Privacy Policy

Effective Date: May 11, 2026

Fascia-Informed Continuing Education (“Fascia-Informed Continuing Education,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) respects your privacy. We are a small continuing education business, and we want you to feel clear and comfortable about how your information is handled.

This Privacy Policy is intended to describe our privacy practices as a small continuing education business. It does not replace the separate privacy policies of Podia, Stripe, or other third-party services that may process information in connection with our storefront, course platform, or payments.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our Podia storefront may use cookies and similar technologies to make the site function, support login and checkout, remember preferences, understand usage, maintain security, and provide the course experience.

We do not currently add our own paid advertising pixels, retargeting pixels, Google Analytics, Meta/Facebook Pixel, or similar tracking tools to our Podia storefront. If we begin using additional advertising, analytics, or retargeting tools in the future, we may update this Privacy Policy to describe those practices.

You may be able to control cookies through your browser settings. If you block or delete cookies, some storefront, checkout, login, or course features may not work properly.

How We Share Information

We do not sell, rent, trade, or share your personal information with unrelated companies for their own marketing purposes.

We may share or allow access to personal information in the following circumstances:

  • Service providers: We use service providers to help operate our business, including Podia for our storefront and course platform and Stripe for payment processing.

  • Transactions you request: We may share information as needed to process your enrollment, purchase, payment, refund, course access, workshop registration, certificate, message, or support request.

  • Legal and safety reasons: We may disclose information if required by law, legal process, tax or accounting obligations, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect rights, safety, security, or prevent fraud or misuse.

  • Business changes: If our business is ever involved in a merger, acquisition, reorganization, sale of assets, or similar business transaction, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction.

  • With your consent: We may share information in other ways if you ask us to or give us permission.

Podia and Stripe have their own privacy practices. You can review Podia’s privacy information at https://www.podia.com/privacy and Stripe’s privacy information at https://stripe.com/privacy.

Payments

Payments are processed by Stripe or another payment processor supported by Podia. Payment processors may collect payment card information, billing details, transaction information, fraud-prevention information, and other information needed to complete your purchase.

We may receive transaction-related information, such as your name, email address, billing details, purchase amount, purchase date, and course, workshop, or event purchased, but we do not intentionally store complete payment card numbers ourselves.

Email Communications

If you sign up for our emails or purchase a course, we may send you:

  • Course-related and account-related messages

  • Purchase, payment, enrollment, or access information

  • Workshop or event registration information

  • Certificate or completion information

  • Customer support responses

  • Newsletters, educational updates, promotions, or course announcements

You can unsubscribe from marketing emails by using the unsubscribe link in the email or by contacting us at AmyMayer@FasciaInformed.com. Even if you unsubscribe from marketing emails, we may still send transactional or administrative messages, such as purchase confirmations, workshop registration details, course access information, certificate information, policy updates, or responses to your requests.

Course Discussions and Student Content

If you post comments, discussion responses, or other content within a course area, that content may be visible to us and to other enrolled students who have access to that area. If you send us a private message, we may use the information in that message to respond to you, support your course experience, and keep appropriate business records.

Please use care when deciding what to share. Do not post sensitive personal information, confidential information, medical or health information, or information about other people without permission.

Downloadable Materials

Some courses or workshops may include downloadable materials. These materials may include copyright notices or use restrictions. Downloading course materials does not require you to provide additional personal information beyond the information needed to access the course, workshop, or materials.

How Long We Keep Information

We generally retain student, customer, purchase, enrollment, workshop registration, billing, tax, business, course completion, certificate, message, and testimonial-related records for up to 7 years when needed for course access, workshop administration, legal or tax obligations, accounting records, refunds, disputes, business records, or legitimate business purposes.

We may retain information for a shorter or longer period if required or permitted by law, needed to resolve a dispute, necessary to enforce agreements, or maintained in a de-identified or aggregated form that does not reasonably identify you.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures appropriate for a small business to help protect personal information. We also rely on Podia, Stripe, and other service providers to maintain security measures for the systems they operate.

No website, platform, payment system, email system, or internet transmission is completely secure. You are responsible for protecting your account login information and using care when accessing your account or course materials.

Children’s Privacy

Our courses, storefront, and email list are intended for adults age 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children or minors under 18.

If you believe a minor has provided personal information to us, please contact us at AmyMayer@FasciaInformed.com so we can review and take appropriate action.

Your Choices and Privacy Requests

Depending on where you live and the laws that apply, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or restriction of certain personal information. You may also have the right to object to certain uses of personal information or withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.

To make a privacy request, contact us at AmyMayer@FasciaInformed.com. We may need to verify your identity before responding to certain requests. In some cases, we may not be able to fulfill a request completely, such as when we need to retain information for legal, tax, accounting, security, dispute-resolution, course-access, or legitimate business reasons.

International Visitors

Fascia-Informed Continuing Education is based in Omaha, Nebraska, United States. Our Podia storefront, service providers, and related systems may process information in the United States and other locations where our service providers operate.

If you access our storefront or courses from outside the United States, you understand that your information may be processed in the United States or other countries whose privacy laws may differ from those in your location.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of third-party websites or services that we do not control. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services you use.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make changes, we will update the effective date above or otherwise provide notice as appropriate. Your continued use of our storefront, courses, or services after a policy update means the updated policy applies going forward.
