PRIVACY POLICY Cynthia Coufal Coaching Last updated: August 19, 2026 This Privacy Policy explains how Cynthia Coufal Coaching ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, discloses, and protects personal information when you visit https://www.cynthiacoufalcoaching.com/, submit a form, join our email list, respond to an advertisement, or otherwise interact with us online. By using the website, you acknowledge the practices described in this policy. Information We Collect Information you provide We may collect information you choose to provide, such as your name, email address, phone number, age or age range, parent or student status, college or school-related information, communication preferences, and the content of messages, questions, survey responses, or forms you submit. Because our services relate to anxiety, parenting, and college readiness, a message you send may include information about emotional well-being, family concerns, education, or other personal circumstances. Please do not submit medical records, emergency information, Social Security numbers, financial account information, or other highly sensitive information through a general website form. Information collected automatically When you use the website, we and our service providers may automatically collect information such as your IP address, approximate location, browser type, device type, operating system, pages viewed, links clicked, referring website, date and time of access, and identifiers stored in cookies or similar technologies. Information from advertisements and other sources If you submit information through a Meta lead form, Facebook or Instagram advertisement, or another third-party platform, that platform may provide the information you submitted and related campaign information to us. Your interaction with that platform is also governed by its own privacy policy. How We Use Information We may use personal information to respond to questions and requests; deliver resources, newsletters, and other content you requested; provide and improve our coaching programs, events, and website; understand website and advertising performance; personalize communications and advertising; maintain records; prevent fraud or misuse; protect our rights and the safety of others; comply with law; and carry out any other purpose explained when the information is collected or authorized by you. Email Communications If you join our email list or otherwise request communications, we may send educational content, program information, event notices, and promotional emails. You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link in an email or contacting us at ccoufal@cynthiacoufalcoaching.com. We may still send non-promotional messages that are necessary to respond to you or provide a service you requested. Cookies, Analytics, and Advertising We may use cookies, pixels, tags, and similar technologies to operate the website, remember preferences, measure traffic, understand how visitors use the site, evaluate campaigns, and show or measure advertising. Google Analytics We use Google Analytics to help us understand website activity. Google Analytics may collect information such as device and browser information, approximate location, pages visited, session statistics, and a client identifier stored in a first-party cookie. Google processes this information to provide analytics services to us. Learn more about how Google uses information from sites that use its services: Google Privacy & Terms. You can also learn about Google's browser opt-out tool here: Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. Meta Pixel and Meta advertising tools We may use the Meta Pixel and related Meta business tools on pages of our website. These technologies may collect or receive information about your device, browser, website visits, and actions taken on the site. We and Meta may use this information to measure advertisements, create audiences, understand whether an advertisement led to a visit or action, and deliver or personalize advertising. Meta may connect this information with your Facebook or Instagram account, depending on your settings and Meta's practices. For information about Meta's practices and privacy controls, review the Meta Privacy Policy and your advertising preferences within Facebook or Instagram. Your cookie and advertising choices You can control cookies through your browser settings and, if available on our website, through our cookie preference tool. Blocking cookies may affect some website features. You can also adjust advertising preferences in your Facebook, Instagram, or Google account. Where applicable law requires us to recognize an opt-out preference signal, such as Global Privacy Control, we will treat a recognized signal as a request to opt out for the browser or device that sends it. How We Disclose Information We may disclose personal information to vendors and service providers that help us operate our website, manage email, host data, analyze traffic, provide forms, support advertising, prevent fraud, and run our business. These may include website hosting and form providers, email service providers, Google, and Meta. We may also disclose information when required by law or legal process; to protect our rights, users, or others; in connection with a merger, sale, financing, reorganization, or transfer of business assets; or with your direction or consent. We do not sell personal information for money. However, some privacy laws may define the use of advertising cookies or disclosure of online identifiers to advertising partners as "selling," "sharing," or use for "targeted advertising." You may request to opt out of those activities as described below. Your Privacy Rights and Choices Depending on where you live and subject to legal exceptions, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or a copy of your personal information; to opt out of certain targeted advertising, sales, sharing, or profiling; to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent; or to appeal a decision about a privacy request. To make a request, email ccoufal@cynthiacoufalcoaching.com with the subject line "Privacy Request." Please describe your request and the email address or other information you used to interact with us. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. If an authorized agent submits a request for you, we may ask for proof of authorization. We will not discriminate against you for exercising a privacy right. Teenagers and Children's Privacy Our website and services are designed primarily for parents, other adults, college students, and teenagers seeking age-appropriate support. The website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has submitted personal information to us, contact ccoufal@cynthiacoufalcoaching.com so we can review and delete it as appropriate. If you are under 18, please use the website and submit personal information only with the involvement and permission of a parent or legal guardian. Parents and guardians may contact us about information submitted by their minor child. A privacy policy does not replace any separate consent, confidentiality, or service agreement that may apply if a teenager becomes a coaching client. Data Retention We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including providing requested services, maintaining business and tax records, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, and meeting legal obligations. Email subscription information may be retained until you unsubscribe and for a reasonable period afterward to honor your preference. Retention periods vary based on the type of information and why it was collected. Information Security We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information. No website, email, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, so we cannot promise absolute security. If you believe your interaction with us is no longer secure, please contact us promptly. Coaching, Health Information, and Emergencies Our general website forms and marketing systems are not intended for medical records, diagnosis, treatment, or emergency communications. Cynthia Coufal Coaching is not an emergency service. If you or someone else may be in immediate danger or is experiencing an emergency, contact 911 or the appropriate local emergency service rather than using a website form or email. Third-Party Websites and Services Our website may link to third-party websites, platforms, or services. We are not responsible for their privacy or security practices. Review the privacy policy of any third party before providing information to it. Visitors Outside the United States We are based in the United States. If you access the website from another country, your information may be transferred to and processed in the United States or other countries where our service providers operate. Those countries may have different data protection laws than your country of residence. Changes to This Policy We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version on this page and revise the "Last updated" date. If required by law, we will provide additional notice or request consent for material changes.
