Strong Men Ask for Help
Privacy Policy
Effective Date: October 27, 2026
1. Introduction
Strong Men Ask for Help (“SMAFH,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you share with us.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect information when you visit our website, express interest in our programs, purchase educational products, schedule private coaching sessions, or participate in SMAFH activities.
By using our services, you acknowledge the practices described in this policy.
2. Information We Collect
Depending on how you interact with SMAFH, we may collect:
- Your name and email address.
- Your telephone number, when voluntarily provided.
- Information submitted through course interest forms or facilitator-training inquiries.
- Relevant professional experience voluntarily shared through facilitator interest forms.
- Appointment scheduling information.
- Information you voluntarily provide when requesting coaching or educational support.
- Purchase and transaction details.
- Communications you send to us.
- Basic technical information necessary for website security and functionality.
We encourage you not to submit highly sensitive personal, medical, or financial information through general website forms.
3. How We Use Your Information
We may use the information we collect to:
- Respond to inquiries and requests.
- Maintain course and facilitator-training interest lists.
- Send updates that you have requested or consented to receive.
- Schedule and administer coaching appointments.
- Process purchases and provide access to educational materials.
- Deliver customer support.
- Maintain and improve our website and services.
- Protect against fraud, misuse, or unauthorized access.
- Comply with applicable legal obligations.
We do not sell your personal information.
4. Email Communications and Consent
When you subscribe to a course interest list, request facilitator-training updates, or voluntarily join an SMAFH email program, we may send communications related to that request.
Where required, we will obtain your consent before sending promotional communications.
Marketing emails will provide a way to unsubscribe. You may also request removal from an interest list by contacting hello@smafh.store.
Unsubscribing from marketing emails does not necessarily stop essential communications about purchases, scheduled appointments, or services you have requested.
5. Coaching Appointments and Personal Information
SMAFH offers educational coaching and personal-development support. These services are not psychotherapy, medical treatment, or emergency mental-health services.
Information you voluntarily provide during scheduling or coaching inquiries is used to prepare for and administer the services you request.
We seek to limit access to personal information to individuals and service providers who reasonably need it for authorized business purposes.
SMAFH does not represent that its coaching communications are protected by the same legal confidentiality privileges that may apply to licensed clinical treatment.
6. Payments and Third-Party Services
SMAFH may use third-party platforms to operate its website, schedule appointments, process payments, host educational content, and deliver communications.
These services may include Stan Store, Stripe, Google services, Lovable, and an email delivery provider selected for our website.
Payment information is processed through the applicable payment provider. SMAFH does not need to receive or store complete payment-card numbers to administer purchases.
Third-party providers may process information under their own privacy policies and contractual terms.
7. Website Analytics, Cookies, and Technical Information
Our website may use technical tools necessary for normal operation, security, and performance.
We do not intend to activate optional visitor-tracking or advertising analytics for the initial website launch without first reviewing the tools and updating our disclosures as appropriate.
If optional analytics, advertising technologies, or additional cookies are introduced, this policy and any necessary consent mechanisms will be reviewed.
8. Information Sharing
We may share personal information with service providers when reasonably necessary to deliver the services you request.
We may also disclose information when required by applicable law, to respond to lawful requests, to protect rights and safety, or to investigate suspected fraud or misuse.
We do not sell personal information to advertisers or data brokers.
9. Data Security
We take reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.
However, no internet-based service or electronic storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.
We encourage users to avoid sending unnecessary sensitive information through ordinary email or general website forms.
10. Data Retention
We retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including administering services, maintaining requested communications, resolving disputes, and meeting legal or financial recordkeeping obligations.
When information is no longer needed, we will take reasonable steps to delete, de-identify, or securely dispose of it, subject to applicable legal requirements and service-provider capabilities.
11. Your Privacy Choices and Requests
You may contact SMAFH to request:
- Access to personal information we maintain about you.
- Correction of inaccurate information.
- Deletion of information, subject to applicable exceptions.
- Removal from an interest list.
- Withdrawal of consent for optional marketing communications.
We will review and respond to requests in accordance with applicable law.
To make a request, email hello@smafh.store.
12. Children's Privacy and Policy Updates
SMAFH services are intended for adults and are not directed toward children under 18.
We do not knowingly solicit personal information from children through our coaching, course enrollment, or facilitator interest forms.
We may update this Privacy Policy as our services, technologies, or legal obligations change. Material changes will be reflected in an updated policy posted on our website, with a revised effective date where appropriate.
