Privacy policy

This website, trainingemdr.com, belongs to Partners in EMDR Training, PLLC, owned by Kathleen Fitzgerald in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Here is what we collect and why.

What we collect

• Contact and inquiry forms. Your name, email, phone number if you give it, your licensure, and whatever you write in your message.
• Newsletter signups. Your first name and email address, and which list you joined (training news or La Fitz market news).
• Registration. When you register for a training, the information needed to confirm your seat, verify eligibility, issue your certificate, and process payment. Card details are handled by the payment provider and never stored by us.

We do not want protected health information. Please do not include client names or identifying case details in any form or email. Kathleen no longer sees therapy clients, and this site is not a place to request therapy.

How it’s used

To answer your message, to confirm and run the training you registered for, to send you the newsletter you asked for, and to keep the records EMDRIA and continuing education bodies require. That’s it. We never sell or rent your information.

Who else sees it

A few services help run the site, and each sees only what it needs: the form service that delivers your message, the email service that sends the newsletter, the payment provider for registrations, and the company that hosts the site. Cohorts hosted with a partner organization, such as the AACC, are registered on that organization’s site under its own privacy policy.

Cookies and analytics

At launch, this site sets no tracking cookies and runs no analytics. Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, which may log the request. If we add analytics later, this page will say so and describe what is collected.

How long we keep it

Messages are kept as long as they are useful for answering you. Registration and certificate records are kept as long as EMDRIA and continuing education requirements ask us to. Newsletter details are kept until you unsubscribe.

Your choices

• Every newsletter has an unsubscribe link, and it works immediately.
• You can ask to see, correct or delete the information we hold about you at any time by emailing kathleen@trainingemdr.com. Records we are required to keep for certification purposes may be retained.

Questions

Email kathleen@trainingemdr.com or call 919-360-6473.

Accessibility statement

Kathleen has spent her career on learning differences and accessibility, and this site is built to match. Our goal is to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at level AA.

What we’ve done

• Text and buttons use color combinations tested for contrast. Decorative lavender and sage are never used for text you need to read.
• Every page can be used with a keyboard alone, with a visible focus indicator and a skip-to-content link.
• Images that carry meaning have text alternatives. Decorative images are hidden from screen readers.
• Headings, landmarks and form labels are structured so screen readers can navigate the page.
• Animations are turned off for anyone whose device asks for reduced motion.
• Text can be resized to 200% without losing content, and the site works on phones, tablets and desktops.

Known limits

Some registrations are completed on partner sites, such as the AACC, and some newsletter and payment steps happen on third-party services. We choose accessible providers where we can, but we do not control those pages.

Tell us if something isn’t working

If any part of this site is hard to use, please let us know and describe what happened and what device or assistive technology you were using. We’ll fix what we can and find you another way to get the information in the meantime.
