Website privacy
Cookie Policy
This policy explains how cookies and similar technologies may be used on The Baby Whisperer website and the choices available to visitors.
This Cookie Policy explains how The Baby Whisperer uses cookies and similar technologies on thebabywhisperer.com. It describes the types of technologies that may be used, why they are used, and the choices available to visitors.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website or service may store on your browser or device. Similar technologies can include local storage, pixels, tags, scripts, and other tools that help websites operate, remember preferences, understand usage, or support third-party features.
Some cookies last only for the current browsing session. Others remain on a device for a set period of time or until they are deleted.
2. How we use cookies
The Baby Whisperer may use cookies and similar technologies to keep the website functioning, remember visitor choices, support forms and scheduling tools, understand website performance, and enable features provided by third parties.
| Category | Purpose | Consent |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Support core website operation, security, network management, form functionality, and storage of cookie or privacy choices. | Generally used because they are necessary for the website or a feature you request. |
| Preferences / functionality | Remember choices or settings that improve how the website works for you. | Used in accordance with applicable law and available consent settings. |
| Analytics / performance | Help us understand how visitors use the website, which pages are useful, and where the site may need improvement. | Where required by law, these are used only after consent. |
| Third-party / embedded features | Support tools such as appointment scheduling, embedded content, or other services supplied by external providers. | May depend on the feature, provider, location, and consent choice. |
The exact cookies and similar technologies used on the site can change as WordPress, plugins, scheduling tools, consent tools, analytics settings, and other providers are updated.
3. Strictly necessary technologies
Some technologies are needed for the website to operate properly or to provide a feature you specifically request. These may support security, load balancing, forms, basic site functionality, or remembering your cookie preferences.
Because these technologies are necessary for the requested website function, they may not always be optional.
4. Optional cookies and consent
Where applicable law requires consent before non-essential cookies or similar technologies are used, The Baby Whisperer will seek that consent through the website's available cookie or consent controls.
Choosing not to allow optional cookies should not prevent access to the basic website, although certain optional features or third-party content may work differently or may be unavailable.
5. Third-party services
Some pages may use services provided by third parties. For example, appointment scheduling or embedded content can cause a third-party provider to receive technical information or place cookies when that feature is loaded or used.
Third-party providers control their own cookies and similar technologies. Their practices are governed by their own privacy and cookie policies, which may change independently of this policy.
Links to Facebook, Instagram, retailers, or other external websites do not by themselves mean those providers can set cookies through this website before you visit or load their services. Once you leave this website or interact with an embedded third-party feature, the third party's own practices may apply.
6. Your cookie choices
You can control cookies in several ways:
- Use any cookie banner or cookie settings tool made available on this website to accept, refuse, or change optional cookie choices.
- Use your browser settings to block or delete cookies.
- Adjust privacy settings for third-party services directly with those providers where available.
- Return to the website's cookie settings if a consent-management option is provided and you wish to change a prior choice.
Blocking all cookies can affect website functionality, and deleting cookies may also remove saved preferences.
7. Privacy signals and applicable rights
Where required by applicable law, we will honor legally recognized privacy choices and opt-out mechanisms that apply to the website's data practices.
A cookie preference control is not necessarily the same as a legal request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. If The Baby Whisperer's practices ever require a separate legally mandated opt-out mechanism, the appropriate notice and control will be provided.
8. Children
This website is intended to provide information and services to parents, guardians, and adult caregivers. It is not designed to collect personal information directly from children under 13.
If you believe a child has provided personal information directly through the website without appropriate authorization, contact us so the matter can be reviewed.
9. Changes to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in technology, website functionality, third-party services, legal requirements, or our practices. The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
