This Privacy Policy explains what information The Independent Income Club (“we,” “us”) collects when you visit theindependentincomeclub.com, how we use it, and what choices you have. We’ve tried to write it in plain English, consistent with everything else on this site.
1. Information we collect
Analytics data. Like most websites, we use analytics tools (currently Google Analytics, via the MonsterInsights plugin) to understand how visitors use our site — pages viewed, time on site, general location, and device type. This data is aggregated and doesn’t identify you personally.
Affiliate tracking cookies. When you click an affiliate link on this site, the merchant or affiliate network (such as Impact, Awin, CJ Affiliate, or ShareASale) may place a cookie in your browser to track that the referral came from us. See our Affiliate Disclosure for more on this.
Email address. If you choose to sign up for our free 90-Day Income Momentum Checklist or any future newsletter, we’ll collect the email address you provide, via our email service provider, so we can send you the resource and related content you’ve opted in to receive.
Security and firewall data. We use a website security plugin (Wordfence) to help protect the site from malicious activity. This may involve processing technical information like IP addresses for security purposes only.
2. How we use your information
We use the information above to operate and improve the site, understand what content is useful to readers, deliver resources you’ve requested (like the checklist), send occasional emails if you’ve subscribed, and keep the site secure. We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
3. Cookies
This site uses cookies for analytics, affiliate tracking, and basic site functionality. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings at any time; doing so may affect how some parts of the site function.
4. Third-party services
We work with third-party service providers — including our hosting provider, analytics provider, email service provider, and affiliate networks — who may process data on our behalf as part of delivering their service. Each of these providers has its own privacy practices, and we encourage you to review them if you’d like more detail.
5. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or request deletion of your personal information, including unsubscribing from any email list at any time via the link in every email we send. To exercise any of these rights, contact us directly and we’ll respond as promptly as we can.
6. International visitors
This site is accessed by visitors from a number of countries, including the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. By using this site, you understand that your information may be processed in Australia or in the countries where our service providers operate, which may have different data protection laws than your own country.
7. Children’s privacy
This site is intended for an adult audience and isn’t directed at children. We don’t knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18.
8. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as the site and its tools evolve. We’ll update the “last updated” date above whenever meaningful changes are made.
