Who we are

The Teaching Press publishes practical digital guides and online reading memberships for K-12 teachers. This website is owned and operated by Suchitra Vijay Verma, trading as The Teaching Press, based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. For information collected through this website, Suchitra Vijay Verma, trading as The Teaching Press is the data controller.

You can contact us at any time by email at suchipravi@gmail.com.

Our order process is conducted by our online reseller Paddle.com. Paddle.com is the Merchant of Record for all our orders. Paddle provides all customer service inquiries and handles returns.

Information we collect

We may collect your name, email address, support messages, order and subscription details, purchase history, and communications you choose to send us.

We may also collect technical and usage information such as IP address, device and browser type, approximate location, pages visited, referring pages, and cookie or similar identifiers.

Payment card details are entered directly into the secure checkout and processed by Paddle. We do not store full payment card numbers on this website.

How information is used

We use personal information to provide digital guides and membership access, manage orders and subscriptions, respond to support requests, prevent fraud and misuse, comply with tax and accounting obligations, and improve the website and products.

The legal bases we rely on include performing a contract with you, pursuing legitimate interests in operating and improving the store, obtaining consent where required, and meeting legal obligations.

We do not sell personal information. Teachers should not submit student personal data through this website.

Who receives information

We use trusted service providers for website hosting, security, analytics, customer support, file delivery, and business administration. Paddle processes information needed for checkout, payment, invoicing, tax compliance, subscription management, refunds, and buyer support.

We may share information with professional advisers such as accountants or lawyers, and with authorities where required by law. If you buy through Etsy, Gumroad, Teachers Pay Teachers, Amazon, or another marketplace, that marketplace controls the information it collects.

Cookies and analytics

The website may use essential cookies or similar technologies required for security, checkout, and basic site operation. Optional analytics may be used to understand which guides and pages are useful to visitors.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies may prevent checkout or membership access from working correctly.

Retention, transfers, and security

We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, including tax, accounting, fraud-prevention, and legal requirements. Information is deleted or anonymised when no longer needed.

Because our service providers may operate in different countries, personal information may be processed outside your country. We use appropriate technical and organisational safeguards, including access controls and secure checkout, designed to protect personal information.

Your rights and choices

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, transfer, or object to the use of your personal information, and to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.

To make a privacy request, use the customer support link shown during checkout or on your Paddle receipt. If you bought through a marketplace, contact that marketplace for information it controls. You may also have the right to complain to your local data-protection authority.

Updates

We may update this policy as the store, membership, or legal requirements change. The current version will always be posted on this page with its effective date.
