Privacy Policy
Effective May 10, 2026 · Last updated May 10, 2026
This page explains, in plain language, what data Oppority collects, why we collect it, who else sees it, and how you control it. We have written this without legal jargon on purpose. If you ever want a longer or formal version, email us and we will send one.
Who we are
Oppority is a one-person consultancy run by Jay Shende, based in India. We do business globally with online course creators and coaches. Contact: jay@oppority.com.
What data we collect
If you visit oppority.com, we collect anonymous, cookieless web analytics through Cloudflare (page views, country, no personal identifiers, no profiling). If you email us or fill in any of our forms, we collect what you send: your name, email, business details, and the contents of your messages. If you become a paying client, we additionally process the data needed to deliver your engagement (your brand name, competitors, the AI engines we test against on your behalf, and the resulting measurement data).
Why we collect it
Three reasons. (1) To run the website. (2) To respond to your enquiries and deliver the work you have contracted us for. (3) For paying clients, to maintain accurate records as required by tax law. We do not collect data for advertising, profiling, or resale.
Who else sees it
Only the third parties that are necessary to operate. The full list lives in our compliance documentation, but in short: Cloudflare (hosting and DNS), GoDaddy (email transport), the AI engines we query on your behalf (Google Gemini, OpenAI, Anthropic, Perplexity), and Lemon Squeezy (if you become a paying client, for invoicing). We do not sell, rent, or share your data with anyone else, ever.
How long we keep it
If we have only ever cold-emailed you, we keep your record for 12 months from the last contact, then auto-delete. If you have replied to us, we keep the conversation for 24 months. If you become a paying client, we keep the engagement records for 7 years (Indian tax-law requirement), then anonymise.
Your rights
You can ask us, at any time, for any of: (a) a copy of all data we hold about you, (b) correction of anything wrong, (c) deletion of your record, (d) confirmation that we will stop emailing you. Email jay@oppority.com with the request. We will respond within 30 days, usually within 72 hours.
Cold email opt-out
If you received a cold email from us and do not want another, simply reply with the word 'remove' and we will delete you from our list and add your address to a permanent suppression list so we never re-import you.
Lawful basis (for EU and UK readers)
For cold outreach to named B2B individuals at companies, we rely on legitimate interest under Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Our balancing assessment: low-volume, individually-researched, professionally-relevant outreach to people whose business clearly benefits from our service. You may object at any time and we will stop immediately.
International transfers
Some of our subprocessors are based in the United States (Cloudflare, Google AI, Lemon Squeezy, etc.). We rely on these providers' Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) and Data Processing Agreements for cross-border data transfer protection.
Where we do not operate
We do not cold-email Canadian individuals (we currently do not have a CASL-compliant consent funnel) or sanctioned jurisdictions (Russia, Iran, North Korea, mainland China for the data-transfer regime). If you are in one of these regions and we have written to you in error, please reply 'remove' and we will correct it immediately.
Security
Our systems run on the operator's encrypted personal computer. All public-facing traffic is over HTTPS. Postgres data is encrypted at rest by macOS FileVault. Backups are encrypted. We do not store credit card data (Lemon Squeezy handles all payment data as the merchant of record).
Changes to this policy
If we update this policy materially, we will email anyone we have an active relationship with at least 14 days before the change takes effect. Minor edits (typos, structural improvements) we make freely; the 'Last updated' date below always reflects when this page changed.
Complaints
If we have not handled your data well and we have not resolved it to your satisfaction, you have the right to complain to your local data protection authority. For India, that is the Data Protection Board of India under the DPDP Act.
