Privacy and cookies

What this website collects, what it does not, and how to reach us about it. The Keystone Birth Collaborative is a Pennsylvania nonprofit corporation.

The short version

This is an informational website. It has no accounts, no logins and no payments, and information about you is never sold or rented to anyone. Two analytics services measure how the site is used, and one of them also records how people move around a page. Your browser can switch both off, and this page explains how.

Care is not provided through this website and nothing here is medical advice. When you write to us, please leave out health information about yourself or anyone else.

What is collected

When you read the site. Our analytics tools record which pages you visit, roughly where in the world you are, at city or region level worked out from your IP address, which they do not show us; the kind of device and browser you are using; and which site or search sent you here. This happens for every visitor.

How you move around a page. One of the two, Microsoft Clarity, also records anonymised mouse movement, scrolling and clicks so we can see which parts of the site are confusing. It replays as an anonymous outline of a session rather than a recording of you, and text you type is masked.

When you get in touch or ask to join. Those links open a Google Form, so what you type goes to Google and then to us. We use it to reply and to keep track of who is part of the Collaborative. Please keep it to the professional details the form asks for.

This site carries no advertising, no advertising or retargeting trackers, and builds no profiles of visitors.

Cookies

Cookies are small files a website leaves in your browser. This site sets only the four its analytics tools need, and advertising uses none of them.

Turning them off

Every browser can block or delete cookies, and both tools stop working when you do. Private browsing, a content blocker, or any setting that blocks third-party or analytics cookies all have the same effect. Everything on this site keeps working either way.

You can also switch off Google Analytics for every site you visit with Google's opt-out browser add-on, and Microsoft explains Clarity in its privacy statement.

Who else sees it

Only the services that make the site work, each acting on our behalf under its own terms, and all based in the United States:

Information about you goes to no one else, and it is never sold.

Your choices

You can block the cookies above whenever you like. You can also ask what we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it, and we will.

Anyone in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom who believes their information has been handled badly may also complain to their national data protection authority.

Getting in touch

Questions about this page, or about information we hold, reach us through the same form as everything else.
