Payments
Payments are processed using third-party payment-service providers, including WooPayments and its underlying payment-processing services.
LeanTPS™ does not need to receive or store a customer’s complete payment-card number to administer the Digital Academy. Payment providers may collect and process payment, fraud-prevention, authentication, and transaction information according to their own legal and privacy obligations.
LeanTPS™ may receive transaction information necessary to administer an order, such as payment status, transaction identifiers, payment method information, refunds, disputes, and related records.
Service Providers
LeanTPS™ uses service providers to support website hosting, website operation, Digital Academy functionality, ecommerce, payment processing, email delivery, security, analytics, and other business functions.
Personal information may be processed by these providers where reasonably necessary to provide their services to LeanTPS™. LeanTPS™ remains responsible for personal information under its control and takes reasonable measures appropriate to the nature of the service and information involved.
Cookies and Website Technologies
The LeanTPS™ website may use cookies and similar technologies required for website operation, ecommerce functionality, account sessions, security, preferences, analytics, and performance.
Some cookies are necessary for features such as shopping carts, checkout, account authentication, and website security. Other technologies may support analytics or site improvement.
Browser settings may allow you to restrict or delete cookies; however, disabling necessary cookies may prevent parts of the website, checkout, or Digital Academy from functioning correctly.
Consent
By providing personal information for a purchase, account, certification activity, inquiry, or other identified purpose, you consent to its collection, use, and disclosure for those purposes, subject to applicable law.
Where consent is required for an optional or secondary purpose, LeanTPS™ will seek appropriate consent and will not make unnecessary secondary uses a condition of providing the purchased program or service.
Retention
LeanTPS™ retains personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected and to meet applicable business, tax, accounting, certification, dispute-resolution, security, and legal requirements.
Information that is no longer required will be deleted, destroyed, or anonymized as appropriate.
Data Security
LeanTPS™ uses reasonable administrative and technical safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the personal information under its control.
Safeguards may include controlled administrative access, account authentication, two-factor authentication for privileged systems, website security controls, malware and firewall protection, secure hosting, backups, and payment processing through specialized providers.
No method of electronic transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
