Privacy Policy

Embracing Femininity ("we," "us," or "our") operates the website at embracing-femininity.vercel.app and the Embracing Femininitymobile application (collectively, the "Services"). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

By using our Services, you agree to this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the Services.

Information you provide.When you contact us through our website form, you may submit your name, email address, and message. Counseling and shop inquiries initiated via WhatsApp are handled directly in WhatsApp and are subject to WhatsApp's own privacy practices.

Course access codes. When you enter a course access code, we validate it against our servers. Valid codes may be associated with usage counts on our backend for administration and fraud prevention. We do not require user accounts to access courses.

Information stored on your device (mobile app). The mobile app stores certain data locally on your phone using on-device storage (Hive), including:

• Shopping bag / cart items
• Saved or bookmarked products and articles
• Unlocked course identifiers and access codes you have entered
• Lesson completion progress
• Cached catalog content (products, courses, blog posts, FAQs, and similar public content)

This on-device data is not uploaded to create a user profile unless you separately share it with us (for example, via WhatsApp or email).

Automatically collected information. Our hosting provider (Vercel) and standard web technologies may process technical data such as IP address, browser or device type, and request logs for security and performance. The mobile app fetches public content from our API over HTTPS.

• Provide, maintain, and improve the website and mobile app
• Respond to contact and support requests
• Validate course access codes and deliver purchased learning content
• Enable shop checkout flows via WhatsApp
• Protect against misuse, abuse, or technical issues
• Comply with applicable law

We do not sell your personal information.

Our Services may link to or embed third-party services, including:

• WhatsApp — for orders, counseling bookings, and customer support
• YouTube — for embedded course video playback in the mobile app and website
• Vercel — website and API hosting
• External download links — for free digital resources you choose to open

These services are governed by their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review them when you leave our Services or interact with embedded content.

Contact form submissions may be stored on our servers for as long as needed to respond and maintain records. Course access code usage may be retained for administration. Mobile app data on your device remains until you clear app storage, uninstall the app, or use in-app options to reset local data where available.

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure. Counseling conversations are treated as confidential trusts (Amanah), as described on our Services pages.

Our Services include educational and family-oriented content. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without parental consent. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.

Where applicable, we process personal data on the following bases:

• Contract / service delivery — to provide courses, shop inquiries, and support you request
• Legitimate interests — to secure our Services, prevent fraud, and improve functionality
• Consent — for contact form submissions, optional cookies, and where required by law
• Legal obligation — when we must retain or disclose information to comply with law

If you are in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or a region with similar laws, you may have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, or object to certain processing, and to data portability where applicable. You may also withdraw consent at any time (without affecting prior lawful processing) and lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

California residents have the right to know, delete, and correct personal information, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. We do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. See our Do Not Sell or Share page.

We do not discriminate against you for exercising privacy rights.

We use essential cookies and local storage as described in our Cookie Policy. Optional analytics or marketing technologies are disabled unless you consent.

• Decline non-essential cookies via the site banner
• Clear browser or app storage at any time
• Submit a privacy rights request using the form below
• Email us to withdraw consent or object to processing where applicable

We may process information in countries where we or our service providers operate (including the United States). Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses or comparable mechanisms.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect the latest version. Continued use of the Services after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
