Welcome to Budgeting Together. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you purchase our digital products (Google Sheets and Excel templates) from budgetingtogether.com.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information necessary to process your order and deliver your digital products. This includes:

• Personal Information: Name, email address, and billing address provided during checkout.
• Payment Information: We do not store your credit card details directly. All transactions are processed through secure third-party payment gateways (e.g., Stripe, PayPal, Shopify Payments).
• Usage Data: Information on how you access our website, including your IP address, browser type, and device information, collected via cookies or analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics).

3. Google Sheets & Data Privacy (Important)

We sell templates that function within the Google Sheets ecosystem. It is important that you understand how your data is handled when using our products:

• The "Force Copy" Link: When you click the link to access your purchase, Google will prompt you to "Make a copy" of the sheet.
• Your Data is Yours: Once you make a copy, that spreadsheet lives solely in your personal Google Drive.
• No Access: Budgeting Together does not have access to your copy of the sheet. We cannot see, view, or edit the data you enter into your spreadsheet.
• Google’s Policy: Your use of the sheet is governed by Google’s own Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

4. How We Use Your Information

We use your data for the following purposes:

• To deliver the digital download link to your email address.
• To process your payment and prevent fraud.
• To provide customer support if you have issues with the template.
• To send you product updates, new template announcements, or newsletters (only if you have opted in).

• Payment Processors: To handle secure billing.
• Email Service Providers: To send your order confirmation and download links.
• Website Hosts: To ensure our website runs smoothly.

6. Cookies
