Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect It

Online Forms

We collect the personal information you voluntarily provide to us, which includes your name and e-mail address, when you choose to subscribe to our newsletter, receive our free content, and/or purchase services or online products. Our store is powered by WooCommerce with whom we share access rights in order to process secure payments (read WooCommerce Terms of Use here).

Website Visitor Tracking

Like most websites, our website uses Google Analytics. This tool collects information in an anonymous form, including how many visitors we have, where they came from (i.e. the referral source, such as Facebook, Google, etc.), and the pages visited. We use this information to better understand how visitors find us and how they interact with our website. We can also use this to make adjustments to our website to deliver a better user experience. For more information on Google Analytics cookies, see the official Google Analytics page.

We also use a Facebook pixel (i.e. cookie) so that we can better understand how visitors are interacting with our site via social media and to track the effectiveness of any ads we place on social media.

Cookie data is anonymized but you can opt out of this tracking at any time via your own browser settings. To learn more about this, consult the help menu in your browser or visit www.allaboutcookies.org.

Embedded Content and Cookies from Other Websites

Articles and posts on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.) from services like Vimeo, SoundCloud, Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you have visited the other website meaning that these services may also place their own cookies through the embedded content on our site. For example, Vimeo’s embeddable video player uses first-party cookies that they (Vimeo) consider essential to the video player experience.

In other words, these outside 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 with their service and are logged in to their website at the time that you visit this Website.

We also use social media buttons and/or plugins on this Website that allow you to connect with your social network in various ways, such as sharing an article or resource that we’ve created for the public. For these to work social media sites, including Twitter, Facebook, Google+, Instagram, will set cookies through our Website which may be used to enhance your profile on their site or contribute to the data they hold for various purposes outlined in their respective privacy policies.

Cookie data is anonymized but you can opt out of this tracking at any time via your own browser settings. To learn more about this, consult the help menu in your browser or visit www.allaboutcookies.org. Note that if you disable or decline cookies, you may experience impaired functionality for some or all of these services. At any time, if you experience functionality issues, you can contact us for assistance.
