Privacy Policy

This privacy policy describes how HealingNaturally.co.nz  uses and protects any information that you give us. We are committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected. If you provide us with personal information through HealingNaturally.co.nz , you can be assured that it will only be used in accordance with this privacy statement.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, HealingNaturally.co.nz collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. HealingNaturally.co.nz’s purpose in collecting non-personally-identifying information is to better understand how HealingNaturally.co.nz’s visitors use its website.

HealingNaturally.co.nz  also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. HealingNaturally.co.nz  does not use IP addresses to identify its visitors, however, and does not disclose such information, other than under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information, as described below.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to HealingNaturally.co.nz  choose to interact with HealingNaturally.co.nz  in ways that require HealingNaturally.co.nz  to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that HealingNaturally.co.nz  gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who use our forums to provide a name and contact details.

In each case, HealingNaturally.co.nz  collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfil the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with HealingNaturally.co.nz . HealingNaturally.co.nz  does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. Visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

All of the information that is collected on HealingNaturally.co.nz  will be handled in accordance with GDPR legislation.

Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organisations may be located outside of your home country. By using HealingNaturally.co.nz, you consent to the transfer of such information to them.

HealingNaturally.co.nz  will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to project administrators, employees, contractors, and affiliated organisations, as described above, HealingNaturally.co.nz  discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, if you give permission to have your information shared, or when HealingNaturally.co.nz  believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of HealingNaturally.co.nz , third parties, or the public at large.

If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users.
