What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Forms

We collect information from you when you fill out the free download form, contact form, or book a session.

Payment information

If you opt to book a session, you will be prompted to provide payment information.  Your payment information is not visible to us since it is processed by a secure third party payment vendor.

Log data

Whenever you visit our site, we collect information that your browser sends to us called Log Data.  This Log Data may include information such as your internet’s IP address, browser version, pages of our website that you visit, the time and date of our visit, the time spent on those pages, and other statistics.

Cookies

Cookies are files with a small amount of data that is commonly used as an anonymous unique identifier.  These are sent to your browser from the website that you visit and are stored on your computer’s hard drive.

Our website uses these cookies to collect information and to improve our website.  You can turn off the use of cookies at any time by changing your Internet browser settings.  If you choose to turn off our cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our website.

If you have an account and you log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

Security

We value your trust in providing your personal information to us.  Thus, we are committed to continually use commercially acceptable means to protect it.  However, keep in mind that no method of transmission over the internet, or electronic storage, is 100% secure and reliable.  We therefore cannot guarantee absolute security.

Republished content

We are not responsible for republished content from our website on other blogs or websites that have not had a co-creation discussion with us.

Third party links and embedded content

Occasionally, at our discretion, we may include third party links on our website.  These third party websites have separate and independent privacy policies.  We therefore have no responsibility or liability for the content and activities of these linked sites.  Nonetheless, we seek to protect the integrity of our site and welcome any feedback about these sites.

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Children’s privacy

We are in compliance with the requirements of COPPA (Children’s Online Privacy Policy Act), and do not collect information from anyone under the age of 13.  The content and services of our website are targeted to those who are at least 13 years of age or older.

Online privacy policy only

This privacy policy applies only to the information collected through our website and not to the information collected offline.

If you have any questions about our privacy policy, please feel free to contact us.

Who we share your data with

No one. We will never share your data with any third parties, and will only use it for our internal purposes as stated above.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where we send your data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

Additional information

How we protect your data

In addition to maintaining a current security license on our website, all your data is stored with reputable vendors, such as Mailchimp. Additionally, we use a third party payment processor to process and store payments securely.

What data breach procedures we have in place

If there is any type of data breach to our website or any of the services we use, we will notify you immediately with steps to secure your information, such as changing your password if you have an account with us.
