Privacy Policy

Last updated: 1 Janaury 2025

We know that Fifty Two For You is built on trust. Our service asks you or your family members to share personal reflections, memories, and life lessons — and we take that responsibility seriously. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store and protect your personal data.

By using our website or services, you agree to this Policy.

1. Who We Are

Fifty Two For You LLC

We call this “Content”.

3.4 Technical and usage data

4. How We Use Your Personal Data

We use your personal data to:

  • Operate and provide the Fifty Two For You service

  • Send weekly questions

  • Send reminders when needed

  • Store Content securely and generate your digital book

  • Provide customer support

  • Process purchases and payments

  • Improve our website and keep it secure

  • Send marketing updates when you’ve opted in (via Brevo)

  • Comply with legal obligations (e.g., accounting and tax requirements)

We only use your data where permitted under UK law — where it’s necessary for our service, where we have legitimate interests, or with your consent (for marketing).

5. How We Use Your Content

Your Content:

  • Is only used to provide the service

  • Is never used for marketing without your explicit permission

  • Is not shared with anyone unless you ask us to

  • Is not used to train external AI models

  • Is deleted 12 months after the service ends

  • Can be deleted earlier if you request it

You are responsible for ensuring you have permission to include personal data about other people in your Content.

6. Our Approach to AI

Fifty Two For You focuses on human stories.

  • We do not use your Content to train AI systems

  • We do not generate AI versions of your stories

  • We may use reputable tools (which can include AI-assisted features) internally for analytics or performance, never to reinterpret your Content

Any data used in this way is anonymised or strictly minimised.

7. Cookies

We use cookies to:

  • Keep the site functioning

  • Understand how people use the website

  • Improve the service

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how the site works.

8. Who We Share Your Data With

We never sell your personal data.

We may share your data with service providers who help us operate the service, including:

  • Website hosting and cloud storage

  • Email provider (Brevo)

  • Payment processor (Stripe)

  • Analytics provider (Google Analytics)

  • Customer support tools

These providers must follow our instructions and keep your data secure.

We may also share data:

  • If required by law

  • To protect rights, safety or prevent fraud

  • As part of a business transfer, merger or restructure (your safeguards remain the same)

We may also share anonymous, aggregated data that cannot identify you.

9. International Transfers

Some of our tools and cloud services may be based outside the UK.

When data is transferred internationally, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place in line with UK data protection law.

10. Data Retention

We keep personal data only as long as necessary.

  • Content: kept for 12 months after your service ends, then deleted unless you request earlier removal.

  • Account and purchase records: kept for legal, tax and business reasons.

  • Support enquiries: kept for a reasonable period to help with follow-up needs.

You can request deletion at any time.

11. How We Protect Your Data

We use security measures such as:

  • Encryption where appropriate

  • Access controls

  • Secure servers

  • Regular reviews and monitoring

  • Restricting access to personal data

No online service can guarantee complete security, but we take all reasonable steps to protect your information.

12. Children

Our service is intended to be purchased and managed by adults.

If you include information about a child in your Content, you must ensure you have the appropriate permission.

If a child provides personal data without proper consent, we will delete it.

Under UK data protection law, you have the right to:

  • Access your personal data

  • Correct inaccurate information

  • Request deletion

  • Restrict how we use your data

We always encourage you to contact us first so we can try to resolve any concerns.
