As an individual seller, I am personally responsible for how your data is handled, and support@landedcareerguide.com is the direct and quickest way to reach me about any privacy matter, including exercising any of the rights described in Section 9.

This Policy applies to personal data we process about visitors to our website, customers who purchase our digital products, and subscribers to our email communications. It does not apply to the practices of third-party websites we link to, or to third-party services once your data has left our systems and become subject to that third party’s own privacy policy (see Section 5).

We do not knowingly collect any special category data (such as health, religious belief, or racial or ethnic origin) and ask that you do not include such information in any message you send us.

We only process your personal data where we have a valid legal basis to do so under Article 6 GDPR. The table below sets out each purpose and the legal basis we rely on.

• To process and deliver your order (create your account with our payment processor, deliver your digital download, send order confirmation) — legal basis: performance of a contract
• To process payment via Gumroad — legal basis: performance of a contract
• To respond to support and refund requests — legal basis: performance of a contract / legitimate interest in resolving customer queries
• To send you marketing or newsletter emails (only if you opt in) — legal basis: consent, which you may withdraw at any time via the unsubscribe link in any email
• To measure website traffic and improve our website via Google Analytics — legal basis: consent (cookie banner)
• To run and measure advertising campaigns via the Meta Pixel — legal basis: consent (cookie banner)
• To keep financial and accounting records — legal basis: legal obligation under Latvian accounting and tax law
• To detect and prevent fraud and to keep our website secure — legal basis: legitimate interest

We do not sell your personal data to any third party, and we do not use your data for any automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects on you.

We share personal data only with service providers (“processors”) who help us operate our business, and only to the extent necessary for them to perform their function. We do not permit these providers to use your data for their own purposes. The processors we currently use are:

• Gumroad, Inc. — payment processing. Gumroad acts as Merchant of Record for our transactions, meaning it processes your payment, billing and order data directly as part of completing your purchase and issuing your receipt.
• Base44 — our website hosting and application platform, which processes technical and usage data as part of serving our website to you.
• Proton AG (Proton Mail) — our email provider, used to send and receive customer support and order-related correspondence.
• Google Ireland Limited (Google Analytics) — website analytics, used only after you consent via our cookie banner.
• Meta Platforms Ireland Limited (Meta Pixel) — advertising measurement and retargeting, used only after you consent via our cookie banner.

We may also disclose your data where required to do so by law, for example in response to a valid request from a public authority, or to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

Some of the service providers listed in Section 5 may process personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA), in particular Google and Meta, which are based in the United States. Where this occurs, we rely on the provider’s certification under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and/or the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses as the legal mechanism ensuring your data continues to receive a level of protection equivalent to that guaranteed within the EEA. You may request more detail about the safeguards in place by contacting us at support@landedcareerguide.com.

A cookie is a small piece of data placed on your device by your browser. We use the following categories of cookies and similar technologies:

Strictly necessary cookies are placed automatically as they are essential for the website to function and cannot be switched off. Analytics and advertising cookies are only placed after you actively consent via the cookie banner shown on your first visit. You may withdraw or change your consent at any time via the “Cookie preferences” link in the website footer, which reopens the cookie banner. You can also configure your browser to block cookies generally, though this may affect the functionality of our website.

• Order and financial records — retained for the period required by Latvian accounting and tax legislation, generally up to 5 years from the end of the relevant financial year.
• Customer support correspondence — retained for as long as necessary to resolve your query and for a reasonable period afterward in case of a follow-up, typically no longer than 2 years.
• Marketing / newsletter data — retained until you unsubscribe or otherwise withdraw your consent.
• Analytics data — retained by Google Analytics for up to 14 months from collection, in line with our configured retention settings.
• Advertising / Pixel data — retained by Meta for up to 90 days for retargeting purposes, in line with Meta’s standard retention settings.

Where we no longer need your personal data, we securely delete or anonymise it.

We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data, including transmitting data over encrypted (HTTPS/SSL) connections and relying on reputable service providers who maintain their own security standards. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. If you have reason to believe your interaction with us is no longer secure, please contact us immediately at support@landedcareerguide.com.

As a data subject under the GDPR, you have the right to:

• Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
• Rectification — request that we correct any inaccurate or incomplete data.
• Erasure — request that we delete your personal data, where there is no legal reason for us to continue processing it.
• Restriction — request that we limit how we use your data in certain circumstances.
• Portability — request a copy of your data in a structured, machine-readable format, or that we transmit it to another controller.
• Objection — object to our processing of your data based on legitimate interest, including for direct marketing purposes.
• Withdraw consent — withdraw any consent you have given (for example, for analytics or advertising cookies, or marketing emails) at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.

To exercise any of these rights, email support@landedcareerguide.com. We will respond within one month, as required by the GDPR. There is no charge for exercising these rights, unless your request is manifestly unfounded or excessive.

Right to Complain to a Supervisory Authority

If you believe we have not handled your personal data in accordance with the law, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. In Latvia, this is:

If you are resident in another EU member state, you may instead lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority in your own country of residence.

Our website and products are intended for working professionals and are not directed at, nor knowingly used to collect personal data from, children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us at support@landedcareerguide.com and we will take steps to delete it.

We do not use your personal data for any form of automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, our service providers, or applicable law. Where a change is material, we will update the “last updated” date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify you by email. We encourage you to review this page periodically.

It is provided as a template and does not constitute legal advice. We recommend having it reviewed by a qualified lawyer licensed in Latvia before relying on it, and updating the third-party processor list (Section 5) if your payment provider or other service providers change.
