INFORMATION COLLECTED
This Site collects the personal information you voluntarily provide by submitting forms, orders or signing up for email communication, which includes but is not limited to your name, address, telephone number and e-mail address.

Coach may also collect aggregated data, which is data from which the identity of an individual cannot be determined (“Aggregated Data”). Personal Information does not include Aggregated Data. Aggregated Data is data we collect about a group or category of products, services or customers, from which individual customer identities have been removed.

Likewise, information about the products you purchase may be collected and combined with information about the products purchased by others. Aggregate Data helps to understand trends and customer needs so that Coach can better consider new products and services, and tailor existing products and services to customer desires. Since it is not Personal Information, Coach uses Aggregated Data, as appropriate, without restriction.

DISCLOSURE POLICY
I have a number of costs associated with running a coaching business — server space, technical tools, and more. In order to keep my coaching prices low, I use affiliate links in posts when they are available.
The Federal Trade Commission {FTC} revised their guidelines regarding endorsements and testimonials in order to protect the public from any intentionally errant or misleading advertising that has been paid for by a group or company. Since the Your I.F. Coach website is a source of income and may occasionally incorporate endorsements or testimonials, I feel it is important to disclose the following to you:
- The content of the Your I.F. Coach website and email communication is a source of income for me and therefore may be used to promote products, services, or other businesses at my sole discretion.
- I will only choose to promote products/services/businesses that I have, in fact, used and that I feel will be beneficial to my readers and visitors. I feel very strongly about this.
- Products provided by my advertising partners for my review may be given to me free of charge with no cost to myself. This does not ensure a positive review of the product in any way.
- I will always give my genuine opinion about a product or service whether or not I am partnering with the service provider and/or receiving payment to do so.
- My number one priority is accuracy and fairness to you, and I would never compromise the truth just to make a buck. Ever. It’s not worth it to me and it’s not cool to you.
- Mentions of associated products/services/businesses within the content of my blog may or may not be noted as an affiliate in every reference.
Integrity is the cornerstone of my code of ethics, and I hold myself to the highest standards of accuracy while generating a small profit to compensate for my time, research, and ideas.
CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
Protecting your privacy online is an evolving area, and the Coach’s website is constantly evolving to meet these demands. If changes are made to the privacy statement, a new statement will be posted on the Coach’s website and the date at the top of the statement will be changed.
