Privacy Policy

01Who we are

Digital Gold Boom (“we”, “us”, “our”) operates the website at https://digitalgoldboom.com, run by Andrew Fletcher. This policy explains what personal information we collect, why, how we use it, and the choices and rights you have. Contact us any time at fletcher@digitalgoldboom.com.

02Information we collect

We only collect what we need to run the site, the newsletter, the book sale, and the affiliate program:

• Email address — when you join the newsletter, the launch waitlist, or the affiliate early-interest list.
• Optional details you choose to give — your name, or your company and role. These are optional.
• Purchase information — when you buy the book, our payment provider (LemonSqueezy) processes your payment and shares limited order details (such as your email and order status) with us. We never see or store your full card details.
• Usage data — privacy-friendly, aggregate analytics about how pages are used (via Vercel Analytics), and standard server logs (such as IP address) used for security and to prevent abuse.

03How we use your information

• To send you the emails you signed up for and the launch updates you asked for.
• To deliver the book and your receipt after a purchase.
• To run the affiliate / share-to-earn program and, in future, to pay rewards.
• To keep the site secure, prevent spam and abuse, and fix problems.
• To understand, in aggregate, what content helps people — never to profile you individually.

04Legal bases (GDPR)

If you are in the EU/UK, we rely on: your consent (for marketing emails — which you can withdraw at any time); performance of a contract (to deliver a book you bought); and our legitimate interests (to keep the site secure and improve it), balanced against your rights.

05Cookies and analytics

We use Vercel Analytics, which is designed to be privacy-friendly and does not use tracking cookies to follow you across sites. If we ever add cookies that aren’t strictly necessary, we will ask for your consent first where the law requires it.

06Who we share it with

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with the service providers that help us run the site, and only as needed:

• LemonSqueezy — payment processing and order/receipt delivery.
• Kit (formerly ConvertKit) — our email/newsletter platform.
• Vercel — website hosting and privacy-friendly analytics.
• Authorities — only if required by law.

07How long we keep it

We keep your information for as long as you are subscribed or have an active relationship with us, and as long as needed for legal, accounting, or security reasons. You can ask us to delete your data at any time (see your rights below).

08Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or receive a copy of your data, to object to or restrict certain uses, and to withdraw consent. Under California’s CCPA/CPRA you can request to know, delete, or correct your information, and opt out of any “sale” or “sharing” — we do not sell or share your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.

To exercise any right, email fletcher@digitalgoldboom.com. Every marketing email also has a one-click unsubscribe link.

09International transfers

Our providers may process data in countries other than yours, including the United States. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards (such as Standard Contractual Clauses) for those transfers.

10Children

This site and the book are intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16. If you believe a child has given us information, contact us and we will delete it.

11Security

We protect the site with HTTPS, server-side input validation, signed payment webhooks, and security headers. No method of transmission is perfectly secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect your information.

12Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the site grows. We’ll change the “last updated” date above and, for material changes, let subscribers know.
