Just like you, I am sensitive to the data that the online world around me collects so, for anyone visiting the site I have prepared the following publicity statement.
This page outlines the types of personal information I receive and collect when you use LifeCoachingProfessionally.com, as well as some of the steps we take to safeguard information.
I hope this will help you make an informed decision about sharing personal information with me but if you still have a question please contact me via this page.
Finally, I realise you may be looking for some information as it relates to the FTC and Affiliates, or my legal position. You will find the FTC and Affiliate info here and the Legal info here.
