Who I Am
My website address is: https://learningwithbeth.com. I operate as a solo educator and business owner. When you interact with this website, your data is handled directly by me, in accordance with this privacy policy.
Information I Collect & How I Use It
- Contact Forms & Inquiries: When you contact me directly through a form on my website, I collect your name, email address, and any message content you provide. I use this information solely to respond to your specific inquiry. I do not use these email addresses for marketing purposes or share them with third parties.
- Resource Freebies & Email Marketing: If you sign up to receive one of my free educational resources, you exchange your email address and name for access to that freebie. By opting into these resources, you agree to receive promotional or marketing emails from me. You can unsubscribe from these marketing communications at any time by clicking the ‘unsubscribe’ link at the bottom of any email.
- Comments: When visitors leave comments on the site, I collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with 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.
Cookies & Data Tracking
If you leave a comment on my 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.
I do not employ third-party analytics tools, tracking pixels (such as the Meta/Facebook Pixel), advertisement links, or display advertising networks on this website.
Where Your Data Is Stored & Shared
- MailerLite: If you subscribe to my email marketing list or download a resource freebie, your name and email address are securely transferred to and stored on my email marketing platform, MailerLite. MailerLite helps me deliver emails and manage my subscribers.
- Spam Detection: Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
- I do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third parties.
How Long I Retain Your Data
- Comments: If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows the website to recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
