This page is maintained by Joel Adam Smith and explains what information is collected when you use this site or buy the Decision Handoff Memo.
Who we are
This site is operated by Joel Adam Smith, an independent advisor working with owner led businesses. If you have any question about this policy, email hello@joeladamsmith.com.
What we collect
- Information you give us. Your name, email address and the answers you submit in the Decision Handoff questionnaire.
- Payment information. Payments are handled by our payment processor. We receive confirmation of the transaction and basic billing details, never your full card number.
- Basic usage data. Standard technical information such as browser type, device and pages viewed, used to keep the site working.
How we use it
- To write and deliver the memo you purchased.
- To provide support and process refunds.
- To send you occasional emails about related work, if you opt in.
We do not sell your information, and we do not share it for advertising.
Who we share it with
We use a small number of service providers to run this business, including a payment processor, an email provider and website hosting. They only process your information on our instructions. We may also disclose information where the law requires it.
How long we keep it
Questionnaire answers and memo records are kept for as long as needed to deliver and support your purchase, and to meet accounting obligations. You can ask us to delete your information at any time.
Your choices
You can ask for a copy of the information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. Email us and we will respond within a reasonable time. You can unsubscribe from emails at any time using the link in any email.
Cookies
This site uses only the cookies needed to make it function. If we add analytics in future, this page will be updated first.
