Privacy Policy
Last updated: 8 August 2026
We collect only what's needed to run your registration — name, contact details, and payment information. Payments are encrypted and processed by our payment gateway, never stored on our servers. We never sell your information. Unsubscribe from emails anytime, or contact info@fineartbartending.ca with any privacy question. Classes are occasionally photographed and filmed for our social media and ads — attending means you're okay appearing; tell us if you'd rather not.

Email Communications
We collect your email address to send information, respond to inquiries, process orders and send order updates, and share information related to your product or service. In accordance with CAN-SPAM we agree to: not use false or misleading subjects or email addresses; identify marketing messages as advertisements in a reasonable way; include our business's physical address; monitor any third-party email services for compliance; and honour unsubscribe requests promptly.

Your Information
We may use the information we collect when you register, make a purchase, sign up for our newsletter, respond to a survey or marketing communication, browse the website, or use certain site features — primarily to process your transactions quickly.
How We Protect Your Information
Our website is scanned regularly for security vulnerabilities and malware. Your personal information is kept behind secured networks, accessible only to a limited number of people with special access rights who are required to keep it confidential. Sensitive and credit information is encrypted with SSL technology, and all transactions are processed through a gateway provider — they are not stored or processed on our servers.
Photography & Video
Classes, workshops, and events at Fine Art Bartending School are occasionally photographed and filmed. By paying for and attending a course, class, or event, you consent to appearing in this photography and video content, and you grant Fine Art Bartending School Vancouver Ltd. permission to publish it on our website and social media channels and to use it in our advertising and marketing, without compensation. If you'd prefer not to appear in photos or video, let your instructor know at the start of class or email info@fineartbartending.ca, and we'll do our best to keep you out of frame.

We use them to remember and process items in your shopping cart, understand your preferences from site activity, and compile aggregate data about site traffic so we can improve the experience. You can set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies or turn them off entirely through your browser settings; turning cookies off won't materially affect your experience.
