Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Akriva LLC, doing business as The Options Engineer, collects, uses, shares, and protects information when you use TheOptionsEngineer.com, subscribe to updates, or contact us.
1. Information we collect
Information you provide
- Email address and any name or other information you submit through signup, contact, coaching-interest, or early-access forms.
- Messages, attachments, feedback, and other information you send to us.
- Transaction and billing information if paid products or services are offered later; payment-card information should be processed by a third-party payment provider rather than stored directly by us.
Information collected automatically
- Internet Protocol address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring pages, pages viewed, approximate region, timestamps, diagnostic logs, and security events.
- Cookies or similar technologies needed for security, functionality, preferences, and analytics, if enabled.
2. How we use information
- Provide the website, research updates, requested communications, support, and future product or coaching information.
- Operate email subscriptions, process unsubscribe requests, and maintain suppression records so we do not re-add people who opted out.
- Respond to inquiries, evaluate product feedback, prevent abuse, diagnose technical issues, and improve content and user experience.
- Protect our rights, users, systems, and business; comply with law; and establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
3. Email communications
We use Kit/ConvertKit to manage email subscriptions. You may unsubscribe using the link in any marketing email or by contacting us. Transactional or legally required messages may still be sent when appropriate. We do not require payment or unnecessary personal information to process an unsubscribe request.
4. How we share information
We may share information with service providers that help us host, secure, analyze, communicate, or operate the site, including Cloudflare and Kit/ConvertKit. These providers process information under their own terms and privacy practices. We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with law, respond to lawful requests, protect rights or safety, investigate misuse, or complete a merger, financing, reorganization, or sale of all or part of the business.
We do not sell personal information. We do not knowingly share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
5. Retention
We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described above, including to provide requested communications, maintain unsubscribe and compliance records, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and meet legal, tax, accounting, and security obligations.
6. Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards. No internet transmission, storage system, or security measure is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
7. Your choices and rights
You may request access, correction, or deletion of information you provided, or withdraw consent to marketing emails, by contacting us. We may need to verify your request and may retain information when required or permitted by law, including fraud-prevention, legal, and unsubscribe records. Additional rights may apply depending on where you live.
8. Children
The site and services are intended for adults and are not directed to children under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Contact us if you believe a child has submitted personal information.
9. International visitors
The site is operated from the United States. Information may be processed and stored in the United States and other countries where our providers operate, which may have different data-protection laws than your jurisdiction.
10. External links
We are not responsible for the privacy, security, or content practices of third-party websites, platforms, brokers, analytics providers, or other services linked from the site.
11. Changes
We may update this Policy. The effective date above will be revised when material changes are published. Continued use after an update means the revised Policy applies to future use.
