Disclaimer
DommiesBlessed shares tips and lessons from our personal journey. We hope that you can laugh at things that once made us cry, and that our content ultimately encourages you on this rollercoaster ride called life.
DommiesBlessed is not intended to replace advice from a team you trust and knows you well. Please know things that have worked for our family, may or may not work for you and yours. Our site is purposely biased in an attempt to contribute perspectives we think are missing from the web. For example, we're big believers that breastaurants are on most (if not every) newborn's wish list, and that most low-moments can be solved with great music and noise-canceling headphones. While we stand by and are proud of what we contribute to the digital space, you acknowledge that your use of the information on DommiesBlessed is at your own risk.
Terms Of Use
All content provided on DommiesBlessed is for informational purposes only. For example, we detail our lives as a homebirthing, homeschooling, and breastfeeding family. Please know that this slow-moving, child-led lifestyle can lead to gaining 10 pounds per child (due to being attached to said children 24/7), and many more unappealing traits that will make it glaringly obvious you're part of the earthy-crunchy mom club. While we strive to be as transparent as possible, we can not be held liable for any errors or omissions in this information nor for the availability of this information. We can not be held liable for any social shaming, conflicts, or damages from the display or use of this information.
Website Calculators
We've created multiple calculators that have been super helpful on our personal journey. We share them publicly in hopes that they can help you too. Our calculators are not meant to replace personalized recommendations from a person or service that is able to look at your situation holistically. For example, we support retiring in your 20s to dedicate long messy years to becoming a stay-at-home mom. But if this choice spiritually doesn't vibe with you -- you probably haven't pulled enough all-nighters yet. Just joking! Our calculators provide estimates and are for informational purposes only.
Surveys and Giveaways
We may collect contact information such as your name and email address during giveaways and surveys. Feel free to use a pseudonym, screen name or moniker. This info will be used to inform you about the winners and/or survey results.
Your Rights
If you are interested in staying updated on our happenings, you may choose to subscribe. When you subscribe you are entering your email and allowing us to send information to your inbox. At any point, you may request to unsubscribe. Please give us 30 days to delete your profile from our system.
Privacy
Please know we take your privacy as seriously as our own. We intentionally collect the least amount of information needed to complete the task while also keeping you as anonymous as possible. We encourage the use of monikers and pseudonyms for your digital profile on our site and anytime your legal name is not necessary.
Links to Third Party Websites
We love including helpful outside links to provide you with more in-depth information on certain topics. For example adorable hand-made dolls sold on an independent site.
Please know that the terms and privacy policies of these sites can change at any time and may differ from our own. Leadership changes regularly happen which can also change the direction of an entity. While we try our best to share our concerns with any third parties we link to, we aren't able to keep up with the rapid changes of the internet. So we encourage our visitors to read and understand the motives behind the digital spaces we may suggest.
Security
We are committed to ensuring that the information we do collect (e.g. your fake names) is secure. In order to prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, we have put in place physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online. If you choose to purchase one of our plans, please know we use a website developer that has been around for almost 20 years. And we utilize the enhanced security features they offer like two-step authentication. Most importantly, we do not store your personally-identifiable information outside of this platform.
Cookies
As huge advocates for digital privacy, DommiesBlessed tries our best to limit the amount of cookies we use. But please know we do use some. Cookies are small files on your device that collect data. The law protects you and other website users, by allowing you to disable cookies when visiting sites. The following can be disabled upon entering our site...
Marketing Cookies, which track advertising results. For example, as an Amazon affiliate we use product links.
Functional Cookies, which collect data to remember your choices, for example, if you choose to become a site member, it remembers your log in if you choose to not enter it every time.
Analytics Cookies, which help us discover errors and understand how you interact with our website. For example, we learn which article from Google referred you to us.
Essential cookies can not be disabled. They enable core functionality such as identity verification and network management.
Most importantly, cookies do not give us access to your computer or any information about you, other than the data you choose to share with us. Here is a video from Google for a visual explanation of cookies.
All Rights Reserved
We love referrals! When sharing any material from DommiesBlessed we ask that you link back to our site and give your best shoutout to our original content.
Advertiser Disclosure
DommiesBlessed is reader-supported. This means, when you purchase through one of our affiliate links, we may receive a commission.
Our current affiliates include (but are not limited to…)
We link to products we absolutely love, have transformed our personal lives and that we would recommend to our own family.
This requires intense, lengthy, and in-depth research via our personal use and/or resources. So our posts often take days, weeks, if not months to complete. It also means we often recommend the same products across multiple forms of content.
We do not get compensated if you are dissatisfied and return your purchases. So our goal is to deliver on the promise that our suggestions are fairly-priced high-quality products that you will actually use and will make your lives better.
We also do not see personally identifiable information about you, when you use our affiliate links. Here's an example of a reader's purchase. All we know is what they bought, when they bought it, and how much it cost.
Occasionally, we link to products referenced in videos we may include on our site. This is to make it easier for our readers to find all the information in one place. For example, if we include a hair tutorial to demonstrate how to braid, we may also link to the products used in the video even though we have not tried them ourselves. We noticed viewers frequently stopped and replayed sections of the videos where products were displayed. So we would find the product and link to it, in order to make it easier for our readers to find exactly what they are looking for and show them where they can see other buyer's reactions.
We're intentional about limiting where the ads show up, as we do not want to ruin our reader's experience. Our focus is on leading our visitors to retailers we trust, so that they can make a confident purchase, and we can continue providing free content to our visitors.
Non-Tax Deductible
We are tremendously grateful for everyone who chooses to donate to DommiesBlessed (especially during our beginning stage). We intentionally did not choose a non-profit entity, because we hoped to build a platform valuable enough that visitors were willing to spend their hard-earned dollars. We strongly feel that this is a more sustainable approach for the long-term. We understand this approach also takes time. Since we are not a non-profit, contributions, gifts or membership dues made or paid to DommiesBlessed are not deductible as charitable contributions for federal income tax purposes.
Gift Refund
If you have made an error in making your donation or change your mind about contributing to DommiesBlessed, we will happily honor your request for a refund made within 12 days of your donation. To request a refund, please contact us. Refunds are only made using the original method of payment.
Changes To These Statements
As we grow and learn more, we may update these statements as needed and at our own discretion. Please know our intentions remain to serve our readers, while also protecting us as digital citizens. If you ever need to revisit this notice, it’s linked in our site’s footer. Feel free to share your feedback here.
