Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Renato Queiroga ("we", "us", "our") handles information when you visit renatoqueirog.com (the "Site"). By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.

1. Who we are

Renato Queiroga is an independently operated website that publishes reflections and courses on personal growth, neuroscience, learning, and technology. It is not the manufacturer, seller, publisher, or official representative of any third-party item mentioned on the Site.

2. Information we collect

We do not require you to create an account, and we do not collect names, addresses, or payment information on this Site. We may collect limited technical information automatically, such as:

• Browser type, device type, and approximate region (country level).
• Pages visited and time spent on the Site.
• Referring URL, if you arrived from a search engine or another site.

If you contact us voluntarily (for example, by Instagram message), we receive whatever information you choose to send.

3. Cookies and analytics

The Site uses your browser's local storage (not cookies) to remember your theme preference (light or dark mode). We do not use cookies for advertising or cross-site tracking. You can clear local storage at any time in your browser settings.

4. Local storage

The Site uses your browser's local storage to remember your theme preference, which posts you have already opened, and your progress in the text-based courses. This information stays on your device and is not transmitted to us.

5. Affiliate links and third parties

Some links on the Site are affiliate links. When you click one, you leave Renato Queiroga and go to a third-party website (for example, a course sales page or a checkout page operated by Hotmart). That third party has its own privacy policy and terms, which we do not control. We may receive a commission if you purchase through a qualifying link, at no additional cost to you.

We do not receive your payment details, and we do not know your identity when you purchase through an affiliate link. The seller and the payment processor handle your order directly.

6. Store and payments

The Site also operates a store (/loja/) where digital products are sold directly. Payments in the store are processed by Stripe. Stripe's own terms and privacy policy apply to the payment step. We do not store your card details on our servers.

7. How we use information

• To operate and improve the Site.
• To understand which pages are useful to readers.
• To respond to messages you send us voluntarily.
• To comply with legal obligations.

8. Sharing of information

We do not sell personal information. We may share aggregated, non-identifying data with service providers that help us host the Site. We may disclose information if required by law or to protect our rights.

9. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal information about you. Because we collect very little, most requests can be handled by explaining what is collected.

10. Children

The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them. If you believe a child has provided information, contact us through the channel listed in Section 12 and we will address it.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The date at the top of the page indicates the latest version. Continued use of the Site after changes means you accept the updated policy.
