Effective Date: 1/17/2025
Welcome to the website of Hollie Hauptly, Utah Doula, Childbirth Educator, and Trainer. Your privacy is of utmost importance to us. This Privacy & Cookies Policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit our website.
The terms “you” and “your” refers to anyone who:
- uses, visits and/or views our website,
- accesses any of our content, or
- purchases any content, product(s), or service(s) from us.
By visiting and using the website, or making a purchase from us, you accept and agree to be bound by this Privacy Policy.
We may change or update this Privacy Policy without notifying you. The latest version can always be found on our website.
Your continued use of the website after posting of any changes to our Privacy Policy means you accept the changes. You must not access or use the website if you do not wish to be bound by this Privacy Policy.
If you have questions about this Privacy Policy, you can contact us at hollie@birthbootcamp.com.
1. Information We Collect
Contact details
Your name, address, phone number, email address, social media handles, and any alternative contact details you may provide.
Financial information
Your bank details, credit/debit card details, PayPal account details, or any other payment methods
Data that identifies you
Your IP address, login information, browser type and version, device type, time zone settings, browser plug-ins, geolocation information about where you might be, operating system and version, and other information that is collected automatically about your activity on our website.
Data on how you use our website
Your URL clickstreams (the path you take through our site), products/services viewed or placed into cart, page response times, error messages, how long you stay on our pages, what you do on those pages, how often, and other actions you take on our website.
What about really sensitive data?
We don’t collect any “sensitive data” about you (like race, ethnicity, political opinions, religious/philosophical beliefs, union membership, genetic data, biometric data, data about your sexual life or preferences, or any alleged/actual offences) except when we have your specific consent or when we have to in order to comply with the law.
What about children’s data?
We are a business that provides content, products, and services which are directed to and intended for use by only individuals over the legal age of adulthood (which happens to be 18 years old in most places in the world).
Nothing we provide is targeted at children, and we do not knowingly collect any personal data from any person under the legal age of adulthood. If you believe that personal information was collected without parental or guardian consent from a child, please contact us to have that information deleted.
2. How We Use Your Information
Data protection laws restrict us in how we can use your data. These laws only allow us to use your data for certain reasons, which we must have a legal basis for. Here are the reasons for which we process your data:
Running our business
Managing your requests (like creating and managing your account, answering your questions, processing your purchases), login and authentication, remembering your settings and preferences, processing payments, hosting and back-end infrastructure.
Legal basis: contract, legitimate interest
Improving our content, products, and services
Testing features, interacting with feedback, managing landing pages, heatmapping our site, traffic optimisation, data analysis and research, profiling, and using machine learning techniques to analyse data. This may be done by us or by an external person/company that we use to provide services to us.
Legal basis: contract, legitimate interest
Customer support
Providing essential information and updates on any product or service which you are signed up for or have access to (including free challenges/events) and resolving issues (technical, financial, or otherwise). This may be by phone, email, chat, social media, or in a community group hosted on our website or another platform we use.
Legal basis: contract, consent
Advertising and marketing
Sending you emails and messages about new features, offers, products, and services as well as informational content. We may also run targeted advertising campaigns on other platforms.
Legal basis: consent
Here is an explanation for each of the legal bases we use:
Consent
You have given us clear consent to process your personal data for a specific purpose.
You can change your mind! If you have previously given your consent, you can freely withdraw that consent at any time. All you have to do is let us know at contact@birthbootcamp.com (we’re not mind readers, after all).
If you withdraw your consent, we will immediately stop processing your data unless we have another legal basis to process the data. If we do have another legal basis to process your data, we may continue to do so as long as that legal basis remains valid.
Contract
Processing your data is necessary as part of a contract you have with us, or if we have asked you to take specific steps before entering into a contract with us.
Please remember that Terms & Conditions are a type of contract. If you’ve ticked a box agreeing to our Terms & Conditions (for example, as part of a purchase), you’ve effectively “signed” a contract with us.
Legitimate Interests
Processing your data is necessary for our legitimate business interests or the legitimate business interests of another person/company we work closely with. Examples of legitimate interests include:
- gaining insights from your behaviour on our website or any platforms we use
- delivering, developing, and improving our content, products, and services
- enabling us to improve, customise, or modify our content and communications
- determining whether marketing and advertising campaigns are effective
- verifying and enhancing data security
In each case, our legitimate interest is only valid if it is not outweighed by your rights and interests. We respect your rights, and we carefully evaluate if a legitimate interest is strong enough to justify processing your data.
3. Sharing Your Information
Your information is never sold, traded, or shared with third parties except as necessary to:
- Fulfill your requests (e.g., payment processing).
- Comply with legal obligations.
- Protect the rights, safety, or property of Hollie Hauptly, our users, or others.
4. Cookies Policy
Cookies are small text files stored on your device to improve website functionality and user experience. We use cookies to:
- Analyze website traffic
You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings. Please note that disabling cookies may affect your user experience.
5. Your Rights
You have choices and rights when it comes to your data. To exercise your rights, you can email us at hollie@birthbootcamp.com.
You can choose not to provide us with personal data
If you choose to do this, you can continue to use our website and the content you see on it. However, you may be unable to download, access, or purchase additional content, such as PDF “freebies”, webinars, events, or paid products/services.
You can choose to turn off cookies in your browser by changing the browser settings
You can block cookies by activating a setting in your browser that refuses all cookies. You can also delete cookies through your browser settings. If you turn off cookies, you can continue to try to use our website, but it may not load/function effectively (or at all).
You can choose to tell us not to use your data for marketing
We will inform you before collecting your data if we intend to use that data for marketing. If you’ve previously opted-in to marketing, you can change your preferences by using the “unsubscribe” button in any marketing email you’ve received from us, or just let us know by email at hollie@birthbootcamp.com.
You have the right to access information we hold about you
You can ask us for additional information about:
- the categories of data we’re processing
- the purposes for data processing
- the categories of third parties that we disclose data to
- how long we store data (or the criteria we use to decide storage times)
- your other rights regarding our use of your data
If you make a request, we will respond to your request within one month, unless we have a valid reason to deny your request (for example, if responding to your request would negatively affect the rights and freedoms of others, including the right to confidentiality or intellectual property rights).
You have the right to make us correct any inaccurate personal data about you
You can contact us at any time to let us know your most up to date information (changed your name, moved to a new address, or anything else).
You can object to us using your data for profiling you or making automated decisions about you
We may use your data to determine whether we should let you know information that may be relevant to you (for example, you may receive some emails and not others based on your past behaviour). Otherwise, the only circumstances in which we do this is to provide our products/services to you (the nature of what we’re providing may require some customisation to benefit you).
You have the right to be ‘forgotten’ by us
You can do this by asking us to delete any personal data we have about you. However, please understand that where we have contractual, regulatory, legal, or other essential reasons to hold on to your data, we may keep some of your data (only what we actually need and only as long as we actually need it).
You have the right to file a complaint about our use of your data
If you have a complaint, please let us know and give us a chance to address it and ease your concerns first. If we fail at this, you can submit your complaint to the regulatory body that deals with data privacy in your country.
6. Security
We have physical, electronic, and managerial processes to ensure your data is secure. However, there are people with bad intentions in the world, and no data is ever 100% secure. Please also understand that we are a small business, and we don’t have the budget, systems, or expertise that large businesses do, so we do the best we can with what we have.
A few reminders:
- Providing your personal data is at your own risk, because unfortunately, no data transfer can be guaranteed as secure.
- You are responsible for keeping your login details (username, password) secret and safe.
- If you believe your privacy has been breached, please let us know as soon as possible.
7. Third-Party Links
Our website may contain links to third-party sites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these websites. Please review their policies before providing any personal information.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy & Cookies Policy periodically. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.
