privacy policy

honouring your privacy

last updated: 16 april, 2025

your privacy and sense of safety matter to me. when you visit this website, book a session, or subscribe to a newsletter, you’re trusting me with personal information. i want you to know that i treat your details with care and only use them in ways that serve our connection.

this policy explains what information i collect, how i use it, and how you can access, update, or delete it if you choose.

1. who i am

this website is run by me, alicia o’keeffe, a somatic mindfulness coach based in ireland. you can contact me at alicia@aliciaok.com if you have any questions about this policy or how your data is handled.

2. what i collect and why

when you use the website, you might share:

  • your name and email (e.g., when you sign up for a newsletter, contact me, or book a session).
  • your phone number, if you choose to provide it for session reminders or updates.
  • some technical info like your ip address, browser type, and which pages you visit. this helps improve the website and understand what’s helpful to visitors.

3. how i use your information

only for things like:

  • confirming and managing your bookings.
  • responding to messages or questions.
  • sending newsletters or updates (only if you’ve signed up).
  • improving the website and making it more user-friendly.
  • keeping things secure and functioning properly.

i only use your data with your consent, to fulfill my services to you, or where required by law. i never sell or share your information for advertising.

4. cookies

the site uses small files called cookies to remember things like your preferences or if you’ve accepted the cookie notice. you can disable cookies in your browser settings if you'd prefer not to use them.

for more details, check out my cookie policy.

5. your rights

you always have the right to:

  • see what information i hold about you.
  • ask me to update or delete your details.
  • withdraw your consent at any time.

just email me at alicia@aliciaok.com, and i’ll help.

6. keeping your data safe

i do my best to protect your information. like anything online, no system is 100% perfect, but i take reasonable steps to keep your data secure and private. if a data breach ever occurs, i’ll notify affected users promptly and take steps to minimize harm.

7. how long i keep your data

only as long as necessary—for example, to manage your booking, respond to your enquiry, or meet legal requirements. if you’d like your information removed sooner, just ask.

8. third-party services

some parts of this site use tools like analytics or booking platforms, which help me understand how the site is used. these services follow data protection rules and may process data outside the eu, but only with safeguards in place to protect your privacy.

if my business ever changes hands, your data would only be transferred with the same privacy protections in place.

if i link to another website, their privacy policy applies—not mine.

9. children

this website isn’t designed for children under 16. i don’t knowingly collect or process their information. if you believe a child has shared data with me, please get in touch, and i’ll take care of it.

10. updates to this policy

this policy may change occasionally. if so, i’ll update the date at the top. you’re welcome to check back anytime.

questions or concerns?

i’m here to help. you can contact me directly at alicia@aliciaok.com or through the contact form on aliciaok.com.
