The Working Leader ("we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect when you visit our website, sign up for our newsletter, or use our materials, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using our site, you agree to this policy.
Information we collect
Information you give us. When you subscribe to our newsletter, download a resource, or contact us, we collect the information you provide — typically your first name and email address, and anything you include in a message to us.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, we may automatically collect basic usage information when you visit — such as your browser type, device, approximate location, referring page, and the pages you view — through cookies and similar technologies and through analytics tools.
Information from service providers. Our email and analytics providers may collect information on our behalf, such as whether you opened an email or clicked a link, to help us understand what's useful.
How we use your information
- To send you our newsletter and deliver the free resources you requested.
- To respond to your questions and messages.
- To measure and improve our content and understand what readers find helpful.
- To operate, maintain, and secure our website.
- To comply with the law and protect our rights.
We do not sell your personal information, and we don't rent or trade your email address.
Email and marketing
If you subscribe, we'll send you our newsletter and occasional updates about our content and products. Every email includes an unsubscribe link, and you can opt out at any time — we'll stop sending marketing emails promptly. We may still send you essential messages related to something you requested, such as delivering a resource.
Cookies and analytics
We use cookies and similar technologies to make the site work, remember your preferences, and understand how the site is used. We may use analytics services (such as Google Analytics) that set their own cookies. You can control cookies through your browser settings, and where required we'll ask for your consent. Turning off some cookies may affect how the site works.
Affiliate links
Some links on our site — for example, to recommended books — are affiliate links, including through the Amazon Associates program. If you click one and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. See our Disclaimer for more.
Who we share information with
We share information only with the service providers that help us run The Working Leader — such as our email platform, analytics provider, website host, and, if you make a purchase, a payment processor. These providers may only use your information to perform services for us. We may also disclose information if required by law or to protect our rights, or in connection with a business transfer.
Data retention
We keep your information for as long as your subscription is active or as needed to provide our content, and afterward only as long as necessary for legitimate business or legal purposes. If you unsubscribe and ask us to delete your data, we will do so, subject to any records we're required to keep.
Your rights and choices
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to withdraw consent. This includes rights under the EU/UK GDPR and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA). You can unsubscribe from any email at any time, and you can exercise your other rights by emailing us at info@theworkingleader.com. We won't discriminate against you for exercising these rights.
Children's privacy
Our site and content are intended for adults and are not directed to children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us and we'll delete it.
Security
We use reasonable measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we can't guarantee absolute security.
International visitors
We operate in the United States, and your information may be processed and stored there or in other countries where our service providers operate. By using our site, you understand your information may be transferred to countries with different data-protection laws than your own.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we'll change the "Last updated" date above, and significant changes will be posted on this page. Your continued use of the site means you accept the updated policy.
