If you purchase a course or masterclass, we may use your information to create or facilitate an account that allows you to access the purchased content.
Our course content is currently delivered using Systeme.io. Information such as your name, email address, account details, course enrolment and activity associated with your account may therefore be processed through Systeme.io.

The relevant third-party platforms may process this information in accordance with their own privacy policies.

3. Our Legal Bases for Processing
We process personal information only where we have an appropriate legal basis under applicable data protection law.
Depending on the circumstances, these may include:
Performance of a contract
We may process your information where necessary to fulfil a contract with you or take steps at your request before entering into a contract.
For example, this may apply when we:
process your purchase;
enrol you in a course;
provide login or course access;
deliver a product or service; or
provide customer support relating to your purchase.
Consent
We may rely on your consent for certain activities, including some:
email marketing;
advertising cookies;
analytics cookies; and
advertising or tracking technologies.
Where processing is based on consent, you can withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing that occurred before consent was withdrawn.
Legitimate interests
We may process information where it is necessary for our legitimate business interests and those interests are not overridden by your rights and interests.
These interests may include:
operating and improving our business;
understanding the effectiveness of our services;
responding to enquiries;
protecting our websites and business from misuse;
maintaining appropriate business records; and
understanding and improving customer experience.
Where required, we consider the impact of this processing on your privacy before relying on legitimate interests.
Legal obligations
We may process and retain information where necessary to comply with applicable legal obligations, including accounting, taxation, regulatory and record-keeping requirements.
4. Email Marketing
If you subscribe to our emails, request certain free resources or otherwise consent to receiving marketing communications, we may send you emails about The Geo Method's products, services, educational content and offers.
We currently use Beehiiv to manage these communications.
You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in our emails.
You can also contact us at support@thegeomethod.com.
Unsubscribing from marketing communications will not prevent us from sending transactional or service-related communications where necessary, such as information about a purchase or your course access.
5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Our websites may use cookies, pixels and similar technologies to operate the websites, remember preferences, understand website usage and measure advertising performance.
These technologies may include services provided by:
Google, including Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager;
Meta;
TikTok; and
other providers necessary to operate our websites and services.
Where required by applicable law, non-essential cookies and tracking technologies will only be used after you have provided the relevant consent.
You can manage your choices through the cookie controls made available on our websites and, where applicable, through your browser settings.
Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that took place before the withdrawal.
6. Who We Share Personal Information With
We do not sell your personal information in the ordinary meaning of selling personal information for money.
We may disclose or make personal information available to service providers where necessary to operate The Geo Method.
These may include:
Stripe — payment processing and transaction administration.
Systeme.io — course hosting, account management and delivery of course content.
Beehiiv — email subscriptions and marketing communications.
Google — website analytics, measurement and tag management.
Meta — advertising, conversion measurement and audience-related functionality where enabled.
TikTok — advertising, conversion measurement and audience-related functionality where enabled.
We may also use website hosting, automation, communications, professional-services and other technology providers as reasonably necessary to operate our business.
We may disclose personal information where required by law or where reasonably necessary to protect our legal rights, users, business or other persons.
If our business or assets are involved in a merger, acquisition, restructuring or sale, personal information may also be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.
7. International Transfers
Some of the third-party services we use operate internationally or process information in countries outside Hungary or the European Economic Area.
This means your personal information may in some circumstances be processed in another country, including countries whose data protection laws differ from those in the European Economic Area or United Kingdom.
Where required, we take appropriate steps to ensure that international transfers of personal information are protected by a lawful transfer mechanism, such as an applicable adequacy decision, standard contractual clauses or another safeguard recognised under applicable data protection law.
You can contact us at support@thegeomethod.com if you would like further information about safeguards relevant to transfers of your personal information.
8. How Long We Keep Your Information
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including to satisfy legal, accounting, tax and reporting requirements.
Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and why we process it.
For example:
customer and transaction records may be retained for the period necessary to comply with applicable tax, accounting and legal obligations;
course account information may be retained while your account or access remains active and for an appropriate period afterwards;
marketing information may be retained until you unsubscribe or otherwise withdraw consent, subject to retaining limited suppression information where necessary to honour your preference; and
analytics and cookie information may be retained according to our settings and those of the relevant technology provider.
When information is no longer required, we will delete or anonymise it where reasonably practicable, subject to applicable legal requirements.
9. Your Data Protection Rights
Depending on where you live and the applicable law, you may have rights in relation to your personal information.
These may include the right to:
request access to personal information we hold about you;
request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information;
request deletion of your personal information in certain circumstances;
request restriction of processing in certain circumstances;
object to certain processing;
receive certain personal information in a portable format;
withdraw consent where processing is based on consent; and
lodge a complaint with an appropriate data protection authority.
These rights are not absolute and may be subject to exemptions or conditions under applicable law.
You have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal information for direct marketing purposes.
To exercise your rights, contact us at:
We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling certain requests.
10. Complaints
If you have concerns about how we process your personal information, we encourage you to contact us first at support@thegeomethod.com so that we can investigate your concern.
You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with the data protection supervisory authority that applies to you.
As QDL Alegria Kft. is established in Hungary, the relevant Hungarian supervisory authority is the Hungarian National Authority for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (NAIH).
If you are located elsewhere, you may also have rights to contact the relevant supervisory authority in your country, where applicable.
11. Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.
However, no website, online service or method of electronic transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
12. Third-Party Websites and Services
Our websites may contain links to websites, social-media platforms or services operated by third parties.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices of independent third parties. We recommend reviewing the privacy information provided by those services before providing personal information to them.
13. Children's Privacy
The Geo Method's products and services are not intended for children.
We do not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children through our websites or services. If we become aware that we have collected children's personal information contrary to applicable law, we will take appropriate steps to delete it.
14. Automated Decision-Making
We do not currently use personal information to make decisions based solely on automated processing that produce legal effects or similarly significant effects on individuals.
We may use analytics, advertising and marketing technologies to measure interactions and help us understand audiences, but these activities are not intended to make such legally or similarly significant automated decisions about you.
15. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our business, websites, technology, service providers or legal obligations.
When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this policy.
Where required by law, we will provide additional notice of material changes.
