What we collect

• When you sign up for a free resource or our newsletter: your name and your email address.
• When you buy an ebook: your name, your email address, the billing details the checkout asks for, and what you ordered. Your payment is handled by our payment partners, so we never see or keep your card details.
• When you write to us: your email address and whatever you choose to share in your message.
• When you visit the site: basic technical details such as your browser, your device, your IP address, and the pages you open.

About your child’s information

We do not ask for details about your child. If you choose to tell us about your family in a message, we keep it private and use it only to reply to you. Please share only what you are comfortable sharing.

How we use your information

• To send you the free resources, emails, and updates you signed up for
• To complete your order and send your download link
• To answer your questions and help with any problem
• To see which pages and resources are helpful, so we can make more of them
• To keep records that the law asks us to keep

Who helps us run the site

We do not sell, rent, or trade your information. We share it only with the trusted services that help us run this website, and only as much as they need to do their job:

• MailerLite, which sends our emails
• PayPal, PayMongo, and our other payment partners, which process payments safely
• Google Analytics, which shows us in a general way how people find and use the site
• Our website and hosting services, which keep the site and the shop running

Some of these services are based outside The Philippines, so your information may be stored or handled in another country. We may also share information if the law requires us to.

Cookies

Cookies are small files that a website saves on your device. Ours help the shop remember what is in your cart, keep the checkout working, and show us in a general way how the site is used. You can turn cookies off in your browser settings, but the shop may not work properly without them.

How we keep your information safe

Our website uses a secure connection (the padlock in your browser), and only our small family team can reach the information you give us. No website can promise perfect security, but we take sensible care to protect what you share.

How long we keep it

• Email list: until you unsubscribe or ask us to remove you.
• Order records: for as long as we need them for our business and tax records.
• Messages: for as long as we need them to help you.

Children’s privacy

Our website is made for parents and other adults, not for children to use on their own. We do not knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child has given us their information, please tell us and we will delete it.

Your choices and rights

Wherever you live, you can ask us to:

• Show you the information we hold about you
• Correct it or update it
• Delete it
• Send you a copy of it
• Stop sending you emails

These rights come from privacy laws such as the Data Privacy Act of 2012 in The Philippines, the GDPR in Europe, and the CCPA in California. To use any of them, email us at support@somerasolutions.com. We will reply as soon as we can, and within 30 days.

Links to other websites

Some of our pages link to other websites. Each one has its own privacy policy, and we are not responsible for how those websites handle your information.

Changes to this policy

As Somera Solutions grows, we may update this policy. The newest version will always be on this page, with the date at the top.
