Privacy Policy for ThePodcastGuy.io

Effective Date: [Insert Date]

At ThePodcastGuy.io (“we”, “our”, “us”), we are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring that your personal information is handled in a safe and responsible manner. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect the personal data of our clients and visitors.

By using our website and services, you agree to the terms outlined in this Privacy Policy.

1. What Information We Collect

We collect personal information necessary to deliver our podcast booking services effectively. This may include:

• Name

• Email address

• Professional bio and background

• Social media links and personal branding materials

• Payment information (processed securely via third-party providers)

• Scheduling preferences and availability

We do not collect sensitive personal data (e.g., race, religion, health data) and we do not knowingly collect information from children under 13.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

• Provide and manage our podcast booking services

• Communicate about your bookings, availability, and opportunities

• Improve and personalize your experience

• Process payments (through secure, third-party processors like Stripe or PayPal)

• Fulfill any legal obligations we may have

We do not sell or rent your personal data to anyone — ever. 🙅‍♂️

3. How We Share Your Information

We only share your personal data with third parties when:

• It’s necessary to complete a podcast booking (e.g., sharing your bio with a podcast host)

• We use trusted third-party providers (e.g., scheduling software, email services, CRM tools)

• We’re legally required to (e.g., for tax or legal obligations)

All third-party services we use are compliant with major data protection regulations.

4. Your Data Rights

If you’re located in the EU, UK, or California, you have specific rights:

You can:

• Request access to your personal data

• Correct or update your data

• Request data deletion (“right to be forgotten”)

• Object to or restrict certain types of data processing

• Request a copy of your data (data portability)

To exercise your rights, contact us at [Insert Contact Email]. We’ll respond within 30 days — usually much faster.

5. Cookies and Tracking

We use cookies (the digital kind 🍪, not the chocolate chip kind) to enhance your browsing experience, analyze site traffic, and understand how visitors interact with our site.

You can disable cookies in your browser settings if you prefer a zero-cookie diet. But note, some features of the site may not work as intended without cookies enabled.

6. Data Retention

We keep your personal data only as long as necessary to:

• Fulfill our service obligations

• Comply with legal, accounting, or tax requirements

• Improve our service offerings

You can request data deletion at any time.

7. Security Measures

We use industry-standard security protocols to protect your data, including:

• HTTPS encryption

• Secure third-party payment processors

• Limited access to sensitive data by staff

However, no system is 100% foolproof — so while we take your privacy seriously, we can’t guarantee absolute security (no one can, not even the big guys).

8. International Transfers

Because we serve clients around the globe, your data may be processed in countries outside of your own. We ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, especially for transfers from the EU/UK to the U.S., in line with GDPR requirements.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page, and if they're major, we’ll let you know via email or website notice.
