Privacy Policy
Last Updated: 10 July 2026
Guhili Deroka ("we," "us," or "our") operates this website to provide information about our online creative writing and personal storytelling program for adults. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard information when you visit guhili-deroka.info or communicate with us through the contact form or by phone and email. Please read this policy carefully. By using this website, you agree to the practices described here.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information you voluntarily provide when you fill out our contact form, including your name, email address, phone number, and any message content you submit. We may also automatically collect limited technical information such as browser type, device type, general location derived from IP address, and pages visited, typically through cookies and similar technologies described in our Cookie Policy.
2. How We Use Information
We use the information collected to respond to inquiries, provide information about our creative writing programs and coaching services, maintain and improve the functionality of this website, and comply with applicable legal obligations. We do not use personal information to make automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects.
3. Legal Basis and Consumer Rights Under US Law
Depending on your state of residence, you may have rights under applicable state privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act, the Colorado Privacy Act, and similar state statutes. These rights may include the right to know what personal information is collected, the right to request deletion of personal information, the right to correct inaccurate information, and the right to opt out of certain uses. We do not sell personal information as that term is defined under applicable law.
4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
This website uses cookies to support basic functionality, remember preferences, and, where consented to, analyze site usage. A detailed explanation of cookie categories, purposes, and controls is provided in our separate Cookie Policy, which forms part of this Privacy Policy by reference.
5. Third-Party Service Providers
We may engage third-party service providers to assist with website hosting, form processing, and analytics. These providers are given access to personal information only as necessary to perform their functions and are contractually obligated to protect that information in a manner consistent with this policy.
6. Data Retention
We retain personal information submitted through the contact form for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to your inquiry and for a limited period thereafter for recordkeeping purposes, unless a longer retention period is required by law. Analytics data collected through cookies is retained according to the settings described in our Cookie Policy.
7. Data Security
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. Children's Privacy
This website and the program it describes are intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under the age of eighteen. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected such information, we will take steps to delete it promptly.
9. Do Not Track Signals
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" feature. Because there is currently no universally accepted standard for how to respond to such signals, this website does not currently respond to Do Not Track browser signals in a distinct manner.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page indicates when the policy was most recently revised. Continued use of the website after any changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
11. Exercising Your Rights
If you wish to make a request regarding your personal information, including access, correction, or deletion, you may contact us using the details in Section 12 below. We will respond to verifiable requests within the timeframes required by applicable law.
