Paige Brettingen & Mama Steps, LLC recognizes the importance of privacy. I want you to feel confident using my services, so this privacy policy (“Policy”) is to help you understand and describe how I collect, use, and disclose information that I obtain about users of my website and services.
We will only collect and use your Personal Data where:
• we have lawful grounds to do so, including to comply with our legal obligations;
• we are performing a contract with you for our services; and
• we have legitimate interests in using your Personal Data and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests.
If you have any questions about this policy or about how we use your Personal Data, please contact us at hellomamasteps@gmail.com.
The following TERMS OF USE and PRIVACY POLICY are subject to change at any time and at the sole discretion of the Site owner and operator. Please visit the site regularly for updates.
What personal data we collect and why we collect it:
We only collect personal data where you choose to interact with us on the website in the following ways:

Contact forms:
When you request information on a speaking or coaching related issues through the Contact Form, the information you provide (name, email, address, event, etc.) is collected and used to respond to you.
Prep forms:
In preparation for a wellness coaching call or inquiry call, clients or potential clients complete the Healthprint quiz. This information is collected and used to inform the coach about the topics to be discussed and assist in making nutrition recommendations to better support the client’s health goals.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the blog we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help 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.

Keeping your Personal Data secure:
Mama Steps takes the security of your personal information very seriously. When your personal data is stored by Mama Steps, we have implemented security policies and technical measures to safeguard the Personal Data we collect from accidental loss, destruction or damage and unauthorized access, use and disclosure. When you use Mama Steps’ products and services that by their nature are public facing, such as when you post on a Mama Steps forum, the personal information and content you share is visible to other users and can be read, collected, or used by them. You are responsible for the personal information you choose to share or submit in these instances. For example, if you list your name and email address in a forum posting, that information is public. Please take care when using these features.
Who we share your data with:
I do not share your personal information with others except as indicated within this Policy or when I inform you and give you an opportunity to opt out of having your personal information shared.
How long we retain your data:
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For those that register on our website (through Prep forms and Contact forms), we also store the personal information provided in their user profile indefinitely. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time. Contact us at hellomamasteps@gmail.comfor that information. Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
