What personal data we collect and why we collect it
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
We do not believe that people should be afraid to provide honest commentary and as such, we will not use your email address from the comments form to use in a newsletter list, email list or marketing email list. Should you wish to join these lists, please use this form. We may from time to time reach out in a personal email to better understand your comment. We never sell email addresses to third parties.
Media
In most cases, users are not allowed to upload images or other media to the website. This is to prevent unintentional copyright issues and to protect our users. If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Contact forms
Contact forms are used to collect information from you to assist us in helping you out. The form may ask for your name, email address, telephone number and related personal information, which is then emailed to us. This information – especially your email address – will be retained only as long as required for us to address your needs. This may therefore necessitate you to resubmit the information more than once.
Where a subscription or other digital product is purchased, this information will be retained for the duration of the contract. Thereafter, the information will be deleted.
Should you elect to join our mailing list, then the correct option will have to be set on our forms. At such a point, your information, such as your email address, will be transferred to our mailing database. You may unsubscribe at any stage, which will also cause the system to remove your contact information.
Email addresses provided in contact forms will therefore not be used by Straight Fire Life for any other purpose than to respond to your query, unless you specifically ask to be put on a mailing list. In all cases, your information will not be sold to 3rd parties for any purpose.

If you have an account and you log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Analytics
As you use this Website, we use automatic data collection technology (Google Analytics) to collect certain information about your device, browsing actions, and patterns. This generally includes information about where you are, how you use our website, and any communications between your computer and this site. Among other things, we will collect data about the type of computer you use, your Internet connection, your IP address, your operating system, and your browser type.
We collect this data for statistical purposes and we don’t collect personal information. The purpose of this data is to improve our Website and offerings.
If you wish to opt out of Google Analytics so that none of your personal information is collected and stored by Google Analytics, you can download and install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on here. For more information on how Google collects and uses your data, you can access the Google Privacy Policy here.
Who we share your data with
We don’t sell or share your data with anyone. We do use a 3rd party email provider to store your email address if you voluntarily signed up for our email newsletter. The privacy policy for Hubspot can be found here. We also use third party software for our course platform and membership access.

When you purchase from us, we’ll ask you to provide email address. We’ll use this information for purposes, such as, to:
- Send you information about your account and order

If you register a free account then we will store your email address.
We store information about you for as long as your account exists.

We accept payments through PayPal. When processing payments, some of your data will be passed to PayPal, including information required to process or support the payment, such as the purchase total and billing information.
Please see the PayPal Privacy Policy and the Stripe Privacy Policy for more details.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where we send your data
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
