🖤 Privacy Policy for Healing Workbooks
Last updated: April 26, 2025
1. What This Is
Healing Workbooks is built on trust.
Not the easy kind… the hard kind.
The kind where you show up raw, uncertain, and still willing to reach toward something real.
That means protecting your information like it matters… because it does.
Here’s exactly how your data is handled here: no secrets, no games.
2. What Information Is Collected
When you interact with Healing Workbooks, a few basic pieces of information may be collected:
Your email address (when you subscribe or download resources)
Your name (if you choose to provide it)
Payment information (if you become a paid subscriber—handled securely by trusted third-party processors like Stripe)
Analytics about site usage (through standard tools like Google Analytics or Substack metrics, used to understand how people engage with the work)
That’s it.
No hidden tracking.
No selling your data to the highest bidder.
No bullshit.
3. How Your Information Is Used
Your information is used for:
Sending you the content you signed up for (newsletters, journal access, updates)
Delivering any purchased products
Improving the Healing Workbooks experience for everyone
Offering support if you reach out with questions or issues
You will never be added to unrelated email lists.
You will never be sold out to advertisers.
You will never be spammed with irrelevant offers.
If you trust me enough to show up here, I will honor that trust.
4. Third-Party Services
Healing Workbooks uses certain third-party services to deliver content and handle transactions, including:
Email newsletters and subscription management (via Substack)
Secure payment processing (via Stripe)
Site analytics (via Google Analytics or similar tools)
These services have their own privacy policies.
I chose them because they align with the spirit of protecting your data, but I always encourage you to read their terms if you want full transparency.
5. Your Rights
You have the right to:
Access the information Healing Workbooks has about you
Update or correct your information
Unsubscribe from emails at any time
Request deletion of your data
You can do all of this by managing your account settings, or simply reaching out directly.
No guilt.
No hoops to jump through.
Your autonomy is yours.
6. Security
Your information is stored securely.
All reasonable steps are taken to protect your data from misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, or destruction.
That said, no system is bulletproof.
If something ever compromises your information, you will be notified as soon as possible, with honesty and without excuses.
7. Children’s Privacy
Healing Workbooks is intended for adults.
If you’re under 18, please step away from this work until you're of age to walk it responsibly.
8. Changes to This Policy
As Healing Workbooks grows, this Privacy Policy may evolve.
Significant changes will be communicated clearly, because you deserve to know when something shifts.
9. Contact
If you have any questions about this policy, or about how your information is used, reach out.
This isn’t a place for secrets.
This is a place for clarity and consent.
