Information We Collect and How We Collect It

When you access the Website, its content and its services, we will learn certain information about you during your visit. We collect this information:

  • From third parties, for example, our business partners.

Information You Provide to Us.  

We collect and maintain information that you voluntarily submit to us during your use of the Website and our Services (collectively, “personal information”). For example:

  • when you register for and purchase an online course sold through this Website, you may provide us certain information including your name, e-mail address, screen name, password, demographic information, the health topics that interest you, and your credit card and billing information;

  • if you purchase any other product or service directly from Dr. Sally’s Kitchen through the Website, we collect your name, address, billing information such as credit card information, and details of purchase transactions you carry out;

You are not required to provide any personal information to merely access or visit the Website. 

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), this means we are regulated under the General Data Protection Regulation which applies across the European Union (including in the United Kingdom) and we are responsible as data controller of that personal information for the purposes of those laws.

Information We Collect Through Automatic Data Collection Technology.

This Website is hosted by Squarespace and therefore uses cookies and similar technologies, which are small files or pieces of text that download to a device when a visitor accesses a website or app. For information about viewing the cookies dropped on your device, visit The cookies Squarespace uses.

We use analytics cookies to view site traffic, activity, and other data. This nonpersonal information will generally include information about your location, your traffic pattern through our Website, and any communications between your computer and our Website. Among other things, we may collect data about your computer hardware and software, your Internet connection, your IP address, your operating system, your browser type, domain names, access dates and times, referring website addresses, and information about the areas of the Website you visit and search terms you use on this Website and about the links you may select from within this Website to other areas of the Internet. We also may use these technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or other online services (behavioral tracking) such as the websites you visited just before and just after this Website. 

Any such information collected automatically is used for statistical data and will not include personal information. We use such technologies and the information collected by them to improve the Website and our service as it enables us to analyze Website performance, estimate our audience size, track usage patterns, save information from your previous visits about your preferences to customize your experience and speed up your searches and recognize you when you return to our Website. 

As with all websites hosted on Squarespace, this Website uses font files from Google Fonts and Adobe Fonts. To properly display this site to you, servers, where the font files are stored, may receive personal information about you, including:

  • Information about your browser, network, or device

  • Your IP address

We also reserve the right to use technological equivalents of cookies, including social media pixels. These pixels allow social media sites to track visitors to outside websites so as to tailor advertising messages users see while visiting that social media website. We reserve the right to use these pixels in compliance with the policies of the various social media sites.​

If your browser sends a "Do Not Track" signal, only a generic cookie will be placed on your device while the Website is accessed.

To the extent that you voluntarily provide personal information to us, our systems will associate the automatically collected information with your personal information.

ction and credit risk reduction.

  • To comply with any legal obligations such as court order, law or legal process, including to respond to any government or regulatory request and when compelled by a court or other governmental entity to do so. 

  • For any other purpose disclosed by us when you provide the information.

  • With your consent.

As previously noted, if you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), this means we are the ‘data controller” under the General Data Protection Regulation of any personal information collected through the Website, and we determine the purposes for which and the manner in which any personal information is used and processed. However, we pay for the services of third party ‘data processors’ who hold and/or process personal information of users of the Website on our behalf. We may have multiple data processors at any given time, including, but not limited to:

  • our email marketing and email management software service provider;

  • our Website hosting and platform service provider Squarespace; 

  • payment merchants for purchases directly through our Website;

  • Google;

  • Facebook;

  • Instagram, and other social media sites.

Note that, while the above entities act as data processors on our behalf, some or all of them may also act as data controllers in their own rights. For example, if you purchase a product or service directly through our Website, payment merchants decide which information they need from our customers in order to process their payments correctly. The payment merchants or other data processing entities may also exercise control over the other purposes that a customer's data is used for, for example direct marketing of their products and services, which is not within our control. The payment merchants or other data processing entities also have legal requirements of their own to meet, such as regulations relating to the use and retention of payment card data or other personal data. And, finally, each data processor has its own terms and conditions and privacy policies that apply directly to our Website users.

Because the Website is hosted on Squarespace, we agreed to Squarespace’s Data Processing Addendum, which addresses how Squarespace processes data of our Website visitors on our behalf.

Message Boards, Chats and Interactive Forums

We may make message boards and other interactive forums available as part of the Services such as private member or community groups.  You should be aware that any information which you post to these interactive forums or otherwise choose to make publicly available may be disclosed and available to all users who have access to that portion of the Website or Services, and is therefore no longer private. By using these interactive forums, you agree that we are not responsible for any information that you disclose or communicate in such forums, and any disclosures you make are at your own risk.

Use and Transfer of Your Information Out of the European Economic Area (EEA), the UK and Switzerland

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) requires certain safeguards when transferring personal data from outside the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom (UK) and Switzerland to "third countries," which are all countries outside these protected areas, including the United States. This Website is operated in the United States, and third parties with whom we might share your personal information as explained above are also located in the United States and Canada. If you are located in the EEA, the UK, Switzerland or elsewhere outside of the United States or Canada, please be aware that any information you provide to us will be transferred to the United States and Canada. By using this Website, participating in any of our Services and/or providing your information, you consent to this transfer.

The United States and Canada do not have the same data protection laws as the EEA, United Kingdom and Switzerland. While the European Commission has not given a formal decision that United States or Canada provide an adequate level of data protection similar to those which apply in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland, any transfer of your personal information will be subject to the derogation in Article 49 permitting non-repetitive transfers that concern only a limited number of data subjects, as permitted by Article 49 of the General Data Protection Regulation that is designed to help safeguard your privacy rights and give you remedies in the unlikely event of a misuse of your personal information.

If you would like further information, see How to Contact Us below. We will not otherwise transfer your personal data outside of the EEA, the UK or Switzerland, or to any organization (or subordinate bodies) governed by public international law or which is set up under any agreement between two or more countries.

How Long Your Personal Information Will Be Kept

We will retain all non-client or customer personal information until you let us know you would like for us to delete it or unsubscribe from our e-mail contacts, which you are free to do at any time. However, if you make a purchase from our Website, we will hold personal data in our files for six years as advised by the IRS. 

How We Protect Your Information: Data Security and Information Storage

We employ commercially reasonable methods to ensure the security of the information you provide to us and the information we collect automatically. This includes using standard security protocols and working only with reputable third-party vendors. We limit access to your personal information to those who have a genuine business need to know it. Those processing your information will do so only in an authorized manner and are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

If Dr. Sally’s Kitchen collects sensitive personal information (such as credit card data), that information is encrypted and transmitted to Dr. Sally’s Kitchen in a secure way. Customers can verify this by looking for a closed lock icon at the bottom of their web browser or looking for “https” at the beginning of the address of the web page.

However, please note that unfortunately no data transmission over the Internet or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted to our Website.  You acknowledge that (a) there are security and privacy limitations of the Internet which are beyond our control; (b) the security, integrity, and privacy of any and all information and data exchanged between you and us through this Website cannot be guaranteed; and (c) any such information and data may be viewed or tampered within transit by a third party. Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the Website.

We will notify you and any applicable authorities of a suspected data security breach where we are legally required to do so.

Please note that any comments or information that you post on the Website, including Dr. Sally’s Kitchen social media pages, become public, and third parties may use your information. Dr. Sally’s Kitchen is not responsible for any unauthorized uses by third parties in such context. You disclose such information at your own risk.

Passwords to Access Purchased Products and Services 

To use certain features of our Website, you may be issued a unique or group username and password, which you will receive through your registration and/or purchase process. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of the password and account, and are responsible for all activities (whether by you or by others) that occur under your password or account.

You are not permitted to share your username and/or password with anyone. If you share your username and/or password with another person, we reserve the right to immediately terminate your access to the Website or Service. We cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to protect your password or account information. You are responsible for activities that take place using your password(s) and within your account. If you share your password(s) with anyone, they may be able to obtain access to your personal information at your own risk. 

You agree to notify Dr. Sally’s Kitchen immediately of any unauthorized use of your password or account or any other breach of security, and to ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session.

By using this Website, you agree to enter true and accurate information as part of the registration, purchase process and otherwise. If you enter a false email address, or other false or inaccurate information, we have the right to immediately inactivate your account or block your participation in any feature or Service delivered on or through this Website. 

We will use our best efforts to keep your password(s) private and will not otherwise share your password(s) without your consent, except as necessary when the law requires it or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary, particularly when disclosure is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be causing injury to others or interfering with our rights or property.

Third-party Use of Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies

Some content or applications on the Website may be served by third parties, content providers and application providers. These third parties may use cookies alone or in conjunction with web beacons or other tracking technologies to collect information about you when you use our Website. We do not control these third parties’ tracking technologies or how they may be used. If you have any questions, you should contact the responsible provider directly.

Third-Party Links 

We may provide links to third-party websites, products, or services on this Website. This Privacy Policy applies solely to information collected by us through the Website or our Services and does not apply to the privacy practices of such third parties. We do not monitor, control, or endorse the information collection or privacy practices of any third parties. Third-party websites may or may not have separate and independent privacy policies. When you access another website or purchase products or services from a third-party website, use of any information you provide is governed by the privacy policy of the operator of the website you are visiting or the provider of such products or services. We strongly encourage you to become familiar with the privacy practices of every website you visit and to contact them if you have any questions about their respective privacy policies and practices. We, therefore, have no responsibility or liability for the content and activities of these third-party linked websites or their privacy policy (or lack thereof).

Facebook

As advertisers on Facebook and through our Facebook page, we (not Facebook) may collect content or information from a Facebook user and such information may be used in the same manner specified in this Privacy Policy. You consent to our collection of such information.

We abide by Facebook’s Data Use Restrictions.

  • Any ad data collected, received or derived from our Facebook ad (“Facebook advertising data”) is only shared with someone acting on our behalf, such as our service provider. We are responsible for ensuring that our service providers protect any Facebook advertising data or any other information obtained from us, limit our use of all of that information, and keep it confidential and secure.

  • We do not use Facebook advertising data for any purpose (including retargeting, commingling data across multiple advertisers’ campaigns, or allowing piggybacking or redirecting with tags), except on an aggregate and anonymous basis (unless authorized by Facebook) and only to assess the performance and effectiveness of our Facebook advertising campaigns.

  • We do not use Facebook advertising data, including the targeting criteria for a Facebook ad, to build, append to, edit, influence, or augment user profiles, including profiles associated with any mobile device identifier or another unique identifier that identifies any particular user, browser, computer or device.

  • We do not transfer any Facebook advertising data (including anonymous, aggregate, or derived data) to any ad network, ad exchange, data broker or other advertising or monetization-related service.

Your Rights: Accessing, Correcting and Deleting Your Information

Please note that we may retain some or all of the information you submit for backups, archiving, prevention of fraud and abuse, analytics, satisfaction of legal obligations, or where we otherwise reasonably believe that we have a legitimate reason to do so.

You may also decline to share certain personal information with us, in which case we may not be able to provide you with some of the features and functionality of our Services. 

If you place an order through the Website, we will maintain your order information for our records unless and until you ask us to delete this information. We are required to keep some basic information about our customers including transaction data for tax and legal purposes and therefore there is some information that cannot be deleted.

California Online Privacy Protection Act

The California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA) is the first state law in the nation to require commercial websites and online services to post a privacy policy. The law’s reach stretches well beyond California to require a person or company in the United States (and conceivably the world) that operates a website collecting personally identifiable information from California consumers to post a conspicuous privacy policy on its website stating exactly the information being collected and those individuals with whom it is being shared, and to comply with this policy. – See more at: http://consumercal.org/california-online-privacy-protection-act-caloppa/#sthash.0FdRbT51.dpuf

Pursuant to CalOPPA we agree to the following:

  • Users can visit our Website anonymously

  • There is a link to our Privacy Policy on our home page or at a minimum on the first significant page after entering our Website.

  • Our Privacy Policy link includes the word ‘Privacy’ and can be easily be found on the page specified above.

  • Users will be notified of any changes to our Privacy Policy:

    • On our Website Privacy Policy page

  • Users are able to change their personal information:

    • By emailing us

    • By logging into their account on our Website if they have one

As noted above, if your browser sends a "Do Not Track" signal, only a generic cookie will be placed on your device while the Website is accessed.

California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) took effect on January 1, 2020 and is intended to protect the personal information of California residents. The CCPA has certain threshold requirements which a company must meet in order to be required to comply with its provisions.  Upon information and belief, we do not meet those thresholds.  In the event of a change in our status, and if the data that you provide in the course of your use of the Website is governed by CCPA, we will abide by the relevant portions of the CCPA.

If you are a resident of the state of California, you may have the right to: request disclosure of the personal information we have collected about you and the types of third parties with whom it has been shared; request a portable copy of your information; opt out from marketing messages or the sale of your information to third parties; and request deletion of your personal information. To make these requests, please contact us at sally@drsallyskitchen.com.
