Privacy Policy: I Promise I’m Not Creepy

Effective Date: February 2, 2025

Hey there! I’m so glad you’re here, but before we dive into all the fun and creativity, let’s chat about how I handle your privacy. Don’t worry, I’m all about keeping things safe and sound while you get inspired. So here’s the lowdown on how I collect, use, and protect your info when you visit my site.

By hanging out with me here, you’re agreeing to this privacy policy. I know it sounds a little formal, but I’ve got your back.

1. The Info I Collect (And How I Use It)

When you sign up for my workshops, newsletters, or just stop by to soak in some poetic vibes, I may ask for a few basic details like your name, email, and maybe a favorite poetic quote. I also collect a little technical info about how you interact with the site (think browser type, IP address, and which pages you’re most likely to linger on).

I use this info to:

  • Keep you updated on upcoming workshops, resources, and all the cool things I’ve got cooking
  • Make your experience here smoother, better, and more fun (because who doesn’t love a seamless creative journey?)
  • Send you newsletters you can totally unsubscribe from if they start cramping your style
  • Improve how my website works and make sure it’s functioning like a well-oiled creative machine

2. How I Keep Your Info Safe (Like a Poetic Fort Knox)

I take your privacy seriously, like really seriously. Your data is encrypted, secured, and locked away in a metaphorical vault. But just a heads up—no online system is 100% foolproof. I do my best, but if the internet decides to throw a curveball, I can’t promise your info is invincible.

3. Sharing is NOT Caring (When It Comes to Your Info)

Here’s the deal: I won’t sell, rent, or trade your personal info to anyone. I’m not into that. I might share your info with trusted partners who help me run the website and provide services (like sending out those emails you love so much). But, don’t worry, they won’t misuse it. They’ve signed a trust agreement with me.

The only time I might share your info is if I absolutely have to (like responding to legal requests). But I’ll make sure your info is kept as secure as possible, promise.

4. Cookies: Not the Chocolate Chip Kind

Yep, I use cookies, but not the kind you can eat (unfortunately). These little digital cookies help me track how you use my site so I can make it even better for you. You can change your cookie settings if you want, but just know that some features might not work quite as smoothly without them.

5. User-Generated Content and Copyright (I Love Originality!)

Here’s the fun part: You’re welcome to share your creative work with me! But please, make sure it’s your original work—no stealing poems from your favorite poet (I’m watching, sort of). Anything you post is your responsibility to monitor, and I can’t be held accountable for any copyright issues that pop up. Just keep it legal and original, and we’re all good!

Disclaimer: I don’t collect or store your artwork (I’m not in the hoarding business), except for what’s necessary to run the services you use. So you’re safe there.

6. Your Rights (You’ve Got ‘Em!)

Depending on where you live, you might have the right to:

  • Access the info I’ve got on you (yep, you can ask for it!)
  • Correct any details that might be a bit off
  • Ask me to delete your data (I’ll cry a little, but I’ll do it)
  • Opt-out of marketing emails (I’ll try to convince you to stay, but I get it)
  • Ask me to stop processing your data in certain ways

If you want to exercise any of these rights, just reach out at [Your Contact Email]. I’m happy to help!

7. Third-Party Links (Not My Circus, Not My Monkeys)

My site might have links to other cool websites, but once you click over to those, I can’t be held responsible for how they handle your info. Make sure you check out their privacy policies too—because, you know, they’re different from mine.

8. Kids’ Privacy (Keep It Safe)

I love creativity from everyone, but my services aren’t meant for kids under 13. If I discover that a child under 13 has shared personal information with me, I’ll delete it faster than a disappearing act.

9. Changes to This Policy (The Fine Print)

I may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If I do, I’ll make sure the “Effective Date” at the top gets updated. I recommend you check back occasionally so you know exactly what’s going on. But don’t worry, I’ll always keep things clear and transparent!

10. Got Questions?

If you’re confused or have questions about how I handle your info, just shoot me a message on the contact page!

I’m here to help (and I love a good chat).
