Your privacy matters deeply to us. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. We believe in plain language — not legal jargon — because you deserve to understand exactly how your data is handled.
My Early Menopause (myearlymenopause.com) is an independent editorial journal based in Birmingham, Alabama. We are not a medical provider, healthcare organization, or commercial entity. This is a personal, informational publication created to support women navigating premature ovarian insufficiency and early menopause.
If you choose to subscribe to our journal, we collect your email address only. We do not collect your name, location, or any other personal information unless you voluntarily provide it. Your email is used solely to send you updates, stories, and resources from My Early Menopause.
If you submit a question, story suggestion, or resource recommendation through any form on this site, we collect the information you choose to share (such as your email address and message). We use this only to respond to your submission and will never share it without your explicit consent.
This site may use basic analytics tools to understand how visitors find and use our content — such as which pages are most read and where traffic comes from. This data is aggregated and anonymous. We do not use advertising cookies or sell any data to third parties.
If you prefer not to be tracked, you can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time without affecting your ability to read our content.
Like most websites, our server may automatically collect basic technical information when you visit — such as your IP address, browser type, and the pages you view. This information is used only for site security and performance monitoring.
We use the information we collect only to:
We do not sell, rent, trade, or share your personal information with any third party for marketing purposes. Ever.
