Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Mixing It With Brains ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit our website, sign up for our newsletter, or purchase our digital products. By using the site, you agree to the practices described here.

Information we collect

We collect only the information we need to run the site and serve you:

• Contact and account details. Your email address, and any name or message you provide when you sign up for the newsletter, fill out the contact form, or sign in to look up your orders.
• Order details. Records of the digital products you purchase or download, so we can deliver them and provide support.
• Payment information. Payments are processed by Stripe. We do not see or store your full card number. Stripe handles card data under its own privacy and security practices.
• Usage data. Basic, privacy-respecting analytics about how the site is used, such as pages viewed, to help us improve it.

How we use your information

• To deliver the digital products you buy or request.
• To send the newsletter and resources you ask for. You can unsubscribe at any time.
• To respond to your questions and provide support.
• To operate, maintain, and improve the website.
• To meet legal, tax, and accounting obligations.

Service providers

We share information only with the providers that help us run the business, and only as needed for them to perform their service:

• Stripe processes payments.
• Formspree handles submissions from our contact and signup forms.
• Our hosting and email providers store and deliver site content and messages.

We do not sell your personal information.

Cookies and local storage

The site uses your browser's local storage to remember your cart and your lightweight sign-in so your dashboard works. We may use minimal, privacy-respecting analytics. We do not use invasive third-party advertising trackers.

Data retention

We keep your information for as long as needed to provide our products and services and to meet our legal obligations. You can ask us to delete your information at any time, subject to records we are required to keep.

Your choices and rights

You can unsubscribe from emails using the link in any message, and you can ask us to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you. To make a request, email us atlauren@bodnar.sh.

Children's privacy

Our products are purchased by parents and educators. The site is intended for adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. Continued use of the site after changes take effect means you accept the updated policy.
