6. How We Use Personal Information
We use personal information for the following business and commercial purposes:

7. Legal Bases for Processing (International Visitors)
For visitors in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, we rely on: (a) consent (analytics, marketing, contact form where required); (b) legitimate interests (site security, responding to inquiries); and (c) legal obligation. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting prior lawful processing.
8. Disclosure of Personal Information
We may disclose personal information to the following categories of third parties for business purposes:
- Service providers / processors — hosting, email delivery, analytics (with consent), and IT security vendors bound by contractual confidentiality and data protection obligations
- Legal and regulatory authorities — when required by law, subpoena, court order, or governmental request
- Professional advisors — attorneys, accountants, or insurers when necessary to protect our legal interests
We do not sell personal information for monetary or other valuable consideration. We do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising (targeted advertising) unless you explicitly consent to marketing cookies through our cookie banner.
9. Sale and Sharing — Your Opt-Out Rights
Under California and certain other state laws, "sale" and "sharing" have specific legal definitions. We do not sell personal information. If we ever engage in sharing for cross-context behavioral advertising, we will provide a clear "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" link and honor opt-out preference signals, including the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal where required by law.
To opt out of analytics or marketing cookies, use our cookie banner ("Reject" or "Cookie Settings") or contact us at the email below.

We respond within 45 days of receiving a verifiable request. If additional time is needed (up to 45 additional days), we will notify you. You may designate an authorized agent to submit a request on your behalf by providing written authorization and proof of identity.
13. California Residents (CCPA / CPRA)
This section applies to California residents and supplements the information above.

If you believe we have not adequately addressed your concern, you may contact the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA) at cppa.ca.gov.
14. Missouri Residents (MDPA)
Missouri residents have rights similar to those described in Section 12, including the right to access, correct, delete, and obtain a portable copy of personal data, and to opt out of the sale of personal data and targeted advertising.

Contact us to submit requests or appeals. Supervisory authorities vary by state — contact your state Attorney General for guidance on filing complaints.
16. International Visitors (GDPR / UK GDPR)
If you are in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, you have additional rights including access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, objection, and withdrawal of consent. Contact us at the email above. We respond within 30 days. You may lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. Cross-border transfers use appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses where required.
17. Children's Privacy (COPPA)
Our Website is not directed to children under 13 years of age, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 in compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child under 13 has provided us personal information, contact us immediately at helpdesk@masteryartminds.world and we will promptly delete such information.
18. Do Not Track
Some browsers transmit "Do Not Track" (DNT) signals. Because there is no uniform industry standard for responding to DNT signals, we do not currently respond to them. You may use our cookie consent tool to manage tracking preferences.
19. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be posted on this page with a revised "Last updated" date. Where required by law, we will provide additional notice (such as a banner on the Website). Continued use after changes constitutes acknowledgment of the updated Policy.
