HerBetterDays (“we,” “us,” “our”) publishes lifestyle and wellness education content at herbetterdays.com (the “Service”). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

We do not require you to give us health information to read our content, and we do not ask you to disclose medical conditions or diagnoses anywhere on the Service. If you choose to include personal health details in an email to us, we’ll treat that information as confidential and use it only to respond to you.

1. Information we collect

Information you give us directly:

  • Newsletter signup — name (optional) and email address.
  • Purchases — when you buy a digital guide, checkout is handled by our third-party payment processor, [PAYMENT PROCESSOR]. We receive your order confirmation, email address, and purchase details, but we do not receive or store your full card number.
  • Contact form / email — anything you include when you contact us directly.
  • Comments or community submissions (if and when we offer them) — anything you submit for publication.

Information collected automatically:

  • Standard technical data (IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, referring site) via server logs and analytics tools.
  • Cookies and similar technologies — see Cookies below.

We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal information (such as health, financial account, or government ID data) through the Service itself.

2. How we use your information

We use the information above to:

  • Send the newsletter you signed up for, and let you know about new content or products.
  • Deliver a digital product you purchased and provide customer support (including refunds).
  • Understand how people use the Service, so we can improve our content and site.
  • Detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, or security issues.
  • Comply with legal obligations.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use your data to build a profile for third-party advertising targeting outside the tools disclosed in this policy.

3. Who we share information with

We share information only with:

  • Service providers who help us run the Service — our email service provider ([EMAIL SERVICE PROVIDER]), payment processor ([PAYMENT PROCESSOR]), analytics provider ([ANALYTICS PROVIDER]), and hosting provider. Each only receives what it needs to perform its function, and each is bound by its own privacy terms.
  • Legal or safety reasons — if required by law, subpoena, or to protect the rights, safety, or property of HerBetterDays, our readers, or the public.
  • A business transfer — if HerBetterDays is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may transfer as part of that transaction; we’ll notify you if this happens.

We do not share your information with third parties for their own independent marketing purposes.

4. Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies to keep the Service running, remember your preferences, and understand site usage through analytics. You can control cookies through your browser settings; blocking some cookies may affect how parts of the Service work. Where required by law, we’ll ask for your consent to non-essential cookies via a cookie banner.

5. Your rights and choices

  • Newsletter — every email includes an unsubscribe link. You can also email us to opt out.
  • Access, correction, deletion — you can ask us what personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it, by emailing privacy@herbetterdays.com. We’ll respond within a reasonable time and verify your identity before acting on the request.
  • California residents (CCPA/CPRA) — you have the right to know what personal information we collect, request deletion, and opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information. We do not sell personal information. To exercise these rights, email privacy@herbetterdays.com.
  • EU/UK/EEA residents (GDPR) — if applicable to you, you have rights to access, rectify, erase, restrict, or port your data, and to object to certain processing. Email privacy@herbetterdays.com to make a request. [Legal entity name and EU/UK representative, if required, to be added before this policy is published for EU/UK readers.]

We won’t discriminate against you for exercising any privacy right.

6. Data retention

We keep personal information for as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy — for example, for as long as you’re subscribed to the newsletter, or as needed to comply with tax and accounting obligations for a purchase. When it’s no longer needed, we delete or anonymize it.

7. Data security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we can’t guarantee absolute security.

8. International visitors

HerBetterDays is based in and primarily serves readers in the United States. If you access the Service from outside the U.S., your information may be transferred to and processed in the U.S., where data protection laws may differ from those in your country.

9. Children’s privacy

The Service is intended for adults and is not directed at children under 13 (or under 16 where applicable local law sets a higher age). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has given us personal information, contact us and we’ll delete it.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We’ll update the “Last updated” date above when we do, and for material changes, we’ll provide additional notice (such as a newsletter email).
