Privacy
Last updated: 2026-11-13
The short version: we collect as little as we can, we don't sell it, and we don't use advertising trackers.
What we collect, and why
| What | When | Why | Where it's kept |
|---|---|---|---|
| Your email address | When you ask for the free guide | To send the guide, then news about lessons until you unsubscribe | Kit, our email service |
| Your email address, payment details, and billing location | When you join | To take payment and run your membership | Stripe, our payment company. We never see or store your full card number. |
| A customer number from Stripe, your membership status, and a scrambled copy of your email address | When you join | To know that you're a member, and to let you sign in by email | Our site's own storage, hosted at Cloudflare |
| Your email address | When you ask to sign in | To send you the sign-in link | Resend, our email delivery service |
| Technical details such as your IP address and browser type | Whenever you visit | To deliver the site, keep it secure, and stop abuse, such as too many sign-in tries | Cloudflare, our host |
To limit abuse, we also keep short-lived counters (for up to two hours) tied to a scrambled copy of your IP address or email address.
What we don't collect
- Your spreadsheets and data. You upload those to the AI assistant you choose, never to us.
- Your lesson progress and quiz answers. They're saved in your own browser, not on our servers.
- Advertising profiles. We don't use advertising trackers, and we don't sell personal information.
Cookies
We set two cookies, and only once you sign in. One keeps you signed in for up to 30 days. The other just tells our pages that you're signed in, so the menu can show "My lessons." We don't use advertising or analytics cookies. Stripe sets its own cookies on its checkout and billing pages.
Who we share it with
Only the companies named above, which handle the information on our behalf, and anyone the law requires us to give it to.
How long we keep it
- Mailing list: until you unsubscribe.
- Membership records: while you're a member, and afterward for as long as tax and accounting rules require. Stripe keeps payment records as the law requires.
Your choices
- Every email we send has an unsubscribe link.
- To see, correct, or delete the information we hold about you, email hello@helpaiacademy.com. We'll answer within 30 days.
Children
The site is for adults. Membership is for people 18 or older, and we don't knowingly collect information from children under 13.
Where your information is processed
In the United States, and wherever the companies named above operate.
Changes to this page
If we change how we handle personal information, we'll update this page and change the date at the top. If the change matters, we'll email members.
