In a Nutshell:
- We do not sell or give away any personal information collected on this site.
- The only time we collect personal information is if you choose to provide it so that we can either fulfill an order or send you information that you request.
- You may use this site anonymously, unless you register for a membership. Then you will need to provide your information to access the member’s only content.
- If you make a purchase on our site, the payment is processed through Stripe or PayPal, so we will not be storing your banking information on our servers. Use the links in the previous sentence to learn about their privacy policies.
- We do use cookies from Google in order to be able to serve ads on external web sites. If you wish to opt out, you can also manage many companies’ cookies used for online advertising at the US-based aboutads.info choices page or the EU-based Your Online Choices. You can use Ads Settings to manage the Google ads you see.

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.
Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Contact forms
If you submit information via a contact form, we will keep that data unless you request it be deleted. The only data that will be made available is in the case of testimonials, but any identifying information will be stripped, and only your initials will be used in reverse order.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
If you visit our login page, 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.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.
Embedded content from other websites
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.
Analytics
We do use third party plugins to track non-identifying information for data and statistical purposes.
Who we share your data with:
By default WordPress does not share any personal data with anyone, nor do we.
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
We do not share your personal information with any other entities.
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
Your contact information
Any privacy policy concerns should be addressed to info@mindfulnessandgrief.com.
