1. Nurturing Privacy: Cookies & IP Addresses

When you wander through our online forest, we may plant small “cookie” seeds and record your device’s IP address. These help the site flourish, ensuring navigation flows smoothly, keeping our sanctuary secure, and allowing us to learn which paths are most travelled (via Google Analytics).
You’re in control, adjust cookie settings in your browser or visit resources like All About Cookies or the ICO site to explore more

2. Blossoming Personal Data at Booking

To guide you safely through your yoga journey, we gather essential personal details (name, contact, and health info) when you book classes or workshops . This data is kept under lock and key or encrypted, shared only when a teacher needs to tend to your wellbeing. We hold this data while you’re an active student, and then we gently let it go, erasing it 7 years after your last class. You may contact us anytime to view, amend, or collect your information.

3. Communication Channels: Tending to Your Garden

By signing our registration form, you strengthen our connection, allowing us to contact you via email or phone about class updates and essential notices. You may opt-out anytime, though you might miss important information and updates.

4. Financial Records: Seeds of Transparency

We don’t store your payment details, just your name, date, and amount for tax purposes, retained for 7 years. HMRC sees only what they must in the rare case of inquiry.

5. Mindful Mailing List

Our newsletter sprouts via MailChimp. You will be invited to join, your consent is vital, and you can unsubscribe anytime via the link provided in each email.

6. Emergency Contact Info

Should the unexpected arise, we’ll use your provided emergency contact details only for immediate wellbeing purposes.

7. Paths Beyond Our Grove

If you wander off to another link from our site, remember their path is theirs alone. Their privacy policy, not ours, applies.
