Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 9, 2026
This policy explains how personal information is handled on www.emotionalspending.com.
Who is responsible
This website is operated by the operator of this website, the contact address shown on this website. For any privacy question or request, write to [email protected].
Information we collect
Contact form. When you use the contact form, we collect your name, email address, subject, and message, and we store them in our database so we can reply.
Technical logs. Like most websites, our hosting systems may record technical data such as IP address, browser type, requested page, and time of the request. We use it to keep the website secure and working. Failed administrator sign-ins may be recorded with the IP address for the same reason.
Visit statistics. To understand how the website is used, we record each page viewed and each selection of a purchase button, with the time, the page, the website or campaign that led to the visit, the country, and the type of device, browser and operating system. The country is provided by our network security provider, Cloudflare, from the IP address. We do not store IP addresses and we use no cookies for these statistics. To count visitors without identifying them, we keep a short code calculated from the IP address and browser that changes every day, so a visitor cannot be followed from one day to the next. These statistics are deleted after 13 months.
Spam protection. Our contact form uses Google reCAPTCHA to protect against spam and abuse. It loads only when you start using the form. Google then receives technical data such as your IP address and information about your browser and how you use the page, and processes it under its own Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
Audience statistics. If you accept analytics cookies, we use Google Analytics to understand how many people visit the website and which pages they view. Google then receives technical data such as your IP address, information about your browser and device, and the pages you visit, and processes it under its own Privacy Policy. Google Analytics does not load unless you accept.
Payments
Purchases are completed on Whop, an independent payment and checkout provider. Whop collects and processes the details needed for your purchase under its own privacy policy. This website does not receive or store your card details.
Cookies
We use essential cookies and, only if you accept them, analytics cookies. A session cookie and a security token keep forms and the administrator area working safely, and they expire after a limited time. When you start using the contact form, the page loads Google reCAPTCHA, which may set its own cookies. We do not use advertising cookies. Analytics cookies are set by Google Analytics. You can change your choice at any time with the Cookie settings link at the bottom of every page. We do not run a newsletter. Fonts are served from our own website rather than from a third party.
Why we use information
Where data protection laws such as the GDPR apply, we rely on these legal bases:
- Legitimate interests: answering messages, keeping the website secure, and measuring its audience without cookies.
- Contract: helping with a purchase or with access to your files.
- Legal obligation: keeping records that the law requires.
- Consent: audience statistics through Google Analytics.
Who receives information
We share information only as needed to run the website: with our hosting and network security providers, with Google for spam protection on the contact form and for audience statistics if you accept analytics cookies and, if email notifications are enabled, with our email provider. Whop handles information you give it directly. We do not sell personal information. Some providers may process data in other countries, and in that case appropriate safeguards are used where the law requires them.
How long we keep information
We keep contact messages for as long as needed to answer them and handle any follow-up, and then delete them. Technical logs are kept for a limited period for security purposes. Visit statistics are deleted after 13 months. Audience statistics are kept in Google Analytics for a limited period.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures, including encrypted connections, restricted administrator access, and protected passwords. No system is completely secure.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to the use of your personal information, to receive a copy of it, and to complain to your local data protection authority. To make a request, write to [email protected]. For information held by Whop, please also contact Whop.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when our practices change. The current version always appears on this page with its date.
