Respecting your privacy.

Last updated: September 7, 2026.

Scope of this policy

This Privacy Policy applies to the public Faithfully Connected Counseling & Coaching LLC website, including general inquiry forms, downloadable resources, Rooted Magazine pages, and other public-facing website features. It explains how information may be collected, used, disclosed, retained, and protected when you use this website.

Information you choose to share

The general inquiry form may collect your name, email address, optional phone number, preferred contact method, area of interest, general availability for a reply, how you heard about Faithfully Connected, whether you are interested in temperament information or prayer, and any general message you choose to provide.

Please do not submit sensitive health information through the public website form. This includes diagnoses, treatment information, medications, trauma history, detailed mental-health symptoms, medical records, insurance information, Social Security numbers, financial-account information, or information about an emergency or crisis.

How information may be used

Information submitted through the website may be used to respond to questions, provide requested resources, discuss services, follow up about appointments, workshops, collaborations, or Faithfully Connected content, maintain ordinary business records, prevent misuse or fraud, and operate or improve the website.

If you provide contact information and select a preferred contact method, Faithfully Connected may use that method to respond to your inquiry. A request for a reply is not treated as consent to unrelated marketing messages.

Clinical records, HIPAA, and this public website

This public website and its general inquiry form are not intended to function as a patient portal, clinical intake system, electronic health record, or repository for protected health information. Submitting a website inquiry does not create a counseling or coaching relationship.

This website Privacy Policy is separate from any privacy notice, informed-consent document, client agreement, telehealth consent, or other documentation that may apply if a professional relationship is later established. If laws such as HIPAA apply to particular services or records, any required privacy notices or client-facing documentation should be provided separately through the appropriate service process.

Website, form, scheduling, and payment providers

The website may rely on third-party providers for hosting, form processing, email delivery, scheduling, payment processing, video, social media, embedded content, analytics, or similar functions. Those providers may process information according to their own privacy practices and contractual terms. Faithfully Connected should limit the information sent through public website tools to what is reasonably necessary for the intended purpose.

Cookies, analytics, and technical information

Hosting and website-service providers may automatically receive limited technical information such as IP address, browser or device type, operating system, pages visited, referring pages, timestamps, and approximate location derived from an IP address. This information may be used for security, reliability, troubleshooting, fraud prevention, and basic website analytics.

Because this website relates to counseling and wellness services, Faithfully Connected should use particular care before adding advertising pixels, session-replay tools, or other tracking technologies that could receive information about a visitor's use of health-related pages or appointment-related activity.

When information may be shared

Information may be shared with service providers that help operate the website or business, when reasonably necessary to respond to a request you make, when required by law or legal process, or when reasonably necessary to protect the rights, safety, security, or property of Faithfully Connected, website users, or others. Faithfully Connected does not represent that information submitted through ordinary public website tools is appropriate for confidential clinical communications.

Security

Reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards may be used to protect information handled through the website. However, no website, email system, text message, internet transmission, or storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure. For that reason, sensitive clinical or health information should not be sent through the public inquiry form or ordinary email unless Faithfully Connected separately directs you to an appropriate secure method.

Data retention

Website inquiry information may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to the inquiry, provide requested services or resources, maintain appropriate business records, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, prevent abuse, or protect legitimate business interests. Third-party providers may have their own retention practices.

Your choices and requests

You may contact Faithfully Connected to ask about personal information you previously submitted through the public website or to request that it be corrected or deleted. Some information may need to be retained where reasonably necessary for legal, security, recordkeeping, or other legitimate purposes.

Third-party links and embedded content

This website may contain links to scheduling services, payment providers, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, Amazon, podcast platforms, or other third-party websites. Those services are governed by their own privacy policies and practices. Faithfully Connected does not control how a third party collects or uses information after you leave this website or interact directly with that service.

Not an emergency or crisis channel

This website, its contact form, email address, and social-media accounts are not emergency or crisis services and are not continuously monitored. If you are in immediate danger or experiencing a crisis in the United States, call 911 or call or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated as the website, services, providers, scheduling tools, payment tools, or legal requirements change. The effective date above identifies the current posted version.
