Contract

Processing may be necessary to complete a purchase, deliver a product or provide requested customer support.

We may rely on your consent for activities such as optional marketing communications or non-essential cookies where consent is required. You may withdraw your consent at any time, although this will not affect processing completed before withdrawal.

We may process information where reasonably necessary to operate and improve our business, maintain website security, prevent fraud, understand customer needs or respond to enquiries, provided that those interests are not overridden by your rights.

Legal obligations

We may process or retain information to comply with tax, accounting, regulatory, court or law-enforcement requirements.

6. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Cookies are small files placed on your browser or device when you visit a website.

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to:

• Enable essential website functions;

• Remember visitor preferences;

• Maintain website security;

• Prevent spam and misuse;

• Understand website traffic and performance;

• Measure interactions with advertisements; and

• Improve the website and customer experience.

Some cookies are necessary for the website to function. Analytics and advertising cookies may be optional, depending on applicable law.

Where legally required, we will request permission before placing non-essential cookies on your device.

You can restrict, block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect the availability or performance of some website features.

7. Analytics and Advertising

We may use analytics or advertising services, such as website analytics tools or advertising pixels, to understand how visitors find and use our website and to measure campaign performance.

These providers may collect information through cookies, pixels or similar technologies, including your IP address, device information, pages visited and interactions with our website or advertisements.

Where required by applicable law, these technologies will be activated only after appropriate notice or consent.

8. Comments and Gravatar

If commenting is enabled and you submit a comment, we may collect the information entered in the comment form, together with your IP address and browser information, to help identify spam and misuse.

An anonymised version of your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to determine whether you use that service. If your comment is approved, your profile image may appear publicly beside the comment.

You can review the Automattic and Gravatar Privacy Policy.

Do not include sensitive personal or health information in a public comment.

9. Embedded Content and External Links

Our website may contain embedded videos, images, payment buttons, articles or other content supplied by third-party websites.

Embedded content may behave as if you visited the third-party website directly. The provider may collect information, place cookies or monitor your interaction with that content according to its own privacy practices.

Our website may also link to websites that we do not own or control. Real Talk Guides is not responsible for the content, security or privacy practices of those external websites. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing personal information.

10. How We Share Personal Information

We may disclose personal information to service providers where reasonably necessary to operate our website and business, including:

Service providers process information for their respective services and are subject to their own legal, security and privacy obligations.

We do not sell personal information for money.

11. International Data Transfers

Our website, checkout provider and other service providers may operate in different countries. As a result, personal information may be processed outside the country in which you live.

Where required by applicable law, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that international transfers are subject to appropriate legal safeguards and that personal information receives an adequate level of protection.

12. How Long We Retain Information

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including to:

• Complete and document transactions;

• Deliver purchased products;

• Provide customer support;

• Maintain security and prevent fraud;

• Comply with tax, accounting and legal obligations;

• Resolve disputes; and

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and applicable legal requirements.

Comments and related information may be retained for as long as the comment remains published or as necessary for moderation and security.

When information is no longer required, we will take reasonable steps to delete, anonymise or securely dispose of it.

13. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, organisational and technical measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, alteration, misuse or disclosure.

However, no website, electronic-storage system or method of internet transmission is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

You should also take appropriate precautions when using the internet and avoid sending sensitive information through unsecured communication channels.

You may unsubscribe at any time by:

• Using the unsubscribe option provided in the communication; or

Unsubscribing from marketing messages will not prevent us from sending essential transactional or service-related communications concerning a purchase or support request.

16. Children’s Privacy

Our website and digital products are intended for adults and are not directed to children under 18.

We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children. If you believe that a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so we can review the matter and delete the information where appropriate.

17. Health and Educational Information

The Bad Breath Reset and other Real Talk Guides products are educational resources.

They are not substitutes for diagnosis, treatment or advice from a dentist, doctor or other qualified healthcare professional.

We do not require customers to provide medical or health information when purchasing a guide. Please do not submit medical records or sensitive health information through our website, comments or general email address.

18. Automated Decision-Making

Real Talk Guides does not currently use personal information to make solely automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects concerning individuals.

If this changes, we will update this policy and provide any notice required by applicable law.

19. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes to our website, services, technology, service providers or legal obligations.

When we make changes, we will post the revised policy on this page and update the “Last updated” date. Material changes may also be communicated through the website or another appropriate channel.
