PRIVACY POLICY

Last Updated: September 30, 2026

Welcome to keziabiasong.com (“Website”), the personal website of Kezia Biasong.

Your privacy is important. This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected when you visit this Website, how that information may be used, and the choices available to you.

This Website is operated from Georgia, United States.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect information in two general ways: information you voluntarily provide and certain technical information that may be collected automatically when you use the Website.

Information You Provide

When you contact Kezia through the Website, you may voluntarily provide information such as:

  • Your name
  • Your email address
  • The subject or nature of your inquiry
  • The contents of your message
  • Any other information you choose to include

Please do not submit sensitive or confidential personal information through the contact form unless it is necessary for your inquiry.

Information Collected Automatically

When you visit the Website, certain technical information may be collected automatically by WordPress, hosting services, security tools, analytics features, or other services used to operate the Website.

Depending on the services and features enabled, this may include:

  • IP address
  • Browser type
  • Device type
  • Operating system
  • Pages visited
  • Referring website
  • Date and time of access
  • General information about how the Website is used

The specific information collected may change as Website features and services are updated.

2. How We Use Information

Information collected through the Website may be used to:

  • Respond to messages and inquiries
  • Communicate with you about your request
  • Maintain and operate the Website
  • Improve Website content and functionality
  • Understand general Website usage
  • Maintain Website security
  • Prevent spam, abuse, and unauthorized activity
  • Maintain appropriate business and communication records
  • Comply with applicable legal obligations

We do not collect information through the contact form for purposes unrelated to the inquiry without an appropriate reason or notice.

3. Contact Form

If you submit a message through the contact form, the information you provide may be transmitted to the email account designated to receive Website inquiries.

Information submitted through the form may also be stored by the Website’s form or WordPress systems.

We may retain correspondence for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to your inquiry, maintain appropriate records, resolve disputes, or meet applicable legal or business requirements.

4. Cookies and Similar Technologies

The Website may use cookies, browser storage, and similar technologies that are necessary for Website functionality, security, performance, or certain analytics features.

Some third-party services integrated with WordPress may also use cookies or similar technologies.

For example, Jetpack may provide security, performance, statistics, or other Website-management features. Depending on which Jetpack features are enabled, Jetpack may process technical information and Website usage data.

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Certain Website features may not function as intended if necessary cookies are disabled.

5. Accessibility Features

The Website uses an accessibility tool to help visitors adjust aspects of their browsing experience.

The accessibility tool is intended to provide accessibility features rather than track visitors for advertising or marketing purposes. The provider states that its accessibility widget does not collect or store personally identifiable information from Website end users.

Accessibility settings may be stored locally in a visitor’s browser so that preferences can be maintained.

6. Third-Party Services

The Website relies on third-party services and technologies to provide certain functionality.

These may include services related to:

  • Website hosting
  • Website development and page building
  • Website security
  • Website performance
  • Analytics or statistics
  • Accessibility
  • Email communication
  • Social media and external content

These providers may process technical or personal information as necessary to provide their services.

Each third-party provider maintains its own privacy practices and policies.

7. External Links and Social Media

The Website may contain links to third-party websites, including social media platforms and other websites referenced in Journal articles, Letters, or other content.

Once you leave this Website, the privacy practices of the third-party website apply.

Kezia Biasong does not control the privacy practices, security, or content of third-party websites.

8. Children's Privacy

This Website is intended for a general audience and is not directed toward children under 13.

We do not knowingly request or intentionally collect personal information from children under 13 through the Website.

If we become aware that personal information has been submitted by a child under 13, we will take reasonable steps to address the situation.

Federal children’s privacy requirements, including COPPA, can apply to general-audience websites when they have actual knowledge that they are collecting personal information from children under 13.

9. Data Security

Reasonable measures are used to protect information handled through the Website.

However, no website, online service, or method of transmitting information over the Internet can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

We encourage visitors to avoid submitting sensitive information through ordinary contact forms or email unless it is specifically necessary.

The FTC recommends that businesses collect only information they need, protect the information they retain, limit access, and securely dispose of information that is no longer needed.

10. Data Retention

Personal information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including responding to inquiries, maintaining appropriate records, protecting the Website, resolving disputes, or complying with applicable legal obligations.

The length of time information is retained may vary depending on the type of information and the reason it was collected.

11. Your Privacy Choices and Rights

Depending on where you live and which laws apply to your situation, you may have rights concerning your personal information.

You may contact us to:

  • Ask what personal information we may have about you
  • Request correction of inaccurate information
  • Request deletion of information where appropriate
  • Ask questions about how your information is used
  • Withdraw information you previously provided where applicable

Some requests may be subject to legal or practical limitations.

We may need to verify the identity of the person making a request before providing or changing personal information.

12. Do Not Track

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” setting. Because there is currently no universally accepted standard for responding to such signals across all websites and services, this Website may not respond to every browser-based Do Not Track signal.

13. Changes to This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically to reflect changes to the Website, technology, services, or applicable requirements.

When this page is updated, the “Last Updated” date will be changed accordingly.
