The short version: I collect only what I need to deliver your course, support you, and keep accurate purchase records. I do not sell or rent your personal information. Ever.
This policy applies to alansaccelerator.com and to any text message, email, or other communication you have with Alan's Accelerator.
1. Who We Are
This website and the Letter Writing Guide course are operated by Alan's Accelerator ("Alan's Accelerator," "we," "us," or "I"). This site is an educational resource intended for adults 18 years or older (21+ where required by law).
You can reach me any time by texting 520-379-2983. If your question is specifically about privacy, start your message with the word "privacy" so I can route it correctly.
2. Information You Give Us
I only collect information that you voluntarily provide. That may include:
- Contact information — your name, phone number, and email address if you share it.
- Order information — what you purchased, the payment method you chose, and confirmation details.
- Messages — the content of the texts or emails you send me, including support questions and follow-ups.
- Optional details — such as the state you live in, so I can tell you whether the guide currently focuses on your area.
- Feedback & testimonials — anything you send me, including screenshots or reviews, if you choose to share them.
3. Payment Information
I do not collect or store full credit card numbers, bank login credentials, or crypto wallet private keys. Payments are completed through third-party services such as PayPal, Venmo, Bitcoin, or gift cards.
Those providers handle your payment data under their own privacy policies, and I encourage you to review them. If you pay by gift card, you may send a redemption code — I use it only to complete your order and verify payment.
4. Text Messaging (SMS) Terms
When you text 520-379-2983, you consent to receive text replies from me related to your order, course access, updates, and support.
- Message frequency varies based on your questions and my updates.
- Message and data rates may apply depending on your mobile carrier and plan.
- You can opt out at any time by replying STOP. However, opting out may prevent me from delivering course access, updates, and lifetime support.
- Reply HELP for assistance, or simply text me with a question.
- I do not sell, rent, or share your phone number with third parties for their marketing purposes.
- I do not send unsolicited marketing blasts to people who have never contacted me.
5. Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, my hosting provider and any analytics tools I use may automatically log technical information such as your IP address, device type, browser type, referring pages, and the pages you visit on this site. This data is used in aggregate to keep the site working and to understand what content is useful.
If you prefer, you can adjust your browser settings to block or delete cookies. Some parts of the site may not function as intended if you do.
6. How I Use Your Information
- To deliver your course link and downloadable PDF
- To verify that payment was received
- To provide customer support, lifetime updates, and answers to your questions
- To keep accurate records of purchases
- To improve the website, the course, and the overall experience
- To prevent fraud, enforce my policies, and comply with legal obligations
7. How I Share Information
I do not sell or rent your personal information. I only share it in limited situations:
- Payment providers — to process and verify your payment.
- Service providers — such as hosting, messaging, email delivery, or analytics providers who need the information to perform their function.
- Legal & fraud prevention — if required by law, subpoena, or court order, or if necessary to investigate fraud, chargebacks, or violations of my terms.
- Business transfer — if the business is ever sold or transferred, customer information may be part of that transfer.
8. Cookies & Analytics
This site may use cookies or similar technologies for basic functionality and analytics. Cookies are small files stored on your device. They do not give me access to your device or personal files. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings.
9. Third-Party Links & Platforms
The course discusses third-party sweepstakes platforms and other services. Once you visit those websites or create accounts with them, their privacy policies and terms apply — not mine. I do not control, and am not responsible for, how those companies collect or use your information. Please review their policies before participating.
10. Data Retention
I keep order records and contact information only as long as needed to provide support and updates, comply with tax and legal obligations, and prevent fraud. When that information is no longer needed, it is deleted or anonymized.
11. Security
I take reasonable measures to protect the information you share with me. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. I cannot guarantee absolute security, and you provide information at your own risk.
12. Children's Privacy
This site and course are intended for adults 18 years or older (21+ where required). They are not directed to children, and I do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has sent me information, text me and I will delete it.
13. Your Choices & Rights
You may contact me at any time to:
- Request a copy of the personal information I hold about you
- Request a correction to inaccurate information
- Request deletion of your information (subject to legal and recordkeeping requirements)
- Opt out of text messages by replying STOP
Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under applicable state privacy laws. I will honor those rights to the extent the law requires. I may need to verify your identity before completing a request, and I will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.
14. Do Not Track Signals
Some browsers send "Do Not Track" signals. This site does not currently respond to those signals, but you can control tracking through your browser settings and cookie preferences.
15. Changes to This Policy
I may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When I do, I will post the revised version on this page with a new "last updated" date. Your continued use of the site or the course after an update means you accept the revised policy.
16. Educational Disclaimer Reminder
This website and course are provided for educational purposes only. No income, winnings, approvals, credits, or specific results are guaranteed. Results vary based on your effort, consistency, eligibility, and the policies of participating companies. See the full disclaimer on the main page.
