Return to Self Coaching ("I," "me") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information I collect, how I use it, and your choices.

What I collect

• Name and email address when you book a session or Discovery Call
• Payment information processed through [PAYMENT PROCESSOR, e.g., Stripe, PayPal, or Calendly Payments]; I do not store payment details directly
• Session notes maintained for continuity between coaching sessions; these are kept confidential and are not shared

What I do not collect

I do not collect health records, diagnostic information, or medical history. I do not run advertising on this site. I do not use tracking pixels from social media platforms or ad networks.

How I use your information

• Contact information is used to schedule and communicate about coaching sessions
• Session notes are used to support continuity in your coaching work
• I do not share, sell, or provide your information to any third party except the service providers listed below

Third-party services

• [Calendly / scheduling tool] — appointment booking (name, email, appointment time)
• [Stripe / payment processor] — payment processing (payment details are processed directly by them)
• [Zoom / video platform] — session delivery (video and audio during sessions)
• Vercel — website hosting (standard server logs)
• Sanity — content management (no client data)

The client portal

If you work with me and use the client portal, it holds what you and I put there: your session pages, the reflections you choose to share, our messages, your appointments, invoices, and the agreements you sign. Everything you write in the portal is shared with me — that is what it is for — and nothing in it is visible to anyone else.

Portal data is stored with Supabase (a Postgres database and file storage) in [PLACEHOLDER — the hosting region chosen when the project was created, e.g. "the United States"; confirm with attorney], and is reached only through my server; nothing in the browser can read it directly. Uploaded files are never public and open only through links that expire after fifteen minutes. Email notifications tell you *that* something is waiting and never contain what it says.

You can ask me for a complete export of your portal data at any time, and I can produce it as a file from within the portal. When our work together ends, [PLACEHOLDER — retention period, e.g. "your portal record is kept for N months and then deleted"; confirm with attorney]. You may ask me to delete it sooner, and I will; what remains afterwards is a dated note that a record was deleted, with no name or content. My own private session notes about our work are mine and are not part of your record; [PLACEHOLDER — retention of coach notes; confirm with attorney].

Cookies
