Who we share data with

We share personal data with service providers who help us run the business:

  • Payment processing: Stripe
  • Funnels, checkout, email, and product delivery: systeme.io
  • Analytics and advertising: Meta, Google Analytics, Google Search Console, Google Ads
  • AI processing for tools and features you use: the AI providers named in our Terms and Conditions
  • Professional advisers such as accountants and lawyers, where needed

These providers act either as processors under our instructions or as independent controllers under their own terms. Where they act as processors, we require them to protect your data and to use it only to provide services to us.

We may also share data to comply with law, legal process, or a government request, to enforce our terms or protect our rights, and as part of a business transfer such as a merger or acquisition, with appropriate protections in place.

We do not sell your personal information for money. Some of our advertising and analytics activity may count as a sale or sharing under California law. See section 15.

08

Data you put into our AI tools

Some of our products let you enter text, business details, or client information into an AI powered tool, or help you build your own AI tool.

  • Content you enter into a tool is sent to a third party AI provider to generate a response.
  • Where a tool you build runs on your own AI account or API key, that content goes directly to your provider and we do not receive it.
  • We do not use content you enter into our tools to train our own models.
  • AI providers may retain input and output for a limited period for abuse monitoring under their own terms.

Do not enter confidential information, health data, financial account details, or anything you are not authorised to share into any AI tool, ours or otherwise.

09

Data your own customers give you

If you use our templates or tool builders to create something that collects data from your own audience, you are the controller of that data, not us. You are responsible for your own privacy policy, consent notices, cookie banners, and lawful basis for processing.

We do not receive data collected through tools you build and host yourself, unless you send it to us.

10

International transfers

We are based in the United States and use providers located in the United States and other countries. If you are in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, your data may be transferred outside your country to a place with different data protection laws.

Where required, we rely on lawful transfer mechanisms such as the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission and the UK International Data Transfer Addendum, or other safeguards recognised by law. You can ask us for details of the safeguards that apply.

11

How long we keep data

Data Retention period
Purchase and tax records Seven years from the date of the transaction, to meet accounting and tax obligations
Product access and account data For as long as you hold access, then up to twelve months after it ends
Email marketing data Until you unsubscribe or ask for deletion, then suppression list only
Support emails Up to three years from the last message
Analytics and advertising data As set by each platform, typically two to twenty six months

After these periods we delete or anonymise the data where possible. We keep a minimal suppression record of unsubscribed emails so we do not contact you again.

12

Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational safeguards to protect personal data, including access controls, encrypted connections, and vetted providers. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

If a data breach affects your personal data and creates a high risk to your rights, we will notify you and the relevant supervisory authority where the law requires it.

13

Automated decisions and profiling

We do not make decisions producing legal or similarly significant effects about you using automated processing alone. We do use automated segmentation to decide which marketing emails or ads you see, based on things like what you bought or which pages you viewed. You can object to this by contacting us or unsubscribing.

14

Your rights under GDPR and UK GDPR

If you are in the EEA, UK, Switzerland, or a region with similar law, you may have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Correct data that is inaccurate or incomplete
  • Ask us to delete your data, subject to legal exceptions
  • Restrict or object to certain processing, including direct marketing
  • Receive a copy of your data in a structured, commonly used, machine readable format
  • Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
  • Complain to the supervisory authority in your country

To exercise these rights, email hello@riannahijlkema.com with the subject line Data Rights Request and tell us your country of residence. We may need to verify your identity. We aim to respond within one month and will tell you if we need longer.

We do not charge for handling a request unless it is manifestly unfounded or excessive.

15

Your rights in California

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the CPRA gives you the right to:

  • Know the categories of personal information we collect, use, disclose, sell, or share
  • Access the specific pieces of personal information we hold about you
  • Request deletion of your personal information, subject to legal exceptions
  • Request correction of inaccurate personal information
  • Opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information for cross context behavioural advertising
  • Limit the use of sensitive personal information, though we do not collect it
  • Not be discriminated against for exercising your rights

Categories we collect

  • Identifiers such as name, email, and IP address
  • Commercial information such as products bought and transaction details
  • Internet or other electronic network activity such as usage data, device information, and interactions with our site and ads
  • Inferences drawn from the above for advertising and analytics

Sale and sharing

We do not sell personal information for money. We may share identifiers and internet activity with advertising and analytics partners including Meta and Google so they can show you relevant ads. Under California law this may count as a sale or sharing.

To opt out, email hello@riannahijlkema.com with the subject line California Privacy Request, Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information. You can also use the cookie controls in your browser and the ad settings on Meta and Google. An authorised agent may submit a request on your behalf with written proof of authorisation.

16

Other US state privacy rights

Residents of states including Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Texas, Oregon, and Montana have rights to access, correct, delete, and obtain a copy of their personal data, and to opt out of targeted advertising and sale of personal data. Use the same contact route and subject line Data Rights Request. Where your state offers an appeal process and we decline your request, we will tell you how to appeal.

17

Children

Our site and products are aimed at business owners and are not directed to children under 16. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a child has given us personal data, contact us and we will delete it.

18

Do Not Track and global privacy signals

Browsers vary in how they send Do Not Track signals and there is no common standard, so our site does not respond to them. Where required by law, we honour the Global Privacy Control signal as a request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information.

19

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The Last updated date at the top will change. Where changes are material we will notify you on this page or by email. Continuing to use our site and products after an update means you accept the revised policy.
