We believe transparency is the foundation of trust. Here’s a clear, honest look at how your information is handled when you visit our site.
At Elizabeth Consulting Services, we’re committed to operating with integrity in every interaction — including how we collect and protect your data. This page outlines our practices so you can feel fully informed and at ease as you engage with our site.
Our website is located at www.elizabethconsultingservices.com. If you have any questions about how we handle your information, we welcome you to reach out directly. Our commitment to clarity means we’re always happy to walk through anything on this page with you.
When you take the time to leave a comment on our site, we collect the information shared in the comment form, along with your IP address and browser user agent. This helps us maintain a safe, spam-free space for our community.
A hashed (anonymized) version of your email address may be shared with the Gravatar service to display your profile photo alongside your comment. You can review their privacy practices at automattic.com/privacy. Once your comment is approved, your profile image will appear publicly alongside it.
If you choose to upload images to our site, we encourage you to be mindful about embedded location data (EXIF GPS) that may be attached to your files. Images shared on our site can be downloaded by visitors, and any location metadata included may be accessible. Removing this data before uploading is always a good practice to protect your privacy.
We use cookies to support a more seamless, intentional experience on our site. If you leave a comment, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies — so you don’t have to re-enter your details the next time you visit. These cookies are stored for one year.
When you visit our login page, a temporary cookie is set to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie holds no personal data and is cleared when you close your browser.
Logging in sets additional cookies to remember your login and display preferences. Login cookies last two days; screen option cookies last one year. Selecting “Remember Me” extends your login persistence for two weeks. Logging out removes all login-related cookies.
If you edit or publish a post or article, a brief cookie is saved in your browser indicating only the post ID. It contains no personal data and expires after one day.
Our site may include embedded content from external sources — such as videos, images, or articles. This embedded content behaves exactly as if you had visited those external websites directly.
Those external sites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content — particularly if you have an account and are logged in to their platform when you visit our page.
We are intentional about how and when your data is shared. If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email to support account security.
Beyond that, we do not sell, trade, or share your personal data with third parties without your knowledge. Your information is yours — and we treat it with the same care and respect we bring to every client relationship.
Comments and their associated metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically, supporting a smoother experience for returning visitors rather than holding every submission in a moderation queue.
For users who register on our site, we store the personal information provided in their user profile. All users may view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time — with the exception of their username. Website administrators are also able to access and update this information as needed.
You are in control of your data. If you have an account on our site or have left a comment, you may request an exported file of all personal data we hold about you — including everything you’ve directly provided to us. You may also request that we erase your personal data at any time.
Please note: this does not include data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes — but we will always communicate clearly with you about what that means in practice.
To make a request or ask any questions about your data, reach out to us through our website at www.elizabethconsultingservices.com.
We’re always happy to talk through how your information is handled. Reach out — we’d love to hear from you.
