How we handle personal information when you visit Flikkit, purchase lessons or contact us.

Last updated:

hello@flikkit.com

1. Who is responsible for your data

Flikkit is responsible for the personal data processed to operate this website and provide our lessons. Business address: 312 W 2nd Street #1045, Casper, WY 82601 United States of America. For privacy enquiries or to exercise your rights, contact hello@flikkit.com. This notice explains our practices and the rights available under applicable privacy law, including the GDPR where it applies.

2. Information we process

  • Contact and purchase information: your name, email address, selected lesson or package, order reference, payment status, and acceptance of purchase terms.
  • Lesson information: bookings, time zone, attendance, package balance, learning goals and information you choose to share with your instructor. Video and audio are transmitted through Google Meet during a lesson.
  • Communications: enquiries, booking requests, feedback, complaints and the information you include in them. Please avoid sending sensitive information that is not needed for your lessons.
  • Technical information: information needed to deliver and protect the website, such as IP address, browser information and security or error logs. Your selected language is stored in your browser and can also appear in the page URL.
  • Stripe processes card and payment information directly. We receive order and payment-confirmation references, but do not store your full card number or card security code.

3. Purposes and legal bases

We use contact, purchase and booking data to take steps at your request before purchase and to perform our contract: process orders, arrange and deliver lessons, manage balances, and provide service-related support. We process records where needed to comply with legal, accounting or tax obligations.

Where applicable, our legitimate interests support proportionate processing to protect the service, prevent fraud, investigate problems and handle legal claims, taking your rights into account. Optional marketing or non-essential tracking requires consent where the law requires it; consent can be withdrawn without affecting the lawfulness of earlier processing. We do not make decisions with legal or similarly significant effects based solely on automated processing.

4. Recipients and service providers

We share only the information needed for the relevant service with instructors and providers supporting our operations. These include Stripe for payments, Google Meet for live video lessons, and Lovable Cloud for website hosting and order-data storage. Email providers handle correspondence, and scheduling providers may process booking information when used to arrange your lessons. These providers may also process some information under their own privacy notices.

We may disclose information to professional advisers or competent authorities where necessary to meet legal obligations, resolve claims or protect legal rights. We do not sell your personal information. Flikkit does not routinely record lessons; any proposed recording must be explained and agreed separately before it takes place.

5. International processing

Flikkit operates from the United States, and our providers may process information in the United States or other countries. Privacy laws in those countries may differ from those where you live. Where GDPR rules require a safeguard for a transfer outside the EEA, an applicable adequacy decision or another lawful transfer mechanism, such as standard contractual clauses, is required. Contact us for information about the destination and safeguards relevant to your data.

6. Retention and security

We retain personal information for as long as needed for the purposes described here. Purchase and payment records are kept for the periods required by applicable accounting, tax and legal rules. Booking and lesson records are retained to deliver purchased lessons, resolve issues and establish or defend claims. Correspondence and technical logs are retained only while needed for support, security or a relevant legal obligation. When no longer needed, information is deleted or anonymised, subject to necessary backup and legal-retention requirements.

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to restrict access and protect information. No online service can guarantee absolute security. Keep your private order-confirmation link confidential, as it provides access to your order status, and tell us if you suspect it has been shared without your permission.

7. Your privacy rights

Depending on the applicable law, you may request access, correction, erasure, restriction or portability of your data, object to processing based on legitimate interests, and withdraw consent. Email hello@flikkit.com to make a request. We may need to verify your identity and will respond within the applicable legal period; GDPR requests are normally answered within one month. Some rights have legal exceptions, including records we must retain.

You may complain to the data protection authority competent for your place of residence, work or the alleged infringement. In Portugal, this is the Comissão Nacional de Proteção de Dados (CNPD). We encourage you to contact us about concerns, but you do not have to do so before contacting an authority.

8. Cookies and browser storage

The website uses storage needed for its operation and to remember your English or Portuguese language preference. It does not currently use analytics or advertising cookies. You can remove stored preferences through your browser settings; this may reset your language choice. If non-essential tracking is introduced, we will provide the required information and obtain consent before using it where required by law.

9. Children and policy updates

Our website is intended for adults arranging language lessons. If a minor participates, a parent or legal guardian should arrange the purchase and contact us about any privacy concerns. We may update this notice to reflect changes to our service or legal requirements. The updated date appears above; material changes will be communicated where required.
