The data controller for everything described here is Paolo Rivosecchi, Via Sandro Pertini 10, 10080 Vistrorio (TO), Italy — VAT number IT12835040010. No Data Protection Officer has been appointed. You can reach us at info@harmoniccircleacademy.org.
We collect only what you type into a form. There is no advertising pixel on this site, no cross-site tracking, and we never sell or share your data with anyone for their own purposes.
If you ask for a supported place, what you write goes to two people and is never added to a mailing list.
| When | What | Why | How long |
|---|---|---|---|
| You join the newsletter or the free seven-day course | Your email address, and your first name if you give it | To send you what you asked for. Your consent — you can withdraw it from any message | Until you unsubscribe |
| You ask for a supported place | Name, email, the amount you can sustain, and what you write about your situation | To decide together on a rate and answer you. Your consent, given with the tick box on the form | Twelve months after we've answered, then deleted |
| You write to us | Whatever is in your message | To reply. Our legitimate interest in answering people who contact us | Twenty-four months |
| You buy a course | Handled by Sutra and Stripe — we never see or store your card details | To provide what you paid for, and to keep the accounts | As long as tax law requires |
| You visit the site | Your IP address and browser, in the server log | Security and keeping the site running. Our legitimate interest | Deleted automatically by the host |
That form asks about your financial situation. It is a free-text box, so people sometimes write about health or personal difficulties too. Please don't — we've said so on the form as well. A few words about your circumstances is all we need, and the less you write about health the less there is for anyone to look after.
This site sets no cookies of its own and runs no analytics or advertising scripts. That's why you aren't being asked to accept anything.
Two things do load from outside: the typefaces come from Google Fonts, and videos are embedded from YouTube in privacy-enhanced mode. A video sets nothing until you click play. If you do click, YouTube may set its own cookies under its own policy.
They act on our instructions and cannot use your data for their own purposes. Where any of them handles data outside the European Union, that transfer is covered by the safeguards the law requires.
Write to info@harmoniccircleacademy.org and we'll answer within a month, usually much sooner. If you think we've handled your data badly, you can complain to the Italian data protection authority, the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali.
We'll update the date at the top. If a change actually affects you — not a wording tidy-up — we'll tell you by email.
