The Abiding Life

Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 14, 2026

Terry Buchan, doing business as The Abiding Life ("we," "us," or "our"), respects your privacy. This policy explains what we collect, why, and the choices you have. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for their own marketing.

Who we are

Information we collect

• Information you give us: your name, email address, and — if you choose to provide it — your mobile phone number, submitted through forms, the chat widget, or at checkout.
• Purchase information: if you buy something, our payment processor handles your card details. We never see or store full card numbers.
• Usage information: basic, standard web log data such as pages visited and general device type, used to keep the site working.

How we use it

• To send the free resources, courses, and emails you asked for.
• To answer questions you send us by email, form, or chat.
• To deliver and support anything you purchase.
• To send occasional updates about our offerings, which you can stop at any time.

Email and text messages

We send email only to people who have asked to hear from us. Every email includes an unsubscribe link, and unsubscribing takes effect right away.

If you provide your mobile number and consent to text messages, we may send you account, appointment, and program-related texts, and occasional updates about our offerings. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP at any time to stop receiving texts, or HELP for help. Consent to receive text messages is never a condition of any purchase. No mobile information will be shared with third parties/affiliates for marketing/promotional purposes. All the above categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties. Phone numbers may be shared only with service providers who help us send messages on our behalf, and only for that purpose.

Service providers

We use trusted providers to run this business — for example, email and messaging delivery, website hosting, and payment processing. They may access your information only to perform work for us and are required to protect it.

Cookies

The site uses essential cookies needed for pages and forms to work, and the chat widget may set a cookie so a conversation stays connected. You can block cookies in your browser, though some features may not work as intended.

Your choices

You may ask us at any time to see, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you, or to stop contacting you. Write to support@abidinginpractice.com and we will respond within 30 days.

Children

This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 16.

Security

We take reasonable steps to protect your information, including encrypted connections across the site. No method of transmission over the internet is perfectly secure.

Changes

If we update this policy, we will change the date at the top of this page.
