Privacy policy

The short version: Cookies for analytics (Google Analytics) and ad measurement (Meta Pixel) only if you click “OK” in the banner. With “No”, only necessary cookies remain. We only process the data we need to send you your hypnosis and to stay in touch if you want us to. We don’t sell your data.

1. Who is responsible

Lindner International Ltd, Galileou 27, 6023 Larnaca, Cyprus
Email: [email protected]
Use this address for any privacy question or request.

2. Visiting the website and hosting

The website is delivered through Cloudflare (Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St., San Francisco, CA 94107, USA; hosting, content delivery, attack protection and data storage). When you visit, Cloudflare processes technically necessary data: IP address, date and time, the page requested, browser and operating system, referrer. This keeps the website secure and stable. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in secure operation (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Cloudflare keeps these logs only briefly. We have a data processing agreement with Cloudflare. Cloudflare is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, and standard contractual clauses apply as well.

Fonts are loaded from our own server. There’s no connection to Google Fonts or any other font service.

3. Cookies and local storage

We only set cookies that are needed for features you use yourself:

  • epiq_lang remembers your language choice (English or German) so you see the right language next time. Duration: 1 year.
  • h88 keeps you logged in to your personal hypnosis area after you open the link in your email. Duration: 1 year. Readable only by this website.

These cookies are strictly necessary to provide a service you asked for, so no consent is required. You can delete cookies in your browser at any time.

We store your banner choice as epiq_consent in your browser’s local storage (12 months) so we don’t ask again on every visit. You can change it anytime via “Cookie settings” at the bottom of the page.

3a. Google Analytics (only with your consent)

We use Google Analytics 4 (Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland) to understand which pages are read, where visitors come from and whether our content helps. The Google tag runs in “Consent Mode”: before you click “OK”, it sets no cookies and only sends anonymous, cookieless signals (page view, consent status) to Google, from which Google estimates visitor numbers. Only after “OK” are cookies set and your usage recorded. Legal basis: your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR); for the cookieless signals our legitimate interest in basic reach measurement (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Google Analytics sets the cookies _ga and _ga_… (up to 2 years). Google Analytics 4 does not store IP addresses. Google signals, advertising features and personalized ads are switched off. We have a data processing agreement with Google; Google LLC is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. We keep reports in Google Analytics for 2 months. You can withdraw your consent anytime via “Cookie settings” at the bottom of the page. More at policies.google.com/privacy.

3b. Meta Pixel (only with your consent)

If you click “OK” in the banner, we use the Meta Pixel (Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, Merrion Road, Dublin 4, Ireland) to measure whether our ads on Facebook and Instagram lead to requests, and to show visitors of our site relevant ads. The pixel sets the cookies _fbp (3 months) and possibly _fbc, and sends to Meta: your IP address, browser data, pages visited and events such as “request sent” (without your email address, no advanced matching). Legal basis: your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). For this collection we are joint controllers with Meta (Art. 26 GDPR, facebook.com/legal/controller_addendum). Meta is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. Withdraw anytime via “Cookie settings”. More at facebook.com/privacy/policy.

4. Your free hypnosis by email

When you enter your email address on one of our pages, we send you a personal access link. Clicking that link confirms your address (double opt-in). We store: your email address, when you signed up and confirmed, the page you came from (including any campaign tag in the address, such as utm_source), and when you last logged in.

Purpose: to give you access to the hypnosis and, if you agreed, to send you emails from Hypnotic Rise, such as listening tips, more hypnosis sessions and information about the program. Legal bases: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (providing the hypnosis) and Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR (consent to emails). Every email has an unsubscribe link. You can withdraw your consent at any time, also by simply emailing [email protected].

5. Your personal free hypnosis (request form)

When you request a personal hypnosis, we process your email address, the description of what you want to change, and your answers to a few short questions. This information may reveal something about your health or well-being, for example sleep, stress or fears. We only process it with your explicit consent (Art. 9(2)(a) and Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), which you give in the form.

Purpose: to understand your request and create a hypnosis for it. A person on our team reviews every request. To sort requests and write the hypnosis, we use AI tools from Anthropic (Anthropic, PBC, San Francisco, USA). Your request is sent to that service without your email address. The finished hypnosis text is voiced by ElevenLabs (Eleven Labs, Inc., New York, USA), which receives only the hypnosis text, never your contact details. No automated decision with legal effect is made about you (Art. 22 GDPR).

6. Sending emails

We send emails through Resend (Plus Five Five, Inc., USA). Resend processes your email address and the content of the email to deliver it. The legal basis is the same as for the email itself (section 4). Transfers to the US are based on standard contractual clauses.

7. Contacting us by email

When you write to us, we process your message and contact details to answer you (Art. 6(1)(b) or (f) GDPR). Emails to [email protected] are forwarded to our mailbox by Cloudflare Email Routing.

8. Links to studies and other websites

Our articles link to studies and research. Only when you click such a link do you leave our website, and that provider then handles your data under its own rules.

9. Recipients and international transfers

Your data is only shared with the service providers named above, who work on our behalf, and with authorities where the law requires it. Some providers are based in the US. Transfers rely on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework where the provider is certified, and otherwise on the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses (Art. 46 GDPR).

10. How long we keep data

  • Your access and email address: until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete it. After you unsubscribe, we keep the address blocked only to prove that you no longer receive anything from us.
  • Requests for a personal hypnosis: up to 24 months after last use, then deleted. Immediately if you ask.
  • Unconfirmed sign-ups: 30 days at most.
  • Server logs at Cloudflare: a few days.
  • Tax and accounting records if you buy something: as long as the law requires.

11. Your rights

You have the right to access (Art. 15), correct (Art. 16) and delete your data (Art. 17), to restrict processing (Art. 18), to data portability (Art. 20) and to object (Art. 21 GDPR). You can withdraw consent at any time (Art. 7(3) GDPR). An email to [email protected] is enough.

You can complain to a data protection authority. Our lead authority is the Commissioner for Personal Data Protection of the Republic of Cyprus (Iasonos 1, 1082 Nicosia, www.dataprotection.gov.cy). You can also contact the authority where you live.

12. For residents of the United States

This section applies to residents of California and other US states with consumer privacy laws (for example the CCPA/CPRA).

  • What we collect: identifiers (email address, IP address), internet activity on our own site (pages requested, technical logs), the information you choose to give us in the request form, which may include sensitive information about your health or well-being, and, if you buy something, purchase records.
  • Sources: directly from you and from your browser when you use the site.
  • Why: to provide the hypnosis and our services, to send you the emails you agreed to, and to keep the site secure.
  • No sale; sharing only if you opt in: We do not sell your personal information. Data is shared with Meta for ad measurement and targeted advertising only if you click “OK” in the cookie banner; you can withdraw that choice anytime via “Cookie settings” (this is your right to opt out of sharing). Sensitive information is used only to create your hypnosis and is never shared for advertising.
  • Your rights: You can ask to know, access, correct or delete your personal information, and to limit the use of sensitive information. Email [email protected]. We may need to confirm your identity, usually by replying from the email address you used with us. You can use an authorized agent. We won’t treat you differently for using your rights.
  • Browser signals: If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track signal, we treat it as “only necessary” and load neither analytics nor the Meta Pixel.
  • Email: Every marketing email contains an unsubscribe link and our postal address. We honor unsubscribe requests promptly.

13. Minimum age

Our services are for adults aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13 or anyone under 18.

14. Security

The website is fully encrypted with HTTPS. Access links are randomly generated and can’t be guessed. Only our team can see requests.

15. Changes

If we start using new services, we’ll update this policy. The version published here always applies.

If there’s any difference between this English version and the German version for users in the EU, the German version takes precedence.
