Privacy Policy
Effective Date: August 4, 2026
Helping Boldly respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected when you visit our store, purchase a digital product, join our email list, or contact us, as well as how that information may be used and protected.
INFORMATION WE MAY COLLECT
We may receive information that you voluntarily provide, including:
• Your name and email address
• Billing and transaction information
• Products purchased and order history
• Messages or questions submitted through our Contact page
• Email-marketing preferences
• Information you provide when requesting customer support
Payhip, Stripe, and other service providers may also automatically collect technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device information, referring website, approximate location, and activity involving the store.
PAYMENT INFORMATION
Payments are processed through third-party payment processors, including Stripe, through the Payhip platform. Helping Boldly does not directly receive or store your complete debit-card, credit-card, or bank-account numbers. Payment processors handle that information according to their own privacy and security policies.
HOW WE USE INFORMATION
We may use personal information to:
• Process purchases and deliver digital products
• Send order confirmations, receipts, and download information
• Respond to customer questions or support requests
• Maintain transaction and business records
• Prevent fraud, misuse, or security threats
• Improve our products, store, and customer experience
• Send marketing emails when you have chosen to join our email list
• Comply with applicable legal, tax, accounting, and regulatory obligations
EMAIL COMMUNICATIONS
If you join our email list, we may send business tips, product announcements, promotions, and other Helping Boldly updates. You may unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in an email. Unsubscribing from marketing messages does not prevent us from sending necessary transactional communications about a purchase or customer-service request.
HOW INFORMATION MAY BE SHARED
We do not sell or rent personal information.
Information may be shared only when reasonably necessary with service providers that help us operate the store, process payments, deliver files, send email communications, maintain records, prevent fraud, or provide technical support. These providers may include Payhip, Stripe, email-service providers, analytics providers, and other business-service providers.
We may also disclose information when required by law, legal process, court order, or government request, or when reasonably necessary to protect the rights, safety, security, or property of Helping Boldly, our customers, or others.
COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES
Payhip and connected service providers may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the store, remember preferences, understand website activity, support checkout, prevent fraud, and improve performance. You may control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect how some store features operate.
DATA RETENTION
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide products and support, maintain business and transaction records, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and meet legal, accounting, or tax obligations. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the reason it was collected.
DATA SECURITY
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards appropriate for the information we handle. Payments and digital-product delivery are managed through established third-party platforms. However, no method of electronic storage or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
YOUR PRIVACY CHOICES AND RIGHTS
Depending on where you live, you may have rights concerning your personal information, which may include the right to:
• Request access to certain personal information
• Request correction of inaccurate information
• Request deletion of eligible information
• Object to or restrict certain uses of information
• Withdraw consent for marketing communications
• Request information about how personal information is used or shared
Some information may need to be retained when required for legal, tax, accounting, fraud-prevention, or transaction-record purposes.
To make a privacy request, contact Helping Boldly through the Contact page. We may need to verify your identity before completing certain requests.
CHILDREN’S PRIVACY
Helping Boldly’s store and products are intended for adults and are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us so the information can be reviewed and, when appropriate, deleted.
THIRD-PARTY SERVICES AND LINKS
Our store may contain links to or use services operated by third parties, including Payhip and Stripe. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies. Helping Boldly is not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of third-party websites or services.
INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS
Information may be processed or stored in the United States or other countries where Payhip, Stripe, or other service providers operate. Privacy and data-protection laws may differ between countries.
CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
We may update this Privacy Policy when our practices, services, or legal obligations change. The updated policy will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. Continued use of the store after an update means the current policy will apply to future interactions.
