How we use your personal data
We store and process your personal data carefully and securely. We use it exclusively for our own activities and these personal data will not be shared with any third parties or be passed on outside the EU. We hold the data until such as Butterfly Spirit Yoga ceases to exist, or until the data subject requests erasure, whichever is the sooner. If you do not wish to receive our communications and/or wish your data to be erased from our records, you may inform us at any time by email or by submitting a comment on our website.
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
