Submitting a contact form, guest application, or voicemail does not automatically constitute consent to receive marketing emails.

5. The Curated Circle Community

The Curated Circle is an online community designed to foster connection, conversation, education, and support.

When you join or participate, information may be processed through Mighty Networks, our community platform.

Depending on your participation, this may include your profile information, membership details, discussion posts, comments, event registrations, and messages.

Information you choose to post in community spaces may be visible to other members.

We encourage members to respect one another's privacy and avoid sharing another person's private information without permission.

Community participation is also subject to applicable community guidelines and platform terms.

6. Podcast Guest Applications and Listener Recordings

Wine, Wisdom & What Now? may collect personal information through guest applications, contact forms, and listener voicemail submissions.

This may include your name, email address, recorded voice, submitted stories, questions, and related information.

We use this information to review submissions, communicate with potential guests or contributors, and produce podcast content.

Submitting a recording does not guarantee that it will be featured.

Where the submission form includes a recording permission agreement, we may use selected recordings in podcast episodes or related promotional content in accordance with that agreement.

If you request that your name not be used publicly, we will consider that request when reviewing your submission.

Because podcast recordings may be distributed through third-party platforms, removing content after publication may not remove every previously distributed or downloaded copy.

Please do not submit another person's confidential information without their permission.

When you purchase products through The Curated Living Boutique, we may collect information necessary to process and fulfill your order, including:

  • Name and contact details

Payments may be processed by third-party payment providers.

Those providers may collect and process payment information according to their own privacy policies and security practices.

We use order information to fulfill purchases, provide customer support, address returns or disputes, and maintain appropriate business records.

Our websites and service providers may use cookies and similar technologies to operate website features, remember preferences, maintain security, and understand how visitors interact with our content.

We also plan to introduce tools such as Google Analytics and Meta Pixel.

  • Measure marketing campaigns

  • Understand visitor interests

  • Deliver or evaluate relevant advertising

These tools may involve third-party data processing and, depending on their configuration, cross-site tracking.

We do not make subscriber or customer lists available for unrelated third-party marketing without appropriate authorization.

If we introduce advertising practices that constitute a sale or sharing of personal information under applicable privacy laws, we will provide the required notices and opt-out choices.

10. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including providing services, maintaining business records, resolving disputes, and meeting legal obligations.
