Calm Body Birth is the practice of Alanna Brimer, a Birth & Postpartum Doula and Certified Bradley Method Instructor based in Suwanee, Georgia. This page explains what information this website collects, why, and what you can do about it.
The short version: I collect as little as possible, I don’t sell it, and I don’t share it with anyone who isn’t helping me run this site.
Information you give me
When you fill out a contact or inquiry form on this site, or email me directly, I receive whatever you choose to send — typically your name, email address, phone number, due date, and a note about the support you’re looking for.
I use that information only to reply to you, answer questions, schedule a consultation, and provide doula or childbirth education services. Form submissions are stored in this website’s database and are also emailed to me.
Please don’t send detailed medical information through the website contact form. Email and web forms aren’t a secure channel. Once we’re working together, I’ll let you know how to share health details safely.
Client records
Records I keep for clients — birth preferences, notes from prenatal visits, birth and postpartum notes — are kept confidential and separate from this website. I don’t share them with anyone without your permission, except where the law requires it or where there is an immediate risk to someone’s safety.
If I’d like to use a photo, quote, or piece of your story in my teaching, on this site, or on social media, I will ask you first and you are free to say no.
Information collected automatically
Like most websites, this one is hosted on a server that keeps standard access logs — your IP address, browser type, the pages you visited, and the date and time. These logs help keep the site running and secure. They aren’t used to build a profile of you.
Cookies
This site doesn’t use advertising or tracking cookies. WordPress may set a cookie if you submit a form or leave a comment, so you don’t have to retype your details, and it sets cookies for me when I log in to manage the site. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings; the site will still work.
Embedded content from other websites
Some pages may include embedded content such as videos, maps, a scheduling tool, or an Instagram feed. Those services can see your IP address and set their own cookies, exactly as if you had visited them directly. Their privacy policies apply to that content, not mine.
Who I share information with
I don’t sell, rent, or trade your information. I share it only with the services that make this practice run — website hosting, email, and any scheduling or payment tools I use — and only to the extent they need it to do their job. I may also disclose information if required by law.
How long I keep it
Inquiries that don’t turn into work are kept for about a year, then deleted. Client records are kept for seven years after we finish working together, which is standard practice for care records. You can ask me to delete your information sooner.
Your choices
You can ask me at any time to tell you what information I hold about you, correct anything that’s wrong, delete it, or stop emailing you. Just email me and I’ll take care of it. There’s no charge, and asking won’t affect the care you receive.
Children
This site is meant for adults. I don’t knowingly collect information from children under 13 through the website. If you believe a child has sent me information here, please let me know and I’ll delete it.
Changes to this policy
If I change how I handle information, I’ll update this page and change the date at the top.
