Privacy Notice

Small Wins Habits Starter™

Publication / effective date: 1 November 2026. Last updated: 1 November 2026.

1 Who is responsible for your information

Small Wins Habits Starter™ is provided by Gail Parata, sole trader, creator of Small Wins Big Shifts™, based in New Zealand. Gail is responsible for your personal information and is your privacy contact at dailyhabitsystem26@gmail.com. This notice explains what information is collected, where it comes from, how it is used and your rights.

2 Information we collect and why

Account and purchase information: your email address and authentication details are used to create your account, sign you in and match your account to your purchase. Stan collects checkout information separately. Gail checks completed orders and any receipt you supply; the Starter records account/purchase email, order reference where supplied, access status, activation/revocation times and Admin verification notes, action history and identifiers. We use these details to verify purchases, activate and manage access, provide support and handle refunds. An account email and enough information to verify your purchase are needed before paid access can be provided.

Your optional entries: the four habits, completion ticks, comments, date and reflection you choose to record are stored to provide the Starter and save your progress. You decide what to write. Avoid recording other people’s personal information or sensitive details that are not needed for your own habit practice.

Messages you send us: to answer questions and provide support.

Technical information and diagnostics: website infrastructure and diagnostic services may process IP addresses, browser and device details, usage events and error information to operate the service, maintain security and investigate problems.

Payment card details: entered at the Stan Store checkout and processed by the payment provider connected to that checkout. We do not receive or store your card details.

3 Legal basis

We use your information to provide and administer your purchase, keep the system secure, maintain and improve its operation and meet legal obligations. Where applicable law requires a legal basis, we rely on performance of our contract with you, legitimate interests in operating a secure service, legal obligations or consent, as appropriate. We do not send marketing emails without your consent. Purchase, access and essential service messages are not marketing emails.

4 Who we share it with

Stan Store provides our storefront and checkout. Its connected payment provider processes payments. Gail uses purchase information for the purposes described in section 2 and verifies purchases before granting Starter access manually. Purchase verification and online activation are manual; a purchase does not automatically activate an account.

Lovable hosts the website and provides Lovable Cloud account, database, private resource storage and technical infrastructure.

Google (Gmail), when you email us for support; account confirmation and password-reset messages use the account service.

Google Fonts and website image delivery, for fonts and images; YouTube (Google), for embedded video playback; Amazon, separately if you choose its optional book links.

Professional advisers (such as accountants or lawyers) where necessary and authorities where required by law.

We do not sell your personal information.

5 Overseas storage and transfers

Account, entry and technical information may be handled outside New Zealand by infrastructure providers. We take reasonable steps to protect information handled by service providers and meet obligations under New Zealand privacy law.

6 Who can see your entries

Your saved habits and reflections are private to your account and are not displayed in Gail’s Admin dashboard.

7 How long we keep it and deletion

We keep your account and saved entries while your account remains open so the system can save your progress. Inactivity alone does not end your access. To close your account or delete your entries, email dailyhabitsystem26@gmail.com. We will verify your identity before acting, then confirm what has been removed and anything we must retain for tax, accounting or legal purposes. Closing your account ends access through that account, and deleted entries may not be recoverable. Copies may remain in providers’ routine backups until those backups expire or are overwritten.

Revoking Starter access does not delete your account or saved entries.

Reset Day clears the selected day’s information as described in its confirmation message and saves that change to your account; it does not delete your whole account or other saved days. Starting a new cycle permanently deletes the saved days in your completed cycle, as described in its confirmation message. Export and check the PDFs you want to keep before confirming either action. Downloaded PDFs and copies on other devices are outside the Starter’s control.

Purchase records are kept for as long as required for tax, accounting and legal purposes (in New Zealand, generally seven years). Access records are kept for as long as needed to administer your ongoing purchase entitlement and resolve disputes. Stan Store and its payment provider keep their own records under their policies. Information no longer needed is deleted or anonymised.

8 Your rights and request turnaround

Under the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020, you can request access to or correction of your personal information — both your account and purchase details and the entries stored with your account. Email dailyhabitsystem26@gmail.com; we may verify your identity first. We will respond as soon as reasonably practicable and no later than 20 working days, unless the law allows an extension (we will explain the reason and new timeframe). If you are unsatisfied with our response, you can complain to the New Zealand Office of the Privacy Commissioner at https://www.privacy.org.nz. If you live outside New Zealand, rights under your local law may also apply.

9 Security and breach procedures

We maintain reasonable technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal information, including encrypted SSL/TLS connections, user-specific data isolation controls, and password hashing by our sign-in provider. In the unlikely event of a security incident or privacy breach that is determined to cause (or be likely to cause) serious harm, we will notify affected individuals and the New Zealand Privacy Commissioner in accordance with statutory requirements under the Privacy Act 2020. No online service can guarantee 100% security.

10 Browser storage cookies and analytics

Essential browser storage keeps you signed in. Website infrastructure uses browser storage, cookies and diagnostic services that may process technical and usage information. The Starter saves entries to your account over an internet connection; downloaded PDFs are separate copies.

The system uses YouTube’s privacy-enhanced player for embedded videos. Playing a video connects your browser to YouTube, which may receive technical information and process information under its own policies. Privacy-enhanced mode does not make playback anonymous or guarantee that no cookies or other storage will be used.

11 Changes and contact

We may update this notice from time to time. The latest version will always show its last-updated date at the top. For any privacy questions or requests, contact dailyhabitsystem26@gmail.com.
