Privacy Policy
This page explains, in plain language, what information American Doula Academy may receive through this website and how it is handled.
Information we collect
What this website receives
American Doula Academy keeps data collection to a minimum. Most of what we know about you is simply what you decide to tell us.
Information you send us
If you email or call us, we receive whatever you choose to include, such as your name, your contact details, and the questions you ask.
Basic technical information
Like most websites, the servers that deliver these pages may record ordinary technical details such as browser type, device type, and the pages requested.
Information you do not send here
This website has no accounts, no logins, and no forms that submit data. Please do not send sensitive health or financial details to us by email.
How it is used
We use your information to reply and to improve
Information shared with us is used for the purpose you shared it for, and for the ordinary work of running this website.
- Answering your questions about our programs and the certification pathway
- Following up with you when you have asked us to
- Keeping this website working, secure, and reasonably fast
- Improving the clarity of the information we publish
We do not sell your information
American Doula Academy does not sell the personal information it receives through this website. We may rely on service providers, such as a hosting company or an email provider, to operate normally. Those providers only handle information as needed to deliver their service to us.
We may also share information where the law requires it.
Cookies and other sites
Measurement tools and outside links
Cookies and analytics
A cookie is a small file a website can store in your browser. If American Doula Academy adds analytics or any similar measurement tool to this website, we will say so here and describe what it does before or at the time it is introduced.
Most browsers let you block or delete cookies in their settings. Doing so should not prevent you from reading these pages.
Links to other websites
Some pages link to websites we do not run, such as state agencies or professional organisations. Those sites have their own privacy practices, and this policy does not cover them.
When you follow an outside link, it is worth reading that site’s own privacy information.
Children’s privacy
This website is written for adults who are considering doula training. It is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly seek personal information from them. If you believe a child has sent us information, please contact us so we can remove it.
Changes to this policy
Our practices will change as American Doula Academy prepares to open enrollment. When this policy is updated, the revised version will be posted on this page. Please check back if privacy matters to your decision.
