Privacy Policy

Lonare.com (“we”, “us”, “our”) is a blogging and digital content platform that offers written content, community features, online courses, digital products, and advertising delivered by third-party providers.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect personal data when you visit or interact with lonare.com. It also outlines your rights under the UK GDPR and EU GDPR where applicable.

By accessing or using this website, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

Information we collect

We collect information in a limited and proportionate manner, based on how you interact with the website.

Personal information may include your name, email address, login credentials, billing information, or any other details you voluntarily provide when you subscribe to content, create an account, participate in community discussions, purchase courses or digital products, or contact us directly.

We may also collect non-personal and technical information automatically. This can include IP address, browser type, device information, operating system, pages visited, time spent on pages, and referring URLs. This data is used to understand how the website is used and to improve performance, security, and content relevance.

We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal data.

Legal basis for processing under GDPR

Under the General Data Protection Regulation, we process personal data only when a lawful basis applies. These bases include your consent, the performance of a contract, compliance with legal obligations, or our legitimate interests in operating and improving the website.

Consent is typically given when you subscribe, create an account, or opt in to communications. You may withdraw consent at any time.

Contractual necessity applies when data is required to deliver purchased digital products, courses, or community access.

Legitimate interests include analytics, fraud prevention, platform security, and service improvement, provided these interests do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms.

How we use your information

Your information may be used to operate and maintain lonare.com, provide access to content, communities, courses, and digital products, process payments and deliver purchases, communicate service updates or relevant information, improve website functionality and user experience, analyse traffic and engagement patterns, and protect the platform from misuse, abuse, or unlawful activity.

We do not use personal data for automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects.

Community features and user-generated content

Lonare.com may offer community areas where users can post comments, messages, or other content. Any information you choose to share in these areas may be visible to other users.

You are solely responsible for the content you publish and the personal information you choose to disclose publicly. We cannot control how other users store, share, or use information you make public.

We reserve the right, but not the obligation, to moderate or remove community content that violates our policies or applicable laws.

Courses and digital products

When you purchase a course or digital product, limited personal and transactional data is required to process payment and provide access. Payments are handled by third-party payment processors, and we do not store full payment card details on our servers.

All courses and digital products are provided for educational and informational purposes only. We make no guarantees regarding outcomes, results, income, legal standing, or professional success.

Third-party services and advertising

Lonare.com may integrate third-party tools and services, including analytics providers, advertising networks, email services, and payment processors.

These third parties may collect data independently through cookies or similar technologies. Their data practices are governed by their own privacy policies, not ours.

We are not responsible for the content, data handling, or legal compliance of third-party websites, services, or advertisements linked to or displayed on lonare.com.

Cookies and tracking technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to enable core website functionality, remember user preferences, analyse traffic, and measure content performance.

You may manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling cookies may limit certain features or functionality of the website.

Data retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

When data is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymised.

Data security

We implement reasonable technical and organisational safeguards to protect personal data from unauthorised access, loss, misuse, or disclosure.

Despite these measures, no system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Use of the website and transmission of information is therefore at your own risk.

Your rights under GDPR

If you are located in the UK or European Economic Area, you have rights under data protection law. These include the right to access your personal data, the right to request correction of inaccurate data, the right to request erasure, the right to restrict or object to processing, the right to data portability, and the right to withdraw consent at any time.

Requests may be submitted through the contact options provided on the website. We may require identity verification before responding.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office or your local data protection authority.

International data transfers

Some third-party service providers may process data outside the UK or EEA. Where this occurs, appropriate safeguards are used in accordance with GDPR requirements.

Legal disclaimer and limitation of liability

All content, community discussions, courses, and digital products on lonare.com are provided on an “as is” basis.

We do not provide legal, financial, medical, or professional advice. You are solely responsible for how you interpret and use information obtained from this website.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, lonare.com disclaims liability for any loss, damage, claim, or legal issue arising from the use of the website, its content, third-party services, or interactions between users.

Changes to this policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically to reflect legal, technical, or operational changes. Updates take effect immediately upon publication. Continued use of the website constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
