Privacy Policy

A web cookie is a small file that is sent from our website and stored in the browser on your computer. They help to remember your preferences while you’re on our site and recognize your last viewing session. They can’t install viruses or other malicious software and they don’t store any of your personal information. Some of the services we use, such as Stripe or Vimeo, may install cookies in your browser to provide you a better experience, protect against fraud, or remember your viewing preferences.

We use Google Analytics to keep track of where people are going and what they are doing while visiting our site. This helps us understand what is working and what is not and if we have any problems. It also helps us figure out what content and which posts are getting responded to the most. To be honest, we rarely use this because we just don’t have the time.

We use several different services to run our business, make our lives easier, and give you a better experience here on our site. We don’t sell, rent, give away or do anything nefarious with your data… its just not who we are. However, you should know where your data is and what’s being done with it:

1) Data on our website:

Workshops and Live Events – When you register for a live workshop or a retreat with us your information gets stored in a database here on our website. We will store your name, email, and phone number for starters. Depending on the event you register for, we may also collect and store your food requests, room request and emergency contact info. This information gets passed on to the retreat centers we work with to make your stay more comfortable and safe.

Online Classes and Memberships – When you register for an online class or membership program with us we will store your name, email, and mailing address if it has been requested to send you materials for the class. We will only use this information to email you reminders about the class, get in touch with you if there are technical problems, or send you materials in the mail. Your name and mail address gets sent to our assistant who does our bulk mailings. You will also receive a confirmation email and receipt of payment if you paid for a membership from us.

2) Constant Contact: Constant Contact is an email marketing service that we use to send you newsletters and announcements about classes and upcoming events that we are hosting. When you sign up for our newsletter your name and email address are added to our database at Constant Contact. They do not resell, trade, or distribute any of the information in our database with anyone else. The are GDPR compliant and you can unsubscribe from our list at anytime by clicking the Unsubscribe button at the bottom of any of our newsletters.

You can check out the Constant Contact privacy statement here: Constant Contact Privacy Statement

3) Acuity Scheduling: If you sign up for an astrology reading, creative coaching session, business mentoring package, or enroll in one of our live or online weekly classes your registration information will be sent to the Acuity Scheduling service. We collect your name, phone number, email address, and, in the case of astrology readings, we may ask you to provide the date, time, and location of your birth so that we can provide your reading. That information is stored in Acuity Scheduling for reference as well as on our personal computers so that we can print your chart. The Astrology program we use, Io Editions, does not send or relay any of your information over the internet and your information is only kept on our local computers and backups.

The Acuity Scheduling service allows you to book and reschedule appointments at times that work for you without us both having to trade 20 emails back and forth. Acuity Scheduling has their own privacy policy which you can check out. However, they only use your data to book your appointments or classes. They say, “Acuity takes the security and privacy of your information seriously, and we’ll never market to your customers or share your information with others.” You can also check out their full privacy policy here: Acuity Scheduling Privacy Policy

You will receive an automated confirmation and reminder email from Acuity Scheduling service when you enroll and when its time for your session.

4) Other Services: In addition to the main services above we also use other services to assist in running our business. All of these services are GDPR compliant and have their own privacy statements. These include:

Zapier – Zapier is a go between service that allows our website to transfer data to other services such as AirTable and Dropbox (below). Your data is never stored with Zapier but travels through their service on route to other places. Zapier Privacy Policy

Dropbox – We store some registration information for our events on Dropbox to make it easier for us to communicate with our assistant. The data here is password protected and only available to us and our assistant. Dropbox Privacy Policy

We don’t save any of your credit card information or details on our site. When you register for an event, class, or service with us, your payment information is processed by Stripe or PayPal depending on which gateway you chose during the transaction. The only transaction information that we keep track of on our site is your name, the amount of the transaction and which gateway you used. We have no idea what your card number or account number is. Both Stripe and PayPal have their own privacy policies which you can take a look at.
