Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy governs how we collect, use, and protect information across all of our online properties, including:

• Website: www.passportto.me • Facebook Page: facebook.com/PassportToMeBook • Facebook Community Group: The Sink Women • Facebook Community Group: The Arranged Face

Operated by Yalonda Grace White. "We," "us," and "our" refer to Yalonda Grace White and the Passport to Me brand. "You" refers to any person who visits, uses, or interacts with any of our digital properties.

This Privacy Policy applies to all four digital properties together. It does not apply to the Facebook platform itself — Meta's own privacy practices are governed by Meta's Privacy Policy at facebook.com/privacy/policy.

1. WEBSITE — www.passportto.me Our primary author and book website. Features book information, pre-order and purchase links, author bio, blog content, community links, and our email list sign-up.

2. FACEBOOK PAGE — facebook.com/PassportToMeBook Our official Facebook author Page. Open to the public — anyone on Facebook can see and interact with Page content.

3. FACEBOOK GROUP — The Sink Women A private Facebook community group for women navigating healing, reinvention, and self-discovery. Content visible to approved group members only.

B.

On Facebook Page and Groups: aggregated, anonymized Facebook Page Insights; group membership data visible to group administrators.

C. INFORMATION WE DO NOT COLLECT Across all properties, we do not independently collect: passwords or login credentials; private Facebook messages between users; your precise GPS location; payment card details; sensitive personal data such as health information, financial records, or government IDs.

We use the information we collect for the following purposes only: • To respond to you personally • To build and moderate community • To improve our content and website • To communicate about the book and brand • To send email communications (you may unsubscribe anytime) • To process direct orders • To run promotions and giveaways

WE DO NOT use your information to: sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party; send unsolicited commercial email; target you with advertising unrelated to Passport to Me; share your private messages with anyone outside our team.

Meta Platforms, Inc. is the primary data controller for information you share on Facebook. When you interact with our Page or either community group, your data is subject to Meta's data collection, processing, and storage practices — governed by Meta's Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, not ours.

As a Page and group administrator, we are a "joint controller" with Meta for certain activity data under applicable privacy laws (including GDPR for EU users).

What this means practically: Meta controls what data is collected when you use Facebook; Meta controls how long your data is stored; Meta controls advertising based on your activity; we only see the limited Insights and messaging data Meta provides to administrators.

Meta's Privacy Policy: facebook.com/privacy/policy Meta's Terms of Service: facebook.com/terms

OUR COMMITMENT TO CONFIDENTIALITY: • Treat everything shared in either group as confidential • Do not share, screenshot, or republish another member's personal disclosures outside the group without their explicit written permission • Group administrators will handle all sensitive personal disclosures with care and will not share member stories publicly without explicit written consent • If we wish to feature a comment or story as a testimonial, we will always request your explicit written permission first

All four of our digital properties are intended for adults aged 18 years and older. Our content addresses adult themes including divorce, grief, personal identity, self-discovery, and emotional healing.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. Facebook's own Terms of Service require users to be at least 13 years old.

If you believe a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately at yalonda.white@callableu.com and we will take prompt steps to delete such information.

We implement reasonable security measures across all digital properties: • Strong passwords and two-factor authentication (2FA) on all admin accounts • Administrative access restricted to authorized individuals • Reputable, industry-standard third-party service providers • SSL/TLS encryption on www.passportto.me • No payment card storage — all payments processed by Payhip or Meta Pay

No method of data transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. If you become aware of any security incident, please notify us immediately at yalonda.white@callableu.com.
