Business Bestie – Privacy Policy
Who we are
The Business Bestie is a trading name of Emma May Oliver, a sole trader based at Unit 5, Bordesley Hall Farm Barns, Storrage Lane, Alvechurch, B48 7ES. Emma is the "data controller" for the information you share with us, which simply means she decides how it's used and is responsible for looking after it. This policy explains what information we collect when you join the Bestie List, why we collect it, and what your rights are.
What we collect
When you join the Bestie List, we collect:
- Your first name
- Your email address
- A record that you ticked the consent box, and when you signed up
We only collect what we need to keep you updated and send you the things you've signed up for.
How we use it
We use your details to:
- Send you updates about the Business Bestie Signature Box and other Business Bestie news, offers and launches
- Let you know about Founding Bestie opportunities and benefits
We only email you because you asked us to. We won't add you to any list you didn't sign up for, and we won't use your details for anything beyond what's described here.
Why we're allowed to use it
We use your details because you've given us your consent, by ticking the box when you joined the Bestie List. You can withdraw your consent at any time by unsubscribing or emailing us, and we'll stop straight away.
Sharing your information
We don't sell or share your details with third parties for their own marketing.
Our website, sign-up form and emails run on Funnel Sketchers, which is built on the HighLevel platform. They store and process your name and email on our behalf so we can send you emails. They act under our instructions and are bound by their own data protection obligations.
HighLevel is based in the USA, so your details may be stored or processed outside the UK. Where that happens, your information is protected by safeguards recognised under UK law, such as the UK–US Data Bridge or approved contract terms.
How long we keep it
We keep your details for as long as you're on the Bestie List. If you unsubscribe or ask us to delete your information, we'll remove it. We keep only your email address on a "do not contact" list, so we never email you again by mistake.
Cookies
Our sign-up page and form use a small number of cookies that are needed to make them work. If we ever want to use cookies for anything else, such as analytics or advertising, we'll ask for your permission first.
Your rights
Under UK GDPR, you can ask us to:
- Tell you what information we hold about you, and give you a copy
- Correct anything that's inaccurate
- Delete your information
- Stop using your information for marketing
- Withdraw your consent at any time
You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email we send, or by contacting us directly. If you have concerns about how we've handled your data, you also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).
Get in touch
If you have any questions about this policy or how your information is used, email us at [email protected], or write to us at The Business Bestie, Unit 5, Bordesley Hall Farm Barns, Storrage Lane, Alvechurch, B48 7ES.
