Maro Yoga (operated by Mindfulness LLC, "Maro Yoga," "we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect through maroyoga.com (the "Site"), how we use it, and the choices you have.
Information We Collect
We collect information in a few limited ways:
- Email address — when you sign up for the free Meditation Starter Guide or subscribe to our newsletter, you provide your email address so we can send you the guide and occasional updates.
- Usage data — like most websites, our hosting and analytics tools may automatically collect basic technical information such as your browser type, device, general location (city/region level), and which pages you visit. This helps us understand how people use the Site.
- Information you volunteer — if you contact us directly by email or social media, we'll have whatever information you choose to share with us in that message.
We do not collect payment information directly. If you join Patreon, that transaction and any payment details are handled entirely by Patreon, under Patreon's own privacy policy, not ours.
How We Use Your Information
- To send you the free guide you requested and the newsletter you signed up for
- To let you know about new classes, workshops, articles, or retreats, only when there's something worth sharing
- To respond if you reach out with a question
- To understand, in a general sense, how visitors use the Site so we can improve it
We do not sell, rent, or trade your email address or personal information to third parties.
Email & Newsletter
We use a third-party email service provider to manage our mailing list and send newsletters. That provider processes your email address on our behalf and maintains its own security and privacy practices. Every email we send includes an unsubscribe link, and you can opt out at any time. Unsubscribing won't affect anything else about your relationship with Maro Yoga, like a Patreon membership or YouTube subscription.
Third-Party Platforms
Some of what we offer lives on platforms we don't own or control, including YouTube and Patreon. If you interact with us there (subscribing, commenting, joining a membership), that platform's own privacy policy and terms apply to the information you share with them. We encourage you to review those policies directly:
Cookies
Our Site may use basic cookies or similar technologies to remember your preferences and understand general traffic patterns. You can disable cookies through your browser settings, though some parts of the Site may not function as smoothly without them.
Children's Privacy
This Site is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.
Your Rights & Choices
Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of the information we hold about you, and the right to opt out of marketing emails at any time. To make a request, reach out through the contact page.
Data Security
We take reasonable steps to protect the information you share with us, but no method of transmission or storage over the internet is completely secure, and we can't guarantee absolute security.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time as the Site or our practices change. We'll update the "Last updated" date above when we do. We encourage you to check back periodically.

If you have questions about this policy or how your information is handled, reach out through the contact page or through Instagram.
