How we handle your personal data

1. Who we are

If I Was A Rich Girl is responsible (the “controller”) for the processing of your personal data described in this policy.

2. Which data we collect

• Contact details you give us when you sign up for a free masterclass, guide or roadmap, or join Rich Girl Academy: your first name, last name (if given) and email address.
• Masterclass details: the session you registered for, your time zone, and whether you attended or watched the replay.
• Membership and purchase details: when you started a free trial, your plan, payments and cancellations. Payments themselves are handled by the payment provider of the platform you buy on; we do not see or store your full card details.
• How you found us: the campaign information in the link you clicked (for example which ad or post you came from, known as UTM parameters) and the date you signed up.
• Email interaction: whether you open or click our emails, so we can send relevant emails and stop sending to people who are no longer interested.
• Browser information, only if you accept cookies: a Meta browser ID and click ID (cookies called _fbp and _fbc), your browser type (user agent) and the date and time you accepted.
• Messages you send us by email, in the community or via WhatsApp.

3. Why we use it, and on what legal basis

4. Cookies and the Meta pixel

Our website uses a few functional cookies and similar storage that are needed for the site to work, for example to remember your cookie choice. These are always on.

With your permission we also use the Meta pixel, a piece of code from Meta Platforms that places cookies to measure our advertising: for example whether someone who clicked one of our ads went on to sign up. The Meta pixel only loads after you click Accept in our cookie banner. If you click Decline, it does not load and we remove Meta’s cookies from our domain.

Some pages show content from other services, such as a testimonials widget or an embedded registration form. These services may set their own cookies, as described in their own privacy policies.

You can change your choice at any time via Cookie settings (also at the bottom of every page). We remember your choice for 6 months, after which we ask again.

5. Advertising measurement with Meta

If you accepted cookies, we share the following with Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd. when you sign up for a masterclass, start a free trial of Rich Girl Academy, make your first payment or renew your membership: the type of event, its date and time, the amount paid (for payments), your email address and name in hashed (scrambled) form, the Meta browser and click IDs, and your browser type. We send this partly from your browser (the Meta pixel) and partly from our own systems (Meta’s Conversions API), with a shared reference so Meta does not count anything twice.

Meta uses this to tell us how our ads perform and to show our ads to people who are likely to be interested. For this part, Meta and we are jointly responsible. More information is in Meta’s privacy policy.

If you did not accept cookies, we do not share these events or your details with Meta, also not from our own systems. Withdrawing your consent via Cookie settings stops future sharing.

6. Who we share data with

We never sell your data. We use trusted providers (“processors”) that process data on our behalf and under our instructions, such as:

• ActiveCampaign – email marketing and our contact database
• WebinarJam – masterclass registration and hosting
• Skool – the Rich Girl Academy community, membership and payments
• Zapier – connecting these tools with each other
• Google – internal reporting spreadsheets
• HTML Pub – hosting of our website pages
• Payment providers for purchases made outside Skool

Meta receives data as described in section 5, only with your consent. If you join our WhatsApp community, WhatsApp (Meta) processes your data under its own terms, and other members can see your phone number and name. We also share data where the law requires it, for example with the tax authorities or our accountant.

7. Transfers outside the EU

Some of our providers are based in the United States or store data there. In those cases we rely on the EU–US Data Privacy Framework where the provider is certified, or on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses, so that your data stays protected to European standards.

8. How long we keep your data

• Email list and sign-up data: as long as you are subscribed. After you unsubscribe we keep only what is needed to respect that choice, and remove inactive contacts periodically.
• Membership and course data: for as long as you are a member or have access, and up to 2 years after that for customer service and our records.
• Invoices and payment records: 7 years, as required by Dutch tax law.
• Meta browser IDs and consent records: together with your contact record; your cookie choice in your browser expires after 6 months.
• Internal reports on which ads and masterclasses brought in members: up to 3 years.

9. Your rights

Under the GDPR you have the right to:

• see which personal data we have about you (access);
• have incorrect data corrected;
• have your data deleted;
• restrict how we use your data, or object to it (including use based on our legitimate interest);
• receive your data in a usable format to take elsewhere (portability);
• withdraw your consent at any time, without affecting what we did before. Unsubscribe via the link in any email, or change your cookie choice via Cookie settings.

Email team@ifiwasarichgirl.nl to use these rights. We respond within one month. Before we act on a request, we may check that it really comes from you, so we never give your data to someone else.

10. Security

We take appropriate measures to protect your data: our tools are accessed only by people who need them, accounts are secured with strong passwords and two-step verification where available, and our website uses an encrypted (HTTPS) connection.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy when our services or the law change. The date at the top shows when it was last updated. If a change matters for you, we will tell you by email or on our website.

12. Contact and complaints

Questions about your privacy? Email team@ifiwasarichgirl.nl. If you are not happy with how we handle your data, please let us know first so we can fix it. You also have the right to file a complaint with the Dutch Data Protection Authority, the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens.
