What we keep, and why.

Protecting your information is a priority at Darice Strategies. We collect only what we need to do the work you’ve asked for, use it for the purposes explained here, and never sell it. This page explains what we collect, how it is handled, and the choices you have.

What we collect

Depending on what you do on this site, we may collect:

• Your name, email address, and business name — when you buy something, book a call, or send us a message through the contact form.
• Your questionnaire answers — when you complete the questionnaire using the private link emailed after a purchase. This is the material we build your work from, so it can include details about your business, your career, and your goals.
• Payment details — handled by our payment processor. We do not receive or store your full card details. We receive a record that you paid, what you bought, and the name and email you gave at checkout.

We don’t ask for anything we won’t use.

Why we collect it

• To deliver what you bought, and to build it around your answers.
• To reply when you write to us, and to schedule a call when you book one.
• To keep a record of purchases, refunds, and credits, so we can honour them.
• To keep the site and its checkout running safely.

We don’t use your information for anything else. We won’t add you to a mailing list because you bought something or sent a message.

Where it’s stored

Questionnaire answers and purchase records are stored on Darice Strategies’ infrastructure hosted by our cloud infrastructure provider in the United States. Contact-form messages and questionnaire answers are also sent to us through our email delivery provider. Our payment processor handles payment records; our scheduling provider handles booking details.

If you’re outside the United States, your information is transferred here to be processed. By using the site, you’re agreeing to that.

Who sees it

We use your information to prepare your work, respond to your requests, and manage your engagement. The service providers below also process information needed to support those activities.

These services process information on our behalf:

• Payment processing providers — processing payments and maintaining payment records.
• Scheduling providers — arranging calls and handling booking details.
• Cloud infrastructure providers — hosting the site, processing form submissions, and storing questionnaire answers and purchase records.
• Our email delivery provider — delivering private questionnaire links and confirmations to buyers, and contact-form messages and questionnaire answers to us. This includes the email addresses and message content needed for delivery.

Each of them handles your information under its own privacy terms. None of them are given your information for their own marketing.

Beyond that, we’d only disclose your information if the law required us to.

How long we keep it

We retain questionnaire answers and engagement records to deliver your work, support follow-up questions, and honour any applicable credit. These records do not currently expire automatically when an engagement ends. You can request deletion through the contact form below.

Purchase records are retained for accounting and legal obligations. Copies of correspondence may also remain in our email systems after a conversation ends.

You can ask us to delete your information at any time by writing through the contact form. We’ll review your request and confirm what has been deleted or explain any information we must retain to meet legal obligations.

We don’t sell your data

We have never sold, rented, or traded anyone’s information, and we won’t. Your questionnaire answers are used to build your work and for nothing else.

Cookies and analytics

This site uses no advertising cookies and no tracking pixels. The only cookies or browser storage used are essential ones — for example, so a checkout you’ve started can pick up where you left off.

We use our own analytics, built and run by us on our own servers — not a third-party service. It is cookieless. It does not set analytics cookies or use browser storage to assign a persistent visitor identifier.

Our analytics records page views, referring sites, and clicks on links such as sample reports or booking pages. To estimate daily visitors, it processes an IP address and browser information into a short-lived identifier using a secret that changes each day. The analytics table stores that identifier, not the raw IP address. These identifiers are not used to track visitors across days. They are scheduled for automatic deletion, although deletion may not be immediate.

We do not sell this analytics information or send it to advertising networks. It is processed within the cloud infrastructure we use to operate the site.

Children

This site and its services are for adults and businesses. They aren’t directed at anyone under 18, and we don’t knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe we have, tell us through the contact form and we’ll delete it.

Your choices

• You can ask what information we hold about you.
• You can ask us to correct it.
• You can ask us to delete it.

For any of these, use the contact form. We’ll reply promptly and act on the request.

Changes to this policy

If we change how we handle your information, the new version goes up on this page with a new effective date. We won’t apply a change retroactively to information you’ve already given us without telling you.

Effective 21 September 2026
