Privacy Policy

This is what learn.shabsmodel.com collects, why, and what happens to it. The short version: we only keep what we need to run your calls, we don't sell anything, and there are no ads or trackers.

What we collect

• Your account: name, email, birthday, your Instagram handle if you add it, and your password (stored only as a one-way hash, so nobody can read it).
• Your bookings: the times you book, your answers to the booking questions, and whether you've paid.
• Your photo: the photo you add when you book.
• Messages between you and Shabs.
• Reviews, if you leave one after a call: your star rating and anything you write. It only appears on the site if you tick the box allowing it, and then only with your first name (plus a last initial if you're 18 or over). You can edit or remove it from your dashboard at any time.
• Notifications: if you turn them on, a technical address from your browser so we can send them.
• Basic server logs, such as IP addresses, used to keep the site secure and stop abuse.

Payments go through Stripe. Your card details go to Stripe, never to us; we only learn whether a payment went through. Stripe's own privacy policy covers what they do.

Why

• To run your calls: booking, reminders, payment and the call link.
• Your birthday and photo let Shabs know who he's talking to before your call.
• Your answers help Shabs prepare for your call.
• We email you about your bookings: confirmations, payments, reminders and messages you haven't read. You can turn off reminders and message emails in your dashboard. Emails are sent through Resend.

Who can see it

Shabs, and the people who build and host the site (Novaris). Nobody else, except Stripe for payments. We don't sell or rent your information, we don't show ads, and there are no analytics trackers on the site.

How long we keep it

• Photos are deleted automatically 30 days after your call. If Shabs declines a booking, its photo is deleted straight away.
• Your account, bookings and messages are kept until you ask us to delete them. After that we delete them within 30 days, except records of payments that we may need to keep for tax.

Your choices

You can see and change your details in your dashboard. To get a copy of your data or have your account deleted, message Shabs from your dashboard, email [email protected], or find him on Instagram at @shabs.atx. You can turn notifications off at any time.

Young people

The site isn't for anyone under 13, and if we learn that someone under 13 has an account, we delete it and their information. If you're under 18, please get a parent or guardian's OK before booking. Parents can ask us to see or delete their child's information at any time.

Security

The site only works over an encrypted connection, passwords are hashed, and photos can only be opened by you and Shabs. No system is perfect, though. If something ever goes wrong with your data, we'll tell you.

Changes

If we change this policy, we'll update the date at the top, and tell you on the site if the change is a big one.
