We do not control the privacy practices of third parties and encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing them with personal information.

How We Share Information

We may share personal information with service providers, contractors, and other trusted third parties when reasonably necessary to operate our website, communicate with you, provide our services, process transactions, maintain our systems, or perform other legitimate business functions.

We Do Not Sell Your Personal Information

We do not sell personal information for money.

Depending on the technologies and services used on our website, certain activities involving advertising, analytics, or other third-party services may be considered “sharing” or other forms of disclosure under certain privacy laws.

Where required by applicable law, we will provide applicable notices and choices regarding those activities.

If you choose to receive marketing, educational, or other promotional emails from us, you may unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in those emails.

We may also send emails that are necessary to respond to an inquiry, provide a service you requested, communicate about an appointment, or manage an existing client relationship.

We will comply with applicable laws governing commercial and marketing communications.

Information Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to provide services, maintain appropriate business records, communicate with clients, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, comply with legal obligations, and protect our legitimate business interests.

The length of time we retain information may vary depending on the type of information and the reason it was collected.

Data Security

We take reasonable measures designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, use, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

Our website is hosted by Squarespace, which provides security measures for its platform. However, no website, electronic transmission, or method of storing information can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, social-media platforms, or other services.

Those websites and services operate independently from us and may have their own privacy policies and practices. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of third-party websites.

Children's Privacy

Our website and services are intended for adults and are not directed toward children under 13.

We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13. If you believe that a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so that we can take appropriate steps to address the situation.

Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live and which privacy laws apply to you, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information.

These rights may include the right to:

• Know what personal information we collect and how it is used

• Request access to personal information we maintain about you

• Request correction of inaccurate information

• Request deletion of certain personal information

• Opt out of certain uses or disclosures of personal information where applicable

• Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent

• Exercise other rights provided by applicable privacy laws

Some privacy laws apply only to businesses that meet certain requirements or thresholds. Accordingly, not every privacy right described above will necessarily apply in every situation.

We will respond to valid privacy requests in accordance with applicable law. We may take reasonable steps to verify your identity before completing certain requests.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising privacy rights provided to you by law.

California Privacy Rights

If you are a California resident and applicable California privacy laws apply to our business, you may have additional rights regarding your personal information, including rights to know, delete, correct, and opt out of certain sales or sharing of personal information.

California residents may also have rights relating to sensitive personal information and the use of certain universal opt-out signals, such as Global Privacy Control, where applicable.

Other State Privacy Laws

Other states may provide additional privacy rights to their residents. Where applicable, we will honor rights and obligations required by the privacy laws that apply to our business and to your information.

Do Not Track

Some web browsers offer a “Do Not Track” setting. Because there is not a uniform standard for responding to these signals, our website may not respond to all browser-based Do Not Track settings.

Where applicable law requires us to recognize a browser-based privacy signal or universal opt-out mechanism, we will do so in accordance with the law.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our business, website, services, technology, or applicable privacy laws.

When we make changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
