Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how James Zatopa and JamesZatopa.com collect, use, store, and protect information submitted through this website. The goal is simple: collect only what is needed to respond to sincere inquiries, keep that information private, and avoid selling or misusing visitor information.

By using JamesZatopa.com, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please do not submit personal information through the website.

Information collected

When you use the contact form, you may choose to provide your name, email address, what you are interested in, and the message you choose to send. This may include interest in Awakening Practice, 1:1 Support, teachings, media, Luv-U, or another inquiry.

The site may also collect ordinary technical information associated with form submission, site security, spam prevention, and server logs, such as IP address, browser type, date/time, and pages requested.

How information is used

Information submitted through the website may be used to respond to your inquiry, understand the relevant next step, keep a record of contact-form submissions so messages are not lost, protect the website from spam or abuse, improve the site, and comply with legal obligations when required.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We do not use contact-form messages for public testimonials, marketing, or publication without your permission.

Spiritual support and privacy boundaries

JamesZatopa.com offers spiritual teaching, meditation, awakening practice, energy work, healing-oriented support, and related educational material. This work is spiritual and educational in nature. It is not medical care, psychotherapy, psychiatric treatment, legal advice, financial advice, crisis intervention, or emergency support.

Messages about personal spiritual, emotional, energetic, or life experiences are treated with respect and privacy. However, website contact is not a confidential clinical, legal, or medical relationship. If your situation requires licensed professional care, please contact an appropriate qualified professional.

Storage, service providers, and security

Contact-form submissions may be delivered by email and may also be stored inside the WordPress admin area through form-storage tools such as Flamingo. This backup storage helps prevent inquiries from being lost if email delivery fails. Access to stored submissions is limited to the site owner or authorized administrators who need access to operate the website and respond to inquiries.

JamesZatopa.com runs on WordPress and may use trusted service providers to operate the site, process contact forms, deliver email, prevent spam, secure the site, host files, measure site performance, or maintain backups. These providers may process limited information only as needed to provide their services.

Reasonable steps are taken to protect information submitted through the website. However, no website, email system, or method of electronic storage is completely secure. Please use care when deciding what to send through the contact form.

Cookies, links, and related projects

The website may use cookies or similar technologies for basic site operation, security, spam prevention, embedded content, preferences, analytics, or performance. You can usually set your browser to refuse cookies or alert you when cookies are being used. Some parts of the site may not work as intended if cookies are disabled.

The website may link to or embed content from other websites, such as video, podcast, social media, app-store, payment, or educational platforms. Those third-party sites have their own privacy practices. We are not responsible for the privacy policies or practices of third-party websites.

JamesZatopa.com may discuss or link to Luv-U, Church of Infinite Love, or other related projects. This policy applies to JamesZatopa.com. If a separate app, membership platform, church site, payment platform, or community platform collects information directly, that service may need its own privacy policy or additional terms.

Email, payments, and future tools

If you submit the contact form, your email address may be used to reply to your inquiry. If an email list or newsletter is offered later, you should only receive those messages if you choose to subscribe or otherwise give permission. Marketing emails should include a way to unsubscribe.

If JamesZatopa.com later accepts payments, donations, class fees, or paid services, payment information should be handled by a third-party payment processor. The site should not store full payment-card details. Any payment processor’s own privacy policy will apply to information you provide through that processor.

If the site later adds advertising pixels, remarketing, paid membership tools, or expanded analytics, this policy should be updated before those tools are used.

Retention and your choices

Contact-form submissions and related records are kept only as long as reasonably needed to respond to inquiries, maintain business records, protect the site, resolve disputes, comply with legal obligations, or support an ongoing teacher/student, client, class, or community relationship.

You may request deletion of your contact-form information, subject to reasonable limits such as legal obligations, security needs, backup retention, dispute resolution, or records needed to complete an active service relationship.

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or limits on the use of your personal information. You may also have the right to withdraw consent or object to certain uses of your information.

California residents may have additional rights under California privacy laws, including the right to know what personal information is collected, the right to request deletion, the right to correct inaccurate information, and the right to opt out of certain sales or sharing of personal information. JamesZatopa.com does not sell personal information.

Visitors from the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or other regions with data-protection laws may have additional rights under applicable law. Requests will be handled in a reasonable manner based on the location, identity verification, and legal obligations involved.

Children, international visitors, and updates

JamesZatopa.com is not directed to children under 13, and it does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has submitted personal information, please use the contact form so the information can be reviewed and removed where appropriate.

If you access the website from outside the United States, your information may be processed in the United States or other locations where the website’s service providers operate. By submitting information through the website, you understand that your information may be transferred and processed outside your country of residence.

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” setting. Because there is not a single accepted standard for responding to these signals, the website may not respond to all Do Not Track signals. You can still use browser settings, privacy extensions, or cookie controls to limit tracking technologies.

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. When it changes, the “Last updated” date above will be revised. Continued use of the website after a policy update means you accept the updated policy.
