Privacy Policy for Weight Loss with Ken

Effective Date: October 10, 2025

At Weight Loss with Ken, operated by Ken Porter, we are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring transparency in how we handle your personal information.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your data when you interact with our website (weightlosswithken.com or any affiliated domains), subscribe to our newsletter, download resources like our paid and free guides, or engage with our content on platforms like Medium.

By using our services, you agree to the terms of this policy.

If you have questions or concerns, contact us at [your email address, e.g., ken@weightlosswithken.com].

1. Information We Collect

We collect information to provide and improve our services, such as delivering personalized weight loss tips and resources. The types of information include:

Personal Information

  • Provided by You: When you sign up for our newsletter, download a free guide, make a purchase (e.g., “The Step Stack System”), or contact us, we may collect your name, email address, and any other details you voluntarily provide (e.g., preferences or feedback).

  • Automatically Collected: Through tools like Google Analytics or Systeme.io, we may collect device information (e.g., IP address, browser type), usage data (e.g., pages visited, time spent), and referral sources.

Non-Personal Information

  • Cookies and Tracking Technologies: We use cookies (small data files stored on your device) for functionality, analytics, and personalized content. This includes session cookies (temporary) and persistent cookies (longer-lasting). Third-party services (e.g., affiliates like ClickBank or email providers like Systeme.io) may also use cookies to track interactions.

  • Aggregate Data: We collect anonymized data for trends and improvements, such as total newsletter opens or website visits.

We do not collect sensitive information (e.g., health data beyond what you share voluntarily) unless explicitly provided, and we advise against sharing medical details.

2. How We Use Your Information

Your data helps us deliver value through our gym-free weight loss content. Specifically:

  • To send newsletters, tips, and resources (e.g., weekly emails with protein hacks or fiber swaps).

  • To personalize content and recommendations based on your interests.

  • To analyze usage and improve our services (e.g., via analytics tools).

  • For marketing, including affiliate promotions (e.g., The Smoothie Diet), where we may earn commissions.

  • To communicate with you, respond to inquiries, or provide support.

We process data based on your consent (e.g., newsletter signup), legitimate interests (e.g., site improvements), or contractual necessity (e.g., delivering downloads).

3. Sharing Your Information

We do not sell your personal data. However, we may share it with:

  • Service Providers: Third parties like Systeme.io (for email and funnels), Medium (for content hosting), Google Analytics (for insights), or ClickBank (for affiliate tracking). These providers are bound by confidentiality and use data only for our services.

  • Affiliates and Partners: When you click affiliate links (e.g., to The Smoothie Diet), the vendor may collect your data under their own policy—we recommend reviewing theirs.

  • Legal Requirements: If required by law, such as subpoenas or to protect our rights.

  • Business Transfers: In case of a merger or sale, your data may be transferred.

4. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your information, including encryption (e.g., via HTTPS), access controls, and secure servers through our providers (e.g., Systeme.io).

However, no system is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute protection. Report any suspected breaches to us immediately.

5. Your Rights and Choices

You control your data:

  • Access/Update/Delete: Email us to request your data, corrections, or deletion (subject to legal obligations).

  • Opt-Out: Unsubscribe from newsletters via the link in any email. You can also manage cookies through your browser settings (e.g., block third-party cookies).

  • Do Not Track: We do not respond to browser DNT signals but respect opt-outs.

  • California Residents (CCPA): You have rights to know, delete, and opt-out of data sales (we don’t sell data).

  • EU Residents (GDPR): You have rights to access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, and portability. We process data with your consent or for legitimate interests.

6. Children's Privacy

Our services are not intended for children under 13 (or 16 in some jurisdictions). We do not knowingly collect data from minors—if we discover such, we will delete it.

7. Third-Party Links

Our site, newsletters, and Medium posts may link to external sites (e.g., affiliates). We are not responsible for their privacy practices—review their policies.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy periodically. Changes will be posted here with a revised effective date. Continued use after changes implies acceptance. For major updates, we’ll notify via email.
