Privacy Policy for AlphaBites
This Privacy Policy explains how AlphaBites (“we” or “us”) collects, uses, and handles your information when you visit our website, www.alphabites.com (“the Site”). It describes the types of information we gather and how we use it. Please note this policy applies only to information collected online, not through other means like phone, mail, or events.
Agreement and Changes to the Privacy Policy
By using the Site, you agree to this Privacy Policy. As things change online, we may update this policy. If we do, changes will be posted here with a new “Effective Date.” Your continued use of the Site means you accept any updates.
Information We Collect and Use
We may collect personal information you provide, such as during registration, making purchases, or subscribing to content. This information can include your name, email, mailing address, and payment details, all provided voluntarily.
We also collect data automatically as you browse, like your device’s internet connection, which helps us improve the Site and understand traffic. We use cookies (small files stored on your device) and web beacons (like “transparent GIFs”) to track activity, deliver targeted ads, and remember your preferences. Collected data helps us tailor content, send offers, and target ads. We may also share your information with trusted third-party providers or advertisers. If you’d prefer us not to use your information this way, contact our Privacy Coordinator using the information at the end of this policy.
Be cautious about sharing personal information on public forums, message boards, or chat areas on the Site, as others can access it.
Third-Party Ads and Links
Our Site may include ads from third-party advertisers who might use cookies or web beacons to collect information about your browsing habits. These advertisers have their own privacy policies, and we recommend reviewing them if you have any concerns.
Links on our Site may take you to external websites, where their privacy policies control how they handle your information. We aren’t responsible for the privacy practices or content on these sites.
Working with Third-Party Partners
Some content or services on the Site may be offered through partnerships with third parties, and we may share the information you provide or that we collect with these partners. If you have questions about a partner’s privacy policy, please reach out to them directly.
Legal Compliance and Business Transfers
We may share your information if required by law or to protect the safety of our users or the public. If our business merges or is sold, your information may be part of the assets transferred.
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics tools to improve our services. These tools help us understand user behavior and may use cookies to track your actions on the Site, helping us optimize advertising and reconnect if you leave the checkout process incomplete.
You can adjust your cookie preferences in Google’s ad settings or opt out through the Network Advertising Initiative’s opt-out page.
Facebook Integration
As a Facebook advertiser, we may collect data from Facebook users in line with this Privacy Policy. We follow Facebook’s Data Use Restrictions, meaning any data collected is only used by us and is kept confidential.
GDPR Compliance
The GDPR, effective in May 2018, protects EU residents’ data. While we don’t specifically target EU users, we respect GDPR if you’re an EU resident, and you can request access, correction, deletion, or restriction of your data. Contact us at support@getalphabites.com to exercise these rights.
California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)
The CCPA, effective January 2020, protects personal data for California residents. While we don’t currently meet the CCPA compliance thresholds, we’ll follow its requirements if they apply in the future.
California residents can request to know, delete, or opt out of data sharing. Contact us at support@getalphabites.com for these requests.
Children’s Privacy
We protect the privacy of children under 13 and don’t knowingly collect their information. If we find we’ve inadvertently collected information from a child, we’ll delete it promptly.
Data Storage and Unsubscribe Policy
Your data is stored on secure servers to deliver Site content and communications, accessed only by authorized staff. Each email includes an unsubscribe link for you to opt out at any time.
Disclaimer
We may update this Privacy Policy at any time. Any changes will be posted here.
