Please note: I value your trust. I use cookies to keep my website running smoothly, manage my community needs, and MailPoet to send you my letters. I never sell your data and I don’t use it to train AI.
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy outlines how your personal information is collected, used, and shared when you visit cassiewilkins.com (the “Site”) or engage with my professional services, including The Lemonade Factory membership, digital courses, and masterminds.

2. Legal Basis for Processing
I process personal data only when there is a clear legal basis to do so:

- Legitimate Interests: For website security, fraud prevention, and site optimization.
3. Types of Data Collected
- Identity and Contact Data: Names, email addresses, and phone numbers.
- Account and Profile Data: For members and students, I collect usernames, encrypted passwords, and profile preferences.

4. Data Security and AI Policy
- Security Measures: I have implemented appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data and account credentials from unauthorised access.
- Generative AI Disclosure: I do not use any personal information, session notes, recordings, user-generated community content, or creative work provided by clients to train Large Language Models (LLMs) or other Generative AI tools. Client data is strictly excluded from machine learning processes.
5. Third-Party Disclosures and International Transfers
I do not sell or rent your personal data. I share data only with trusted third-party service providers (e.g., Stripe, PayPal, MailPoet, Zoom, Google Meet, WhatsApp, SiteGround, and my membership management software) as necessary to provide my services.
- International Transfers: For residents of the UK and EU, I ensure that transfers to countries outside the EEA/UK are protected by Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or equivalent legal safeguards.
