Privacy Policy

Effective Date: October 28, 2025

Welcome to the End of Life Doula Collaborative website. We are committed to honoring life and respecting the privacy of our community. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you visit our website, particularly when you submit a tribute to our memorial section.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information in two ways:

A. Information You Voluntarily Provide to Us: When you submit a tribute for our memorial section, you may voluntarily provide us with personal information. This may include:
- Your name
- Your email address
- The name of the person you are honoring
- The tribute text, stories, or images you provide
B. Information Collected Automatically: Our website is hosted on the Wix.com platform. Like most websites, Wix uses cookies and similar technologies to automatically collect certain technical information. This may include your IP address, browser type, device information, and general activity on our site (like which pages you visited). This data is typically anonymous and helps us understand how visitors engage with our website so we can improve it.

2. How We Use Your Information

We are committed to using your information responsibly and transparently.

For Tributes: The personal information you submit with a tribute is used solely for the purpose of reviewing and posting that tribute on our memorial page. We may use your email address to contact you with questions about your submission, but for no other reason.
For Website Functionality: The anonymous data collected automatically by our hosting platform (Wix) is used to analyze website traffic, maintain security, and improve the overall user experience.
Our Promise: We do not sell, trade, rent, or otherwise share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

3. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We only share your information in very limited circumstances:

With Our Service Provider (Wix): Wix.com provides us with the online platform that allows us to operate our website. Your data may be stored through Wix’s data storage, databases, and the general Wix.com applications. They store your data on secure servers behind a firewall. For more information, you may want to read Wix’s Privacy Policy.
For Legal Reasons: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a legal obligation.

4. Your Data Rights

You have control over the information you provide to us. You have the right to:

Request a copy of the tribute information you have submitted.
Request a correction to your tribute.
Request the removal of your tribute and associated personal data from our website.

To make any of these requests, please contact us at info@eoldc.org

5. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the security of the information you provide. However, please be aware that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure.

6. Children's Privacy

Our website and services are not directed to individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

7. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
