Coaching and Sensitive Information
Because Whyldflower Coaching works with nurses, you may choose to discuss personal experiences, workplace experiences, emotional challenges, professional circumstances, relationships, or other sensitive subjects during coaching. Please use discretion when submitting sensitive information through website forms, email, or other electronic communications.
Why-ldflower Coaching is not a healthcare provider, medical provider, mental health provider, or emergency service. Coaching is not medical care, nursing care, psychotherapy, counseling, diagnosis, or treatment.
We do not require you to provide medical records, diagnoses, treatment information, or other health information to receive coaching. If you voluntarily provide health-related or other sensitive information, we will handle it in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable law. However, ordinary email, website forms, scheduling platforms, and similar communications may not provide the same protections as a healthcare system or HIPAA-covered healthcare provider. Please do not send medical records, patient information, protected health information (“PHI”), or confidential information belonging to patients, employers, coworkers, or other third parties to Why-ldflower Coaching.
Information About Other People
Please do not provide us with personal information about another person unless you have permission or are otherwise legally authorized to do so. In particular, nurses should never submit identifiable patient information, protected health information, medical records, or confidential workplace information through our website, forms, email, coaching platform, or other communication channels. If you accidentally provide such information, please notify us promptly.

International Data Transfers
Because we may use service providers located in different countries, your personal information may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in countries other than the country where you live. Those countries may have privacy laws that differ from the laws in your jurisdiction. Where applicable law requires safeguards for international transfers, we will use appropriate mechanisms, which may include adequacy decisions, standard contractual clauses, contractual safeguards, or other legally recognized transfer mechanisms.

Retention periods may vary depending on:
- The nature of the information
- Why we collected it
- Whether you remain a client
- Legal and regulatory requirements
- Accounting and tax requirements
- The need to establish or defend legal claims
- Security and fraud-prevention requirements
When personal information is no longer reasonably necessary, we will delete, anonymize, or securely dispose of it, subject to applicable law.
Data Security
We take reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Depending on the circumstances, security measures may include:
- Access controls
- Password protection
- Encryption where appropriate
- Secure website connections
- Limited access to personal information
- Vendor security controls

However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that your information will never be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed as a result of a security incident.

If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child in circumstances where collection was not permitted, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
Do Not Track
Some browsers may transmit “Do Not Track” signals. Because there is currently no universally accepted standard for responding to such signals, our website may not respond to them unless required by applicable law.
