How do we protect your information?
You are responsible for the security and protection of your username and password on french-lessons.net. We recommend that you choose a strong password and change it frequently. Please do not use the same login information (email and password) on multiple websites.
After a transaction, your private information (credit cards, financial data, etc.) will not be stored on our servers.
Do you use cookies?
Yes, cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer's hard drive through your Web browser (if you have allowed it through your settings). This allows the sites or service providers' systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information.
We use cookies to help us remember and process the items in your shopping cart, understand and save your preferences for future visits, and compile aggregate data about site traffic and interaction to provide you with better experiences and tools in the future.
We may contract with third-party service providers to help us better understand our site visitors. These service providers, however, are not permitted to use the information collected on our behalf except to help us conduct and improve our business directly.
For example, we use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. ("Google") to help us better understand how users interact with our website. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information about the use of our website.
This information is used to compile reports and create services to help us improve our website and related services. The reports reveal website trends without identifying individual visitors. The information generated by the Google cookie about your use of our website (including your IP address) may be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google's behalf. Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google.
On some pages of our website, third parties who provide applications through our website may set their own cookies in order to provide services, track the success of their applications, or customize applications for you. For example, when you share content using a social network sharing button such as Facebook or Twitter, the social network that created the button will record that you did so. Because of the way cookies work, we cannot access these cookies and third parties cannot access the data in the cookies we use.
If you prefer, you can choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent, or you can choose to turn off all cookies via your browser settings. Like most websites, if you disable your cookies, some of our services may not function properly.
Do we disclose information to third parties?
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to third parties your personal information. This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, making payments, delivering products or services purchased, or sending you information or updates.
We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect our rights, property, or safety. However, non-personally identifiable visitor information may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising or other uses.
How long do we keep your information?
We will retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by applicable tax, accounting or other laws.
Third party links
From time to time, at our discretion, we may include or offer third party products or services on our website. These third party sites have separate and independent privacy policies.
