Privacy Policy

This privacy policy explains how 100 Business Blueprints LLC handles information in connection with 100businessblueprints.com. Contact us at info@100businessblueprints.com with privacy questions or requests.

Effective date: October 29, 2026

Privacy Policy Scope and Planned Features

100 Business Blueprints provides digital educational resources through this website. We use Google Analytics to understand website traffic. Advertising pixels and email signup tools are planned. This policy describes browsing, communications, WordPress and Simple Membership account functions, Stripe checkout, and Google Analytics, and does not represent that those planned tools are already active. We will update this notice with the services, data uses, and choices that apply before introducing them, and obtain consent where required.

Information you provide

If you email us, we receive your email address, any name you provide, and the content and attachments you send. We use this information to answer questions, handle support or privacy requests, and keep a record of our messages. Do not send passwords, full payment-card numbers, government identification numbers, or sensitive client information.

When you register for membership, WordPress and the Simple Membership plugin store your username, email address, name and other profile information you provide, along with membership level, account status, registration and access-start dates, and expiration information. We use these records to provide and manage paid access, authenticate sign-ins, handle account support, and enforce membership expiration. Authorized administrators can access account records as needed to administer the site. A password-reset request may include your IP address in the reset email.

Payments through Stripe

Our checkout uses Stripe to process payments. Payment details entered in Stripe checkout are handled by Stripe. We receive transaction records needed to confirm payment and provide access, such as the purchaser’s name and email address, product, amount, payment status, date, and transaction identifiers. We use these records for order fulfillment, support, accounting, and handling refunds or disputes. Do not send payment-card details to us by email.

Stripe processes payment, contact, transaction, device, and connection information for payment services, security, fraud prevention, and other purposes described in its Privacy Policy. Stripe may use cookies or similar technologies in checkout. Stripe and relevant payment providers process information under their own applicable notices.

Google Analytics and Search Console

We use Google Analytics, connected through Site Kit by Google, to understand visits and improve this website. Analytics can process page addresses, referral sources, browser and device information, cookie identifiers, approximate location, and interactions such as clicks or downloads. Google processes connection information, including IP addresses; Google states that Google Analytics does not log or store IP addresses. We use reports to understand how people find and use our content.

Analytics uses cookies. You can manage cookies through your browser and use Google’s Analytics opt-out browser add-on where supported. Learn more about how Google uses information from sites that use its services. We also use Google Search Console to review search performance and indexing information. These tools do not give us your Google account password.

Technical information

Operating and hosting the website involves processing connection information such as IP address, browser and device information, requested pages, request times, and referring pages when your browser sends them. This information supports delivery of the site, troubleshooting, security, and abuse prevention. Hosting and service providers may keep operational logs for these purposes.

Cookies and saved-business preferences

Simple Membership uses necessary cookies to recognize member sessions and support access to protected content. Blocking these cookies may prevent member sign-in or access.

WordPress uses cookies for login and related site functions. A temporary login-page cookie tests browser support and is discarded when the browser closes. Standard login cookies last two days, or two weeks when “Remember Me” is selected; display-preference cookies can last a year. Logging out removes login cookies. An editing cookie identifying a recently edited post can last one day. Browser settings and site configuration can affect these periods.

The “Save This Business” feature uses browser local storage to remember saved-business selections on that browser. The feature does not by itself create an account or send the selection to us. Local storage can remain until you clear site data; selecting remove changes the saved selection. Browser privacy settings may prevent this feature from working.

You can use browser controls to manage or clear cookies and local storage. Blocking necessary cookies may affect login or other functions. Clearing one browser does not clear data on another device. Browser controls alone may not provide all choices required for future advertising tools; any additional controls will be explained when those tools are introduced.

Comments and uploads, where available

If a comment form is available and you submit a comment, WordPress collects the fields shown in the form together with your IP address and browser information to help moderate comments and detect abuse. Approved comments may be public. If Gravatar is enabled for the commenting feature, a hash of your email address may be sent to that service and your profile image may appear with your comment; see Automattic’s privacy policy. Do not post information you intend to keep private. If you are permitted to upload images, remove embedded location information before uploading because others may be able to extract it.

Service providers and disclosures

Hosting, website administration, and email providers process information needed to deliver their services. We may disclose relevant information when required by law, to respond to lawful requests, protect rights and security, or address fraud or abuse. Stripe processes checkout information as described above. WordPress and Simple Membership support account management on our website. The recipients and processing associated with future advertising or mailing-list services will be disclosed before those services are introduced.

Links and embedded content

External links take you to independently operated sites whose privacy policies apply to your visits. If a page includes externally hosted content such as a video, loading or interacting with it can allow its provider to receive your IP address, device details, and interaction information, and use cookies under that provider’s practices. A link or embed does not mean we control the other provider.

How long we keep information and how we protect it

How long we keep information depends on what it is and why we need it: support correspondence is kept while needed to address the issue and related recordkeeping; account information is kept while needed for access and administration; purchase and transaction records are kept as needed for accounting, tax obligations, refunds, and disputes; technical logs and backups follow operational retention cycles. Information may be retained longer for legal obligations, security, or disputes. Where comments are enabled, comments and related metadata may remain until removed. Deletion requests are subject to these necessary exceptions and applicable law.

No website, email system, or storage method can guarantee absolute security. Please protect your account credentials and contact us if you suspect unauthorized access.

Your Privacy Policy Choices and Requests

Depending on where you live and which laws apply, you may have rights to access, correct, obtain a copy of, delete, or restrict certain uses of your information, or withdraw consent. Email info@100businessblueprints.com and describe your request. We may ask for enough information to confirm your identity and that you have the right to make the request. We will respond as required by applicable law and explain any applicable exceptions. You may also have the right to complain to a privacy regulator.

For an existing WordPress account, available profile controls may let you view and update information. Planned marketing email signups will include appropriate notices and an unsubscribe method when introduced; sending a support email is not a request to join a marketing list.

Children

The site and paid products are intended for adults, not children under 13. We do not knowingly seek personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided such information, contact us so we can investigate and take appropriate action.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We will post updates with a revised effective date and provide additional notice or obtain consent when required. New tools or a new purpose for using existing information will be addressed before that processing begins. For questions about the current setup, email info@100businessblueprints.com.
