4. Legal Bases for Processing (GDPR)

For individuals in the European Economic Area, we rely on one or more of the following lawful bases:

• Consent: You have given clear consent for specific purposes.

• Contract: Processing is necessary to perform a contract or to take steps at your request before entering a contract.

• Legitimate Interests: Processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests and those interests are not overridden by your rights.

• Legal Obligation: Processing is necessary to comply with applicable laws and regulations.

5. Cookies, Pixels, and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies, pixels, and similar technologies to recognize your browser or device, improve site performance, analyze traffic, and tailor marketing. You may disable cookies through your browser settings; however, the Services may not function properly without them.

6. Facebook and Other Advertising Partners

We use Facebook Pixel, Custom Audiences, and similar tools to:

• Measure ad performance and attribution

• Build look-alike audiences

• Deliver personalized advertisements based on your interests and interactions with our site

Facebook may combine data from our site with other sources to serve targeted ads. You may opt out of Facebook’s behavioral advertising through your Facebook settings or via the Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out portal.

7. Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only when necessary:

• Service Providers: Payment processors, email service providers, cloud-hosting services, analytics providers, and ad networks that process data on our behalf under contractual confidentiality obligations.

• Business Transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, or asset sale.

• Legal Requirements: When required to comply with a subpoena, court order, or other legal process, or to protect rights, property, or safety.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes outlined in this Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

9. Security

We employ industry-standard administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. No security system is impenetrable, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. International Transfers

Your information may be transferred to, and maintained on, servers located outside your province, state, or country. We take steps to ensure adequate safeguards are in place, such as Standard Contractual Clauses for transfers from the EEA or UK.

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to:

• Access, correct, or delete your personal information

• Restrict or object to certain processing

• Withdraw consent at any time (processing prior to withdrawal remains lawful)

• Port your data to another provider

• Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (EEA) or privacy regulator (Canada: Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada)

You can exercise these rights by contacting us using the information below. We will respond within statutory deadlines.

12. Third-Party Links

The Services may contain links to third-party websites or applications not controlled by us. We are not responsible for their privacy practices. Please review their policies before providing personal information.

13. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. Any material changes will be posted on this page with a revised “Last updated” date. Continued use of the Services after changes become effective signifies acceptance of the revised Policy.

Affiliate Policy

Here at Discourse in Magic we believe in transparency and openness with everything we do, especially monetization. All over this website there are and will continue to be affiliate links, which means that if  you buy something from one of our links it’s possible we get a commission for it.  Our goal with this website is to help educate you on the possibilities, opportunities, and ideas for magicians but please understand we am doing this as a for-profit business.

Once again, we will try our best to make it clear if any links we attach are affiliate links, but it’s a good assumption that links to specific products from our site are most likely an affiliate link. Once again, that means we get a commission for your purchase at no extra cost to you! Please note that I have not been given any free products, services or anything else by these companies in exchange for mentioning them on the site. The only consideration is in the form of affiliate commissions.

If you have any questions regarding the above, please do not hesitate to contact us by using the about page. It can be accessed on the menu above.

Discourse in Magic is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to amazon.com.

In addition, Discourse in Magic is a participant in Convertkit, Themify and Dreamhost affiliates.

We wish you only success on your magic journey!

Good luck, and stay magical!
