Last Updated: October 24, 2025
Effective Date: October 24, 2025

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Katherine Sigblad (“I,” “me,” or “my”) collects, uses, and protects your personal information when you visit www.katherinesigblad.com (the “Site”), book a service, or otherwise interact with me online.

I value your privacy and am committed to safeguarding your personal data in accordance with applicable privacy laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), and other relevant data protection frameworks.

2. Information I Collect

I collect personal information that you voluntarily provide, such as:

  • Contact Information: your first and last name, and email address (via contact forms, newsletter signups, or booking inquiries).

  • Booking & Payment Information: when you book a service through Calendly and pay via Stripe, limited billing details are processed securely by those third-party providers. I do not store or have access to full payment information such as credit card numbers.

  • Automatically Collected Information: when you visit the Site, Squarespace Analytics may automatically collect data such as your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, and general location (city/country level).

3. How I Use Your Information

I use your information to:

  • Respond to your inquiries and communicate about my services.

  • Schedule and deliver consultations or related support.

  • Process payments and manage bookings.

  • Send you updates, newsletters, or marketing emails if you’ve opted in.

  • Maintain the security and performance of my website.

  • Comply with legal or regulatory obligations.

I do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.

4. Legal Bases for Processing (for EU/UK Users)

If you are located in the European Union or United Kingdom, I process your personal data under one or more of the following legal bases:

  • Consent: when you subscribe to my newsletter or contact me voluntarily.

  • Contract: when it is necessary to fulfill an agreement (e.g., to deliver a consultation).

  • Legitimate Interest: to maintain and improve the website, respond to messages, and prevent fraud.

  • Legal Obligation: to comply with applicable laws and regulations.

5. Data Retention

I retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected or to comply with legal obligations. You can request deletion of your data at any time (see Section 9).

6. Sharing Your Information

I may share information only with trusted third parties that help me operate my business, including:

  • Squarespace (website hosting and analytics)

  • Calendly (appointment scheduling)

  • Stripe (payment processing)

  • Email marketing provider (for newsletter delivery, if applicable)

These third parties process your data only as needed to perform their functions and under strict data protection agreements.

7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

The Site uses cookies and similar technologies through Squarespace Analytics to improve functionality and user experience. You can manage or disable cookies in your browser settings.

8. Data Security

I take appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no system can be 100% secure, and you use the Site at your own risk.

9. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

  • Access the personal data I hold about you.

  • Request correction, deletion, or restriction of your data.

  • Withdraw consent at any time (for marketing communications).

  • Data portability (to receive a copy of your information).

  • Lodge a complaint with a data protection authority if you believe your rights have been violated.

To exercise these rights, contact me at hello@katherinesigblad.com.

10. Children’s Privacy

My services and website are intended for adults. I do not knowingly collect or store personal data from children under 18.

11. International Data Transfers

Because I may serve clients globally, your data may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your own. In such cases, I ensure that appropriate safeguards (such as Standard Contractual Clauses) are in place to protect your data.

12. Updates to This Policy

I may update this Privacy Policy occasionally to reflect legal, technical, or business changes. The “Last Updated” date at the top will indicate the most recent revision.
