Privacy Policy

Last updated September 30, 2026

The short version. We collect your email address when you ask for the free guide, and the details needed to process a purchase. We use them to deliver what you asked for and to send occasional emails you can unsubscribe from at any time. We never sell your information, and our emails keep the topic out of subject lines.

Who we are

The Missing Manual is a course and website operated by Good Intimacy LLC, a Utah limited liability company ("we," "us"). This policy covers themissingmanualformen.com and the course platform at courses.themissingmanualformen.com.

What we collect

We do not ask for health, medical, or diagnostic information, and you don't need to share any to use the course.

How we use it

Cookies and the Meta Pixel

We use the Meta Pixel, a tool from Meta Platforms, to measure whether our ads lead to sign-ups and purchases and to show our ads to people likely to find them useful. The pixel records events such as viewing a page, requesting the guide, and starting checkout. Meta may combine this with other information it holds under its own policies. You can control ad personalization in your Facebook and Instagram ad settings, and you can block or delete cookies in your browser.

Our sign-up forms use Google reCAPTCHA to block spam. Its use is governed by Google's Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

Who we share it with

We share information only with providers that help us run the course, and only as needed for them to do that work:

We may also disclose information if the law requires it, or as part of a sale or reorganization of the business. We do not sell your personal information, and we don't share it with anyone for their own marketing.

Discretion

Charges appear under our parent company name, The Capable Self. Our email subject lines do not mention the topic of the course.

How long we keep it

We keep your information while you're subscribed or have course access, and as long as needed afterward for records, tax, and legal purposes. Ask us and we'll delete what we're not required to keep.

Your choices and rights

Age

This site and the course are for adults 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18.

Security

We rely on established providers that use industry-standard security. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect your information.

Changes

If we change this policy, we'll update the date at the top. Significant changes will be noted on this page.
