Privacy
HowToFrench is run by HG Services (Hadrien Grosbois, sole trader, SIRET 920 273 919 00042, Paris, France), which is responsible for your data. This page explains what we collect and why.
What we keep
Your email address, the page you signed up from and the date you signed up. If you take the level quiz: your first name, phone number, country and quiz result, so we can contact you about your level and lessons (by email, phone or WhatsApp). Your country is estimated from your connection; we never read anything else from your device.
Why
To give you access to the free PDFs, and to answer you if you book a lesson.
Payments
When you pay for a lesson, your card details go straight to our payment provider Stripe. We never see or store them; we only keep what is needed for invoicing (name, email, amount, date).
YouTube videos
Videos on resource pages are hosted by YouTube. Nothing is loaded from YouTube until you press play; we then use YouTube's privacy-enhanced mode (youtube-nocookie.com), and YouTube's own privacy policy applies to what you watch.
