Privacy Policy

Last updated: Applies to EduShine Digital Store

This is a starting template, not legal advice

Every highlighted PLACEHOLDER must be replaced, and every section must be checked against what your website and payment provider actually do. Privacy law differs by country — the UK/EU (UK GDPR and GDPR), California (CCPA/CPRA), Canada, Australia, India and others each impose different duties. Have a qualified professional review this before you publish it.

Delete this box when you are done. It is one <aside> block in the HTML.

1. Who we are

This website is operated by YOUR LEGAL BUSINESS NAME (“we”, “us”, “our”), trading as EduShine Digital Store, of YOUR REGISTERED BUSINESS ADDRESS.

We are the data controller for the personal information described in this policy. If you have any question about it, contact us at YOUR_SUPPORT_EMAIL.

If you are a sole trader without a registered company: use your own name and a contact address you are willing to publish. In several countries a trader selling to consumers is legally required to give a real postal address, not only an email address.

2. What information we collect

We collect only what is needed to sell and deliver digital products.

InformationWhen we get itWhy
Name and email address When you buy a product, or subscribe to our email list To deliver your purchase, send your receipt and answer support requests
Order details (product, price, order reference, date) When you complete a purchase To keep a record of the sale and handle refunds or re-downloads
Correspondence you send us When you email support To reply to you and keep a record of the issue
Technical and usage data (IP address, browser type, pages viewed) Automatically, if analytics are enabled To understand how the site is used and fix problems

Payment information

We never see or store your card details. Payments are processed by Razorpay, who collects your payment information directly on their own systems. We receive only confirmation that a payment succeeded, along with your name, email address and the order reference. Their handling of your data is governed by their own privacy policy.

Information we do not collect

  • We do not ask for or store passwords — this site has no customer accounts.
  • We do not collect payment card numbers, bank details or identity documents.
  • We do not knowingly collect information from children (see section 9).

Check this list against reality. Delete any row you do not actually collect, and add anything you do. A privacy policy that overstates what you collect is as much of a problem as one that understates it.

3. How we use your information

We use the information above to:

  • deliver the digital product you purchased and give you access to your download;
  • send transactional messages such as receipts, download links and order updates;
  • respond to support requests and resolve problems with a purchase;
  • process refunds where our Refund Policy applies;
  • send marketing emails, only if you asked us to (see section 5);
  • keep accounting and tax records as required by law;
  • detect and prevent fraud or misuse of our products.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing.

4. Our legal basis for using your information

If you are in the UK, the EU, or another region with equivalent law, we rely on the following legal bases:

PurposeLegal basis
Delivering a product you boughtPerformance of a contract
Sending receipts and download linksPerformance of a contract
Answering support requestsLegitimate interests (running our business and supporting customers)
Marketing emailsConsent — which you can withdraw at any time
AnalyticsCONSENT OR LEGITIMATE INTERESTS — see note below
Keeping accounting recordsLegal obligation

Analytics and cookies: in the UK and EU, non-essential cookies and similar tracking generally require consent collected through a cookie banner before the tracking script runs. This website ships with no analytics and no cookies. If you add a tracking tool, you must update section 6 and, in most cases, add a consent banner.

5. Marketing emails

We only send marketing emails to people who signed up for them. Every marketing email includes an unsubscribe link, and unsubscribing takes effect immediately. You can also email YOUR_SUPPORT_EMAIL and ask to be removed.

Unsubscribing from marketing does not stop transactional messages about a purchase you have already made, such as your receipt or download link.

Our email list is managed by YOUR EMAIL PROVIDER — e.g. Mailchimp, ConvertKit, Brevo, who store your name and email address on our behalf.

6. Cookies and tracking

CHOOSE THE PARAGRAPH BELOW THAT IS TRUE AND DELETE THE OTHER.

Option A — no tracking (as shipped)

This website does not use cookies, analytics or advertising trackers. Nothing is stored on your device and no third-party scripts run on these pages. Our payment provider may set its own cookies on its checkout pages, which are governed by its privacy policy.

Option B — you have added analytics

We use ANALYTICS PROVIDER to understand how visitors use the site — for example which pages are viewed and how people arrive. This uses cookies or similar technology and collects your IP address and browser information. DESCRIBE HOW CONSENT IS OBTAINED AND HOW IT CAN BE WITHDRAWN. You can control cookies through your browser settings at any time.

7. Who we share information with

We share personal information only with the service providers we need to run the store, and only as far as necessary:

  • Payment processing — Razorpay
  • Product delivery / file hosting — YOUR DELIVERY OR HOSTING PROVIDER
  • Email — YOUR EMAIL PROVIDER
  • Website hosting — YOUR WEB HOST
  • Analytics — ANALYTICS PROVIDER, IF ANY

We may also disclose information where we are legally required to, or to establish or defend a legal claim.

International transfers

Some of these providers may store data outside your country. Where personal information is transferred internationally, we rely on the safeguards those providers have in place, such as standard contractual clauses or an adequacy decision. CONFIRM WHAT YOUR PROVIDERS ACTUALLY USE.

8. How long we keep your information

  • Order records: for as long as required by tax and accounting law in YOUR COUNTRY — commonly between five and seven years.
  • Support emails: YOUR PERIOD — e.g. 24 months after the conversation ends.
  • Marketing list: until you unsubscribe, or until the list is cleaned of inactive addresses.

When we no longer need information, we delete it or anonymise it.

9. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

  • ask what personal information we hold about you, and get a copy of it;
  • have inaccurate information corrected;
  • ask us to delete your information, where we are not required to keep it;
  • object to, or ask us to restrict, certain uses of your information;
  • withdraw consent at any time, where we relied on consent;
  • receive your information in a portable format;
  • complain to your local data protection authority.

To exercise any of these, email YOUR_SUPPORT_EMAIL. We will respond within the time limit set by the law that applies to you — one month under UK and EU GDPR.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights: you will still get the same products at the same prices.

Children

Our products are intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under AGE — e.g. 16, OR AS REQUIRED WHERE YOU TRADE. If you believe a child has given us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

10. How we protect your information

This website is served over HTTPS, and we limit access to order and customer information to the people who need it. We rely on established providers for payment processing and hosting, each with their own security measures.

No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. If a breach occurs that is likely to affect your rights, we will notify you and the relevant authority as the law requires.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as our business or the law changes. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised. Where a change is significant, we will tell people on our email list.

12. How to contact us

Email YOUR_SUPPORT_EMAIL, or write to YOUR BUSINESS ADDRESS.

If you are in the UK you may complain to the Information Commissioner's Office; in the EU, to your national supervisory authority. We would appreciate the chance to resolve your concern first.
