This privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) describes the privacy practices of Dan DeFigio and the Beating Sugar Addiction web site (referred to hereafter as “we”, “us”, or “Dan”) with respect to how any of your information is collected, used, stored, and disclosed in connection with your use of the website BeatingSugarAddiction.com (the “Site”), and/or our email management software.

GDPR Compliance Summary

It is our intention to fully comply with all General Data Protection Regulations, a privacy law from the European Union. Here is a summary of what information might be collected, and how it’s used:

  1. The only personal information collected is that which you share directly, typically by entering your name and email on a form in order to receive something. And if you send Dan an email, he will obviously have your email address, and probably your name too. YOUR DATA IS NEVER SHARED, SOLD, OR TRADED. Your name and email are only used for communications from Dan (or possibly his administrative assistant).
  2. If you don’t want to get any more emails from Dan, you can unsubscribe any time by clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of any email.
  3. If you purchase something from Dan or from the BeatingSugarAddiction.com website, your purchase information may be stored by a third-party (typically PayPal). NONE OF YOUR PURCHASE DATA IS STORED BY BEATINGSUGARADDICTION.COM.
  4. Dan’s email lists are maintained by a company called Aweber. AWeber Systems, Inc. participates in and has certified its compliance with the EU – U.S. Privacy Shield Framework and the Swiss – U.S. Privacy Shield Framework. AWeber Systems, Inc. is committed to subjecting all personal data received from European Union (EU) member countries and Switzerland, in reliance on the Privacy Shield Framework, to the Framework’s applicable Principles.

The only web tracking that is done by BeatingSugarAddiction.com:

  1. If you use facebook, you may have seen or clicked on a facebook ad from Dan DeFigio/BeatingSugarAddiction.com. Some web pages and some facebook ads have tracking codes embedded in them, which will keep track of BeatingSugarAddiction.com web activity, such as what pages on this site were looked at, or whether or not you’ve seen a particular facebook ad. This information is stored by Facebook, not by BeatingSugarAddiction.com.
  2. Google Analytics. This is a google tool that shows a web site owner the statistics of each page of a web site. It shows how many visitors look at each page, when they visited it, and what country those visitors come from. It also shows the IP address of their device, what their operating system is (Windows, Macintosh, etc), what web browser was used (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, etc), and whether you’re using a desktop or mobile device. NONE OF THIS INFORMATION IS SPECIFIC TO YOU, AND YOU ARE NOT IDENTIFIED OR TRACKED AS AN INDIVIDUAL. You can opt-out of your activity on the Site being available to Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. The add-on prevents the Google Analytics JavaScript (ga.js, analytics.js, and dc.js) from sharing information with Google Analytics about visits activity. For more information on the privacy practices of Google, please visit the Google Privacy & Terms web page: http://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/
