Effective Date: July 15, 2025



This Privacy Policy sets forth the principles under which Compounding Research, a service owned and operated by Robin Geers (“we,” “us,” or “our”), processes personal data in connection with your use of our website, subscription-based content, and related services (collectively, the “Service”). By accessing the Service or subscribing to any of its offerings, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and accepted the terms of this Privacy Policy in full.

We are firmly committed to protecting your personal data and to ensuring transparency in how we collect, use, store, and disclose it. All processing activities are conducted in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (EU Regulation 2016/679, “GDPR”) and applicable data protection laws in Belgium and the European Union.



  1. Scope of Data Collection



We collect only the data strictly necessary to provide and support the Service. This includes your name, email address, billing and payment information, login credentials, and information related to your use of the Service, including IP address, device type, and interaction logs. Should you contact us for support, we will also retain the content of such communications.

We do not collect or process sensitive categories of personal data such as information revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, or health data.



  1. Purpose and Legal Basis for Processing



The personal data we collect is processed exclusively for legitimate and specific purposes. These purposes include the fulfillment of contractual obligations associated with your subscription, the administration of your user account, the provision of customer support, the delivery of content and service updates, and the analysis and improvement of service performance.

Where processing is not strictly necessary for the execution of the contract, it is conducted on the basis of your explicit consent or our legitimate interest in operating a secure and efficient platform. In certain cases, we may also process your data to comply with legal obligations, including accounting and regulatory reporting requirements.

We do not engage in profiling or automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects on individuals.



  1. Data Storage and Security



All personal data is stored on secure servers located within the European Economic Area. We implement and maintain appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data against unauthorized access, accidental loss, destruction, or disclosure. These measures include, but are not limited to, SSL encryption, secure password protocols, access controls, and continuous monitoring of our systems and infrastructure.

Only individuals with a legitimate operational need have access to your personal data, and they are bound by strict confidentiality obligations.



  1. Use of Third Parties and Data Sharing



We do not sell, rent, or otherwise commercially disclose your personal data to third parties.



However, we may share your data with carefully selected service providers that support our operations, including payment processors, cloud hosting services, email delivery platforms, and website analytics tools. All such third parties are contractually bound to act in accordance with applicable data protection laws and may only process your data for purposes explicitly instructed by us.

In the event of a legal obligation, court order, or regulatory request, we may disclose your personal data to competent authorities, but only to the extent required by law.



  1. Data Retention



We retain your personal data only for as long as is strictly necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, or to comply with legal obligations.

Specifically, billing and transaction records are retained for a minimum of seven (7) years in accordance with Belgian tax and accounting law. User account information is retained for the duration of your subscription and may be anonymized or securely deleted upon termination, unless retention is otherwise required by law or legitimate business purposes.





  1. Your Rights under the GDPR



As a data subject under the GDPR, you have the right to request access to your personal data, to rectify inaccurate or outdated information, to request the erasure of your data under certain circumstances, to restrict or object to particular forms of processing, and to obtain a portable copy of your data in a machine-readable format.

You may exercise these rights at any time by contacting us at [email protected]. We will respond to all requests in accordance with the timeframes and procedures required by applicable law.

If you believe that your data has been processed unlawfully, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Belgian Data Protection Authority (Gegevensbeschermingsautoriteit).



  1. International Transfers



We do not knowingly transfer your personal data outside the European Economic Area unless appropriate safeguards are in place, such as Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission. Where such transfers are necessary, they will be conducted in full compliance with applicable data protection requirements.



  1. Cookies and Tracking Technologies



Our website uses privacy-friendly, non-invasive analytics tools that do not rely on traditional tracking cookies. We do not use third-party advertising networks, profiling scripts, or behavioral tracking tools. For more information about how we handle cookies and analytics data, please refer to our Cookie Policy.



  1. Protection of Minors



The Service is not intended for use by individuals under the age of eighteen (18). We do not knowingly collect or process data from minors. If we become aware that personal data has been submitted by a minor without verified parental consent, such data will be deleted without delay.



  1. Updates to This Policy



We reserve the right to revise this Privacy Policy at any time, in order to reflect changes to our data processing practices, legal obligations, or the scope of the Service. Any material changes will be communicated to you in advance by email. Continued use of the Service following such notice shall constitute your acceptance of the revised policy.

We encourage you to review this page periodically to remain informed of how your data is handled.
