Privacy Policy

Effective date: · CalmGate Floristry Courses

Data we collect

We collect information to provide floristry course access, support, and website functionality. Depending on how you use the site, we may collect:

  • Account and contact details such as your name, email address, and any details you choose to include in support messages.
  • Course usage data such as lesson completion, timestamps, and basic interaction events (for example, saving progress).
  • Device and technical data such as browser type, approximate location (derived from IP), pages visited, referrer, and diagnostics to maintain performance and security.
  • Communications including messages you send to us and our replies.
  • Payment data is processed by secure third-party payment providers. We do not store full card numbers. If a payment provider provides us with limited information (for example, billing country, payment status, or last four digits), we use it for billing support and fraud prevention.

We do not knowingly collect sensitive categories of personal data unless you explicitly provide it to us (for example, in a support request). Please avoid including sensitive personal details when contacting support.

How we use data

We use your information for the following purposes:

  • Provide and operate the service (account access, course delivery, progress tracking, and customer support).
  • Improve and personalize learning experience (e.g., recommending next lessons or improving course navigation).
  • Communicate about service-related messages such as policy updates, security notices, and important operational changes.
  • Analytics to understand how the site is used, measure performance, and fix issues (only when enabled by your cookie preferences where required).
  • Security and fraud prevention including protecting accounts, enforcing policies, and complying with legal obligations.

We do not sell your personal data. We do not use your personal data for targeted advertising based on cross-site tracking.

Sharing & disclosures

We share personal data only as needed to run CalmGate and comply with law:

  • Service providers such as hosting, analytics, payment processing, and customer support tools. They may access data only to perform services for us and must protect it.
  • Legal and safety when required to comply with applicable law, enforce our terms, respond to lawful requests, or protect users, our business, or the public.
  • Business transfers if we are involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. We will provide notice where required.

If you would like a high-level list of categories of service providers we typically use (without disclosing security-sensitive details), contact us and we’ll respond within a reasonable timeframe.

Retention & security

We retain personal data for as long as necessary to provide the service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Retention periods depend on data type and purpose (for example, billing records may be retained longer than support chat logs).

We implement technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal data from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we continuously work to protect the platform.

Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding your personal data, including:

  • Access to the personal data we hold about you.
  • Correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Deletion of data, subject to legal exceptions.
  • Portability (export) of certain data.
  • Restriction or objection to certain processing.
  • Opting out of non-essential communications.
