01 Overview

Optimized Tonality is a privacy-forward product and business.

We collect only the following personal information:

• Email address - provided at checkout, used to deliver the Product and verify your access to the ROI Calculator Tool
• Payment information - processed entirely by our third-party payment processors Paypal or Venmo per buyer choice upon time of purchase; we do not receive, store, or have access to your full payment card details
• Purchase record - a record of your transaction is retained to confirm delivery, support ROI Calculator access verification, and address any post-purchase support needs

We do not collect your name, physical address, phone number, or any other personal information beyond what is listed above, unless you voluntarily provide it by contacting us for support.
