ANALYTICS
I use Google Analytics to track anonymous usage data. Information is collected through the use of cookies and is used to analyze site performance. This provides gives me information on page views and site traffic (but NEVER anything regarding your name or other web browsing habits. You remain anonymous).

THIRD PARTIES
You will sometimes find links to other 3rd party websites, partners, sponsors, advertisers or other 3rd parties. I have no control over the content of those sites, the data collected if you choose to visit such a site, or their privacy policies. These sites may change their privacy policies at any time. When you choose to browse any website, you are subject to that site’s own privacy policy and data collection measures.

If you sign up for my newsletter, Convert Kit will store your name and email address. You may unsubscribe at any time via the unsubscribe link in any email and also may request that your information be deleted completely by emailing admin@everymomentmom.com
Google Analytics only retains info about visitors, pages viewed, etc. GA does not collect any info that could identify you personally (but they collect data from the web in various forms and aggregate it, so see further info below to manage that data).
Data collected by my shopping cart (once it is active in the future), Woocommerce, is only used by me to manage orders. Woocommerce does not collect any data from me (I have opted out of their data collection).
Data collected by social media companies become part of the data that Google collects; see the note below about managing your Google data.
WordPress itself does not share any data with anyone.
HOW LONG I RETAIN YOUR DATA
CONVERT KIT
My newsletter service will retain your name and email until you ask me to have you “forgotten” which takes 30 days to happen. Email me directly (you can use my contact form) and ask me to “forget” you from the mailing list. When I remove you, I am able to completely remove your data. If you request to be “forgotten”, your data will be completely removed. Everything will be permanently deleted including reports, clicks, profile data, etc.” Once initiated, data is entirely gone within 30 days. By clicking an “unsubscribe” link in an email, you will only stop receiving emails, but Convert Kit will retain your data. If you would like your data completely removed, you must request to be “forgotten”.
GOOGLE ANALYTICS
Google Analytics keeps data on site traffic up to 14 months, the shortest retention period available (but remember, site stats do not have any info about who you are personally). While my site does not give Google any personal info about you, other websites you visit might have at some point…you can find out more & use tools to manage your Google data here: https://privacy.google.com/your-data.html.
AMAZON

WOOCOMMERCE
Data is not yet actively collected by Woocommerce as I do not yet have a shop open. The Woocommerce cookies that are set are “waiting” for data, but since the shop is not live or available, there is no actual data collected by them.
OTHER 3rd PARTIES
When you visit other 3rd party websites via provided links, you should look at their privacy policy to find out how your data will be collected, used, and shared.
