Privacy Policy
Last Updated: 15 July 2026
Zejofu Havuta ("we," "us," "our") operates this website to describe our consulting services for independent coffee shop owners and to provide a way for interested owners to make contact. This policy explains, in plain terms, what happens to information submitted through this site. It is written with reference to the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CCPA/CPRA), and general principles enforced by the Federal Trade Commission for businesses operating in the United States.
1. What information do we collect?
We collect information you choose to submit through our contact and application forms, which typically includes your name, email address, the name and general location of your coffee shop, and any details you write in a message field. We do not ask for payment information, government identification, or financial account details through this website. Our web hosting environment may also log standard technical information automatically, such as browser type, approximate location derived from IP address, and pages visited, consistent with typical website server logs.
2. How is information collected?
Information is collected in two ways: directly, when you fill out the contact form or the application form, and indirectly, through cookies and similar technologies described in our separate Cookie Policy. Form submissions on this site are configured to open your own email client, meaning the information you type is sent from your device to our email address rather than stored in a database on our server.
3. Why do we use this information?
We use the information you submit to respond to inquiries, evaluate applications for a possible walkthrough or consultation, and maintain basic records of correspondence. Technical and cookie-based information, where consented to, helps us understand general usage patterns of the site so we can keep it functioning correctly and identify pages that may need improvement.
4. Do we share information with third parties?
We do not sell personal information, and we do not share the contents of your messages with unrelated third parties for their own marketing purposes. Limited disclosure may occur to service providers who help operate the technical infrastructure of this website, such as hosting providers, under obligations to keep information confidential, or where disclosure is required by law, subpoena, or valid legal process.
5. How long do we keep information?
We retain correspondence and application details for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to your inquiry and maintain basic business records, and no longer than is necessary for those purposes unless a longer period is required by law. You may request deletion of information you have previously sent us, as described below.
6. What are your rights under the CCPA and other US privacy laws?
If you are a California resident, you have the right to request that we disclose the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you, request deletion of personal information we hold, and opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, though we do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined under the CCPA/CPRA. Residents of other states with comparable privacy laws may have similar rights. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details at the end of this policy, and we will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.
7. How do we protect information?
We take reasonable administrative and technical measures appropriate to a small consulting business to protect information from unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure. No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security, but we aim to handle information you share with care.
8. Do we collect information from children?
This website is intended for business owners and adults evaluating consulting services. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13, consistent with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected information from a child under 13, we will take steps to delete it.
9. How can you contact us about privacy?
Questions about this Privacy Policy, or requests relating to your personal information, can be sent to Zejofu Havuta at 917 Main St F300, Cincinnati, OH, by email at [email protected], or by phone at +1 513-977-4208. We may update this policy periodically; the date at the top reflects the most recent revision.
