Privacy Policy
This policy explains how I, Saloni Patel, use personal information when you visit salonipatel.co, join my newsletter, send an enquiry or book a discovery call. I am responsible for the personal information described here. You can contact me at salonipatel.co@gmail.com.
What I collect and why
- Newsletter. Your email address, when you sign up through the MailerLite form on this site. I use it to send my newsletter and updates about its launch. MailerLite asks you to confirm your email address before you are added (double opt in). Lawful basis: your consent.
- Enquiries by email. Your name, email address and anything you choose to tell me when you email me. I use it to reply and discuss working together. Lawful basis: my legitimate interest in responding to you, or steps you ask me to take before working together.
- Enquiry, interest and waitlist forms. Buttons on this site link to Google Forms. The form itself shows what it asks for. I use your answers to respond to your enquiry or keep you informed about the experience or community you registered interest in. Lawful basis: my legitimate interest in responding to you, or steps you ask me to take before working together.
- Discovery call bookings. The booking buttons link to Calendly, where you enter the details needed to book. I use them to arrange and hold our call. Lawful basis: steps you ask me to take before working together.
- Visiting the site. Like any website, the service hosting it receives technical information such as your IP address and browser type in order to deliver pages.
Please avoid sharing health or other sensitive details in forms or emails unless you want me to know them. If you do share them, I use them only to respond to you.
Services I use
Built into this site:
- MailerLite stores subscriber details. The signup form is displayed by this website without loading MailerLite’s tracking scripts or storing its browser identifiers. Only when you submit does your browser send your email address to the existing MailerLite form; MailerLite also receives technical connection information such as your IP address. Its form settings control the subscriber group and double opt in. MailerLite privacy policy
- Google Fonts supplies the typefaces, so your browser contacts Google’s servers when pages load. Google privacy policy
- Lovable hosts this website.
Links to other services (nothing loads from them until you click):
- Google Forms for enquiries, interest in The Return and The Inner Rooms waitlist. Google privacy policy
- Calendly for discovery call bookings. Calendly privacy notice
- Instagram for my profiles. Instagram privacy policy
- Email to my Gmail address, provided by Google.
When you use those services, their own privacy policies also apply.
International transfers
Some of these providers may process information outside the UK. Each provider describes in its own privacy policy where it processes data and the safeguards it relies on.
How long I keep information
I keep personal information only for as long as I need it for the purposes above. If you unsubscribe from the newsletter, I stop sending it to you. You can ask me to delete your information at any time.
Your rights
You have the right to ask for a copy of your information, to have it corrected or deleted, to restrict or object to how I use it, and to ask for it to be transferred. Where I rely on your consent, you can withdraw it at any time. To use any of these rights, email salonipatel.co@gmail.com.
Leaving the newsletter
Every newsletter email includes an unsubscribe link. You can also email me and I will remove you.
Cookies and browser storage
This site doesn’t set advertising cookies. It uses browser storage as follows:
- Your choices (always on): remembers the choices you save in cookie settings.
- Newsletter form: shows the email field immediately without loading optional tracking or storing a MailerLite browser identifier. Submitting your email requests the newsletter; it does not grant permission for optional browser storage.
- Remember popup choices (only if you allow it): remembers your visit time, whether the newsletter invitation has already appeared during this visit, and whether you have signed up, so it isn’t shown again during the same visit or after you sign up.
The newsletter invitation can appear before you make a choice, without contacting MailerLite. A saved rejection prevents automatic invitations, but you can still open the form from the footer and sign up. Closing the popup does not grant permission. If you don’t allow popup choices to be remembered, the invitation may appear again each time a page loads. The form includes a hidden spam trap and uses MailerLite’s existing form submission checks; no spam-protection setting is switched off.
Complaints
If you have a concern, please contact me first so I can try to put it right. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK data protection regulator, at ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint or on 0303 123 1113.
Changes
I may update this policy from time to time. The current version will always be on this page.
