Who we are
Kimberly Marsh Dietitian is a website and blog managed by a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist.
Our website address is: https://kimberlymarshdietitian.com.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, KMD collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. KMD’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how visitors use this website. From time to time, LMD may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
KMD also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on our blogs. KMD only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that blog commenter IP addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog where the comment was left.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to KMD’s websites choose to interact in ways that require KMD to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information gathered depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who comment on our blog to provide a username and email address. Those who wish to receive updates via email, we collect their emails. In each case, KMD collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with KMD. KMD does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.
Aggregated Statistics
KMD may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. For instance, we may monitor the most popular pages on the list25.com site or use spam screened by the Akismet service to help identify spam. KMD may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, KMD does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.
Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
KMD discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on KMD’s behalf or to provide services available at KMD’s websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using KMD’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. KMD will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, KMD discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when KMD believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of KMD, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of our website and have supplied your email address, KMD may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with KMD and our products. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. KMD takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

KMD uses cookies to help identify and track visitors, their usage of the website, and their website access preferences.

How long we retain your data

All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
