This Privacy Policy explains how ClearCut CFI (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and protects your information when you visit clearcutcfi.com or purchase one of our courses. By using the site, you agree to the practices described here.
Information we collect
Information you give us. When you fill out our contact form, join our email list, or enroll in a course, we collect the details you provide, such as your name and email address. When you make a purchase, your payment is handled by our checkout provider, and we receive confirmation of the order along with your name and email.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, we automatically collect basic technical data when you visit, including your IP address, browser type, device information, the pages you view, and how you arrived at the site. We collect this through cookies and analytics tools described below.
How we use your information
We use the information we collect to respond to your questions, deliver the courses and content you purchase, send emails you have asked to receive, process orders, keep the site secure, and understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it.
Email communications
If you join our email list, we will send you CFI study tips, course updates, and offers. Every email includes an unsubscribe link, and you can opt out at any time. We do not sell or rent your email address to anyone.
Payments
Course purchases are processed by our third-party checkout and payment providers. Your full payment card details are entered directly with those providers and are not stored on our servers. We receive only the information needed to confirm and fulfill your order.
Cookies and analytics
We use cookies and similar technologies to keep the site working, remember your preferences, and measure traffic. We use analytics services, such as Google Analytics, to understand which pages are visited and how the site performs. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, though some parts of the site may not work as well if you do.
Third-party services we rely on
We use trusted third-party services to run the site and the business, including our web host, our content delivery and security provider, our email delivery service, our analytics provider, and our checkout and payment processor. These providers only receive the information they need to perform their service, and each has its own privacy policy governing how it handles data.
How we share information
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with the service providers described above so they can help us operate the site and deliver your purchases, or when required by law.
Data retention
We keep your information for as long as your account or relationship with us is active, or as long as needed to provide the courses, comply with our legal obligations, and resolve disputes. You can ask us to delete your information at any time.
Your choices and rights
You can ask to see the personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. To make a request, reach us through our contact page. You can also unsubscribe from our emails at any time using the link in any message.
Children
ClearCut CFI is intended for adult pilots pursuing flight instructor training. The site is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect information from them.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will change the date at the top of this page. Please check back occasionally so you stay informed about how we protect your information.
