This Privacy Policy explains how One Small Calm (“we”, “us”, or “our”) handles personal information when you visit onesmallcalm.com, contact us, or interact with our content. The website is operated from Australia and is available to visitors worldwide.
Who Is Responsible for Your Information?
One Small Calm is responsible for the personal information described in this policy. Privacy questions and requests can be sent to onesmallcalm@gmail.com.
Information We Collect
Information You Choose to Provide
- Your name, email address, message, and any other information you choose to submit through a contact form.
Please do not send sensitive personal, health, financial, identification, or confidential information that is not needed for your enquiry.
Information Collected Automatically
- Technical information such as IP address, device type, browser type, operating system, referring page, pages viewed, and approximate location derived from an IP address.
- Security and server logs used to keep the website available, diagnose faults, and detect misuse.
- Analytics information about visits, interactions, traffic sources, and general website performance. Analytics providers may use cookies or similar technologies where permitted.
- Affiliate-link interaction data. When you select an Amazon or other retailer link, the retailer and affiliate network may collect identifiers and activity under their own privacy terms. We do not receive your payment-card details or full retailer account information.
- Information collected by embedded third-party content. An embedded video, post, or other feature may behave as though you visited the provider’s website directly.
How We Use Information
- To operate, protect, troubleshoot, and improve the website.
- To respond to messages and requests.
- To understand which content is useful and how visitors find the site.
- To comply with legal obligations, enforce our terms, and prevent fraud or misuse.
- To send requested communications where you have asked for them and can unsubscribe.
Legal Bases for EEA and UK Visitors
Where the EU GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we rely on one or more lawful bases: your consent for optional cookies or requested communications; our legitimate interests in operating, securing, and improving a proportionate information website; steps taken at your request when you contact us; and compliance with legal obligations. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting earlier lawful processing. When we rely on legitimate interests, we consider whether those interests are overridden by your rights.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use essential technologies needed for security and basic website operation. Optional analytics, advertising, embedded-content, or similar technologies should be used only with the choice or consent required in your location. Read our Cookie Policy for categories and controls. A legal page by itself does not prevent a cookie from loading, so the website’s consent controls must also be configured correctly.
When We Share Information
We do not publish your private messages or sell personal information for money. We may disclose limited information to:
- Website hosting, content delivery, security, backup, and technical support providers.
- Analytics providers that help us understand website use and performance.
- Amazon and other affiliate networks or retailers when you follow an affiliate link.
- Providers of embedded media or social features that you choose to load or interact with.
- Professional advisers, regulators, courts, law enforcement, or other parties when reasonably necessary to meet a legal obligation or protect rights and safety.
- A successor if the website or its assets are transferred, subject to applicable notice and privacy requirements.
International Processing
Some service providers may store or process information outside Australia, including in the United States and other countries in which they or their subcontractors operate. Privacy protections may differ between countries. Where required, we rely on recognised safeguards, contractual protections, adequacy decisions, or your consent. Each third-party provider is also responsible for the processing described in its own privacy notice.
Retention
We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably needed for the purpose for which it was collected, to maintain security records, resolve disputes, or meet legal obligations. Retention periods vary by data type and provider. We then delete, anonymise, or securely dispose of information where practical.
Security
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards appropriate to a small information website. No online service, transmission, or storage method is completely secure, so absolute security cannot be promised.
Your Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live and whether the relevant law applies to us, you may have rights to request access to personal information, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, or details about how it is used and shared. You may also have a right to object, withdraw consent, opt out of targeted advertising or the sale or sharing of personal information, appeal a refusal, or make a complaint to a privacy regulator.
Australia and New Zealand
You may ask to access or correct personal information we hold about you and raise a privacy complaint. Australian visitors may contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner if a complaint is not resolved. New Zealand visitors may contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner where applicable.
European Economic Area, United Kingdom, and Switzerland
Where applicable, you may request access, rectification, erasure, restriction, data portability, or object to processing. You may withdraw consent and complain to the supervisory authority where you live or work. We do not use personal information submitted directly to us for solely automated decisions producing legal or similarly significant effects.
United States
Residents of California and other states with applicable privacy laws may have rights to know, access, correct, delete, or receive a copy of covered personal information and to opt out of its sale, sharing, targeted advertising, or certain profiling. We will not discriminate against you for exercising an applicable privacy right. We do not knowingly sell personal information for money. Some analytics or advertising activity may be treated as “sharing”, targeted advertising, or a “sale” under a particular law even when no money changes hands; where that applies, a required opt-out mechanism must be provided.
Canada and Other Regions
Where applicable, you may request information about our handling practices, access or correct personal information, withdraw consent subject to legal limits, or challenge our compliance. Other local rights will be honoured when the relevant law applies.
To make a request, email onesmallcalm@gmail.com and state your country or state and the right you wish to exercise. We may need to verify your identity and authority while requesting no more information than reasonably necessary. We will respond within the period required by applicable law. If we cannot fulfil a request, we will explain why where required.
Children’s Privacy
This website is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 16. We do not knowingly request personal information from children. A parent or guardian who believes a child has provided personal information may contact us to request its deletion.
External Websites
Links and embedded content may take you to services we do not control. Their privacy notices and choices apply to their collection and use of information.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy when the website, providers, or legal requirements change. The date at the top shows the latest published revision. Material changes should be highlighted or otherwise communicated where required.
Contact and Complaints
Questions, requests, or complaints can be sent to onesmallcalm@gmail.com. Please describe the issue clearly. We will review it and respond within a reasonable period and within any shorter period required by applicable law.
