Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 29, 2026

Your privacy matters to me! I’m Zehra, and my dad helps me manage this babysitting website, messages, and bookings. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and how we protect it.

Information we collect

When you use the Contact form, we collect only:

  • Your full name
  • Your email address
  • Your message

If you email us directly, we also receive whatever information you choose to include.

Our booking system is still being prepared. Once available, it may collect additional information needed to arrange babysitting, such as your phone number, preferred dates, general location, and children’s ages.

Please do not send medical records, identification documents, or other sensitive information through the general contact form.

How we use your information

We use contact information to answer questions and communicate with families.

When babysitting is requested, we may use the necessary information to review availability, discuss your family’s needs, complete safety checks, and arrange appointments.

We do not sell personal information or use contact messages for advertising.

Contact form and message storage

Our contact form uses Jetpack Forms. Messages are sent to contactme@babysitterzehra.ca, and copies are saved in our WordPress website.

Zehra and her father use this information to respond to inquiries. Our website and email service providers may also process information to deliver these services.

Website security and spam protection

We use Cloudflare Turnstile to help protect our forms against spam and automated submissions. Cloudflare may process technical information, such as browser and connection details, to verify submissions.

We take reasonable precautions to protect personal information and limit unnecessary access. However, no online system can guarantee complete security.

Children’s information

Parents or guardians are responsible for providing information about their children when requesting babysitting.

We aim to collect only what is necessary to understand the babysitting request. More sensitive information, if needed, will be discussed through an appropriate private communication method rather than the general contact form.

Google Meet interviews

For first-time families, we plan to arrange a Google Meet conversation led by Zehra as part of our booking review.

Families will be informed in advance if the meeting will be recorded. Participating adults must consent to recording, and appropriate parental or guardian consent is required for any participating children.

Zehra’s father will review the recording to help decide whether to approve the booking. We will not record participants without the required consent.

Payments and identity checks

Our planned introductory booking process includes a payment of $1 for one child, $4 for two children, or $6 for three children by Interac e-Transfer, plus any travel fee agreed in advance. We may compare the sender’s name with the booking information as an additional safety check.

For a new family’s first appointment, Zehra’s father plans to check the responsible adult’s photo identification in person. We do not intend to photograph or retain copies of identification documents.

Who can access your information

Zehra and her father may access information needed for messages and bookings.

Our service providers, including website hosting, WordPress/Jetpack, Cloudflare, email services, and Google Meet when used, may process information to provide their services.

Some providers may process information outside Canada, where different privacy laws may apply.

How long we keep information

We aim to delete ordinary contact inquiries within 12 months after the last communication, unless the information is needed for an ongoing booking or an applicable legal obligation.

Booking information and interview recordings will be kept only as long as reasonably necessary for their purposes, subject to applicable requirements. We will establish more specific retention periods as the booking system is finalized.

Cookies and website statistics

Our website uses WordPress, Jetpack, Cloudflare Turnstile, and CookieAdmin.

Depending on the features enabled, these tools may use cookies or process technical information to provide security, website functions, and visitor statistics.

CookieAdmin provides a cookie notice on our website. We will review and update our cookie disclosures as website features change.

Your privacy choices

You can contact us to ask what personal information we hold about you, request a correction, or ask for deletion.

We will review requests and respond as appropriate, subject to any applicable legal requirements.

Contact for privacy questions

Please email contactme@babysitterzehra.ca.

My dad helps manage privacy requests and makes sure they are reviewed carefully.

We may update this Privacy Policy as our website and booking services develop.
