1. Information We Collect

We collect information you voluntarily provide, including:

  • Contact details: your name, email address, and any information you share through contact or intake forms.

  • Payment information: processed securely through Squarespace Checkout; we do not store credit card numbers.

  • Session materials: Field Notes, reflections, and other documents created during mentorship or editorial sessions. These are treated as confidential but are not clinical or medical records.

  • Newsletter sign-ups: When you subscribe via Substack, your email address is stored and managed through Substack’s secure platform.

We may also collect limited, non-identifying information through Squarespace (e.g., cookies, analytics) to understand site performance and improve your experience.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

  • Communicate about services, scheduling, and resources.

  • Provide and personalize mentorship, editorial, or workshop experiences.

  • Manage payments and bookings securely.

  • Share updates and writings via the Substack newsletter (you may unsubscribe at any time).

We never sell or share your personal information for marketing or advertising purposes.

3. Confidentiality and Boundaries

All written and verbal exchanges in 1:1 sessions, workshops, or correspondence are kept private.

  • Field Notes and written reflections are confidential between the client and facilitator.

  • These materials are not considered therapeutic or clinical documentation and do not establish a therapist-client relationship.

  • Mentorship and editorial services are creative and educational in nature and should not replace professional medical or mental health care.

If at any point it becomes clear that additional or alternative support is appropriate, referrals to licensed professionals may be provided.

4. Data Storage and Security

Your data is stored securely via Squarespace, Google Workspace, and Substack’s encrypted systems.
We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, or misuse.

  • Request to access, correct, or delete your personal data.

  • Unsubscribe from the Substack newsletter at any time.

  • Decline to provide personal information, though this may limit access to certain services.
