The Birth Companions

Privacy Policy

Effective date: April 25, 2026

What We Collect

The Birth Companions collects account, profile, scheduling, communication, and care-team information needed to operate the client and doula portals. When you connect Google Calendar or Calendly, we store authorization tokens and basic account metadata so the portal can show connection status and support scheduling workflows.

How We Use Information

We use portal data to support doula matching, appointment coordination, calendar visibility, interview scheduling, document workflows, payment workflows, and account administration. Calendar access is used only for the scheduling features a user authorizes.

Marketing Analytics

We use Google Analytics on public marketing pages to understand traffic, page views, and high-level form funnel activity. Google Analytics is not loaded on the client, doula, admin, auth, signing, API, or hidden post-interview form areas of the portal. We do not send names, email addresses, phone numbers, due dates, insurance details, form answers, payment details, contract details, or portal record identifiers to Google Analytics.

Calendar Connections

Users connect their own provider accounts through OAuth. TBC does not ask users to share provider passwords. Users can disconnect supported calendar integrations from the portal settings area.

Sharing

We share information only as needed to operate the portal, support care-team coordination, comply with legal obligations, or work with service providers that help run the application.
