BAXTERCareer Exploration

Privacy Notice

Last updated: October 21, 2026. This notice covers Career Exploration, sold by Baxter Admissions Consulting, LLC ("BAXTER"). It supplements BAXTER's general Privacy Policy, which covers the rest of our website and services.

What we collect

  • Email address (entered at Stripe checkout): Stripe uses it for your receipt. We do not store your email address; Stripe keeps it.
  • Payment details: handled entirely by Stripe. We never see or store your card number.
  • Your exploration answers: while you work, they stay in your browser only. When you generate your report, they are sent to us to create your report.
  • Your report and its PDF: kept temporarily so you can view and download them until your 24-hour access ends.
  • A minimal purchase record (Stripe payment and checkout IDs, amount, status, dates, and whether your report's PDF was successfully prepared — no answers, no report, no email address, and no record of downloads): for refunds, disputes and accounting.
  • Technical data (for example, IP address and browser type in server logs): security, fraud prevention and keeping the service running.

Cookies

We use one strictly necessary cookie, which keeps your session open on your browser. It contains a random code, not personal information, and expires when your session ends. We don't use tracking, analytics or advertising cookies. Your answers in progress are stored in your browser's local storage and are cleared when you generate your report, choose Finish and Exit, or next open the exploration or report page after your access has ended. They never leave your browser unless you generate a report, and you can remove them at any time by clearing this site's data in your browser.

We don't collect student names, schools or grades, or sell or share data for advertising.

Who processes data for us

Stripe (payments), Netlify (hosting, temporary session data and report files), and Tall Pine Labs, which builds and operates the service for BAXTER. They act on our instructions only.

How long we keep it

  • Answers, report and PDF: deleted when you choose "Finish and Exit", when your 24-hour access ends (24 hours after your payment is confirmed), or when the purchase is refunded or disputed — whichever comes first. Automatic cleanup runs hourly, so deletion after the time limit happens within about an hour; access itself ends exactly at the limit. Our hosting provider may keep backup copies for a limited period under its own policies.
  • Minimal purchase record: this application's operational purchase record is kept for 12 months after purchase, then deleted. Financial records required for tax, accounting or legal compliance may be retained separately as necessary.
  • Payment records at Stripe: kept by Stripe under its own policies and as required for tax and accounting.
  • Server logs: kept by our hosting provider for a limited period under its own policies.

Children

The service is purchased by adults. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children under 13; students using a parent's purchase aren't asked for personal information. If you believe a child provided personal information, contact us and we'll delete it.

Your choices

You can delete your report at any time by choosing "Finish and Exit." For questions about your minimal purchase record, email contact@baxterac.com.

Security

Session codes are long and random, and we store only a coded version. Data is encrypted in transit, and access is restricted.
