will only process your data to the extent necessary to fulfill its service obligations and follow our instructions regarding this data. 

e) Newsletter, notifications, and messaging

By using my services, you are giving your consent to receiving notifications and messages per email. Equally, you may also sign up for my newsletter. Those typically include administrative information as well as service and product updates. I use Flodesk Inc. for the dispatch of the newsletter and Gmail for e-mail notifications. The legal bases are to provide you with my services and your consent.

f) Hosting live events, workshops and courses

I use Zoom for hosting live events, workshops and courses and various types of data are processed when using an online platform for meetings. The scope of the data depends on the information you provide before or during the online meeting. The legal basis for this is my legitimate interest in effective customer communication and, insofar as it concerns an enquiry to enter into or fulfil a contract. 

g) Vimeo 

We have integrated components from Vimeo when you want to replay live events. The integration requires that Vimeo can perceive the IP address of the user. The IP address is required in order to send the video content to the user’s browser. If you click on a Vimeo component (video), your internet browser will be prompted by the component to download a corresponding representation of the component. In this way, Vimeo knows which specific sub-pages you have visited. The legal basis for the data processing is our legitimate interest and your consent.

h) Administration and contact management

I process data within the scope of administrative tasks as well as organization of my business, financial accounting, and compliance with legal obligations, such as archiving. In doing so, I process the same data that I process in the context of providing our contractual services. The purpose and my interest in the processing thus lies in the administration, financial accounting, archiving of data, i.e., tasks that serve the maintenance of our business activities, performance of our tasks and provision of our services. In this context, I disclose or transmit data to the tax authorities, consultants such as tax advisors or auditors as well as other fee offices and payment service providers. 

Disclosure of data to third parties, Security and Storage

  1. Disclosure of data to third parties

I will only share your personal data with third parties if:

  • you have given your express consent to do so,
  • the disclosure is necessary for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest worthy of protection in the non-disclosure of your data,
  • in the event that there is a legal obligation for disclosure, as well as
  • this is legally permissible and necessary for the processing of contractual relationships with you.

  1. General technical organizational measures (Security)

I have taken a variety of security measures to protect personal data to an appropriate extent and adequately. All information held by me is protected by physical, technical, and procedural measures that limit access to the information to specifically authorized persons and in accordance with the PIPEDA and GDPR and this Privacy Policy. 

In addition, where I use third parties to carry out processing only those who need the information to perform a specific job are granted access to personal data. If this is the case these companies act on my behalf by way of commissioned processing and may therefore use the data provided exclusively in accordance with our instructions. In this case, I’m legally responsible for appropriate data protection measures at the companies I commission. I therefore agree on specific data security measures with these companies and monitor them regularly.

If I use service providers in third countries, I take additional measures to ensure an adequate level of data protection for the transfer of personal data and thus ensure that the transfer is generally permissible and that the special requirements for a transfer to a third country are met (e.g., by concluding standard contracts and additional guarantees, supplementary technical and organizational measures such as encryption or anonymization).

Finally, I may need to disclose your data to authorities or government agencies if I`m legally obliged to do so, for example, due to official or court orders, or because this is necessary for the prosecution of criminal offences or for the exercise and enforcement of my rights and claims.

  1. Duration of storage

I store your personal data for as long as necessary to achieve the respective storage purpose. Afterwards, your data will be deleted, unless I am obliged to store it for a longer period of time due to tax, commercial or other legal storage or documentation obligations, or you have agreed to a storage beyond this period. 

Miscellaneous and closing

  1. Links to others

My website contains so-called hyperlinks to websites of other providers. When you activate these hyperlinks, you will be redirected from my website directly to the website of the other provider. You will recognize this by the change of URL, among other things. I cannot accept any responsibility for the confidential handling of your data on these third-party websites, as I have no influence on whether these companies comply with data protection regulations. Please inform yourself about the handling of your personal data by these companies directly on these websites.

  1. Social Media

I’m present in social media to communicate with my customers, interested parties and users registered there and to be able to inform them about my offers there. I would like to point out that you use these platforms and their functions on your own responsibility. This applies in particular to the use of the interactive functions (e.g., commenting, sharing, rating). The processing of users’ personal data is based on my legitimate interests in providing users with effective information and communicating with users. 

  1. Accuracy and updating your information

It is important that the data I hold about you is accurate and current, therefore please keep me informed of any changes to your personal data. If you believe that the information, I hold about you is inaccurate or that I am no longer entitled to use it and want to request its rectification, deletion, or object to its processing, please do so by contacting me. 

For your protection and the protection of all of users, I may ask you to provide proof of identity before I can answer your requests. Also please keep in mind, that I may reject requests for certain reasons, including if the request is unlawful or if it may infringe on trade secrets or intellectual property or the privacy of another user. Lastly, I may not be able to accommodate certain requests to object to the processing of personal data, notably where such requests would not allow me to provide my service to you anymore.

  1. Data Breaches/Notification

Databases or data sets that include personal data may be breached inadvertently or through wrongful intrusion. Upon becoming aware of a data breach, I will notify all affected individuals whose personal data may have been compromised, and the notice will be accompanied by a description of action being taken to reconcile any damage as a result of the data breach. Notices will be provided as expeditiously as possible after which the breach was discovered.

  1. Personal data and children 

I will not knowingly collect, use, or disclose personal data from minors under the age of 18 without first obtaining consent from a legal guardian through direct offline contact. 

  1. Advertising and Marketing

Insofar as you have also given me your consent to process your data for marketing and advertising purposes, we are entitled to contact you for these purposes via the communication channels you have given your consent to.

You may give us your consent in a number of ways including by selecting a box on a form where we seek your permission to send you marketing information, or sometimes your consent is implied from your interactions or contractual relationship with us. Where your consent is implied, it is on the basis that you would have a reasonable expectation of receiving a marketing communication based on your interactions or contractual relationship with me.

Direct Marketing generally takes the form of e-mail but may also include other less traditional or emerging channels. These forms of contact will be managed by my, or by my contracted service providers. Every directly addressed marketing sent or made by me or on our behalf will include a means by which you may unsubscribe or opt out. 

Changes 

I reserve the right to adapt this privacy policy with effect for the future, in particular in the event of further development of the website, the use of new technologies or changes to the legal basis or the relevant case law.
