Our Products
FirstChants products are developed by Calvin Magondo a limited company based in London, England, and operated by our team based in London. Our website firstchants.com, as well as our subdomains are run by our internal team. We use third party services to build our products, keep in touch with customers and to help us understand how we can improve our products through analytics data. Many of those services collect data about you, our customers, but we aim to also be as explicit and transparent as possible when this is the case. As such, below we outline precisely what those services are, how we use them, as well as how we store & utilise any data those services provide. For any questions, please reach out to Nhaudzawo Calvin Magondo, our Founder directly, at calvin@firstchants.com If you contact FirstChants by email, we may keep a record of your correspondence or comments. We may ask for your name, e-mail address and contact information in order to send you a reply.
Data used by our website
We have custom built our website, but run our servers & all domains on Wix.com. Regarding your data, we may use a service called Mixpanel Analytics to allow us to anonymously track general user behaviour (such as the percentage of visitors who click a button) in order to improve the website and understand how effective it is in conveying what our company does & how it provides value to our customers and potential customers. For any advertising campaigns we run through Google Forms, Mailchimp and/or Wix, we also anonymously track users who interact with that advertising campaign, through to downloading our products and whether they end up paying for it or not.
