1. Overview
Mom Life Podcast is created and hosted by Sonia Flores. This site serves as a home for podcast episodes, blog content, a community submission form, and curated resources for mothers.
This Privacy Policy applies to all information collected through the site, through the community submission form, through email contact, and through any newsletter or mailing list associated with Mom Life Podcast.
Mom Life Podcast does not sell your personal information. Full stop.
2. What We Collect
The information collected depends on how you interact with the site.
Information you give us directly
Story or community submission – Your name, email address, and the content of your submission
Contact form or email – Your name, email address, and message content
Newsletter signup – Your name and email address
Guest pitch or collaboration inquiry – Your name, contact details, and any background information you choose to share.
Information collected automatically
When you visit the site, basic technical information is collected automatically, including your IP address, browser type, pages visited, time spent on pages, and the referring URL. This information is collected in aggregate and is used to understand how the site is being used, not to identify individuals.
Information from podcast platforms
If you listen through Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, iHeartRadio, or another platform, those platforms collect their own data according to their own privacy policies. Mom Life Podcast may receive aggregated listener statistics, such as episode download counts and geographic listening trends, but does not receive personally identifiable information from podcast platforms.
3. How We Use Your Information
Information collected through the site is used in the following ways:
- To respond to your message, story submission, or inquiry personally
- To consider your submission, topic suggestion, or guest pitch for future episodes
- To send the newsletter or email updates you signed up for
- To understand how the site is being used and improve it over time
- To share your story on the podcast or in written content, if you have given permission
Your information is not used for advertising, profiling, or sold to third parties for any commercial purpose.
If Sonia wants to use your story or submission in a public-facing way, she will contact you first. You will always have the chance to say no or adjust how your story is shared.
4. Sharing Your Information
Mom Life Podcast does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. There are limited situations where information may be shared with trusted third parties:
- Service providers: Tools used to run the site, manage email lists, or host files may process your data as part of delivering those services. These providers are contractually required to handle your information securely and use it only for the purpose of providing services to Mom Life Podcast.
- Legal requirements: If required by law, regulation, or valid legal process, information may be disclosed to comply with those obligations.
- With your consent: If you ask us to share something on your behalf, or if you give explicit permission for your story to be shared publicly, that permission is the basis for sharing it.
No information is shared with advertisers. Mom Life Podcast does not run paid advertising programs that involve listener data.
5. Cookies and Analytics
The site may use cookies and third-party analytics tools to understand site traffic and listener behavior in aggregate. These tools use small files stored in your browser to recognize repeat visits and track how people navigate the site.
Information collected through analytics is used to improve the site experience and is not used to identify individual users. You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time. Some features of the site may function differently if cookies are turned off.
If the site uses a cookie consent tool, you will be given the option to accept or decline non-essential cookies when you first visit.
6. Podcast Platforms and Embedded Players
Mom Life Podcast episodes are distributed through Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Google Podcasts, iHeartRadio, Podchaser, Castro, Castbox, Player FM, Podcast Addict, Goodpods, TrueFans, and Overcast.
When you listen through any of these platforms, their own privacy policies govern the data collected. Mom Life Podcast recommends reviewing those policies if you have questions about how those platforms handle your information.
If the site includes embedded audio players from third-party services, those services may also collect data when the player loads, even if you do not press play. This is governed by the respective service’s privacy practices.
7. Your Rights
You have the right to know what personal information is held about you, and to ask for it to be corrected or deleted. If you submitted a story and have changed your mind about how it is used, reach out and that request will be honored.
Specifically, you can ask us to:
- Tell you what information is held about you
- Correct any inaccurate information
- Delete your information from our records
- Remove you from any email or newsletter list
- Withdraw consent for your story or submission to be used publicly
Requests are handled personally and typically responded to within a few business days. To make a request, email [email protected] with “Privacy Request” in the subject line.
If you are located in the European Union or California, you may have additional rights under GDPR or the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). Mom Life Podcast aims to honor those rights regardless of your location.
8. Children's Privacy
Mom Life Podcast is a show about parenting, which means a lot of conversations involve children. However, the site itself is intended for adults, specifically parents and caregivers.
Mom Life Podcast does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 13. If a submission or contact form is submitted by or on behalf of a child under 13, that information will be deleted promptly upon discovery.
If you believe a child has submitted personal information through the site, please contact us immediately.
9. Data Security
Reasonable technical and organizational measures are in place to protect the personal information held about you. This includes secure hosting, encrypted email transmission where available, and limiting access to data to only those who need it to operate the site or respond to your message.
No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. While every reasonable effort is made to protect your information, absolute security cannot be guaranteed. If a data breach occurs that affects your personal information, you will be notified in accordance with applicable law.
10. Changes to This Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time as the site evolves, new features are added, or legal requirements change. When updates are made, the “Last updated” date at the top of this page will reflect the change.
If a significant change is made to how personal information is used, an effort will be made to notify email subscribers directly. For smaller updates, the revised policy on this page is the record of what is in effect.

Sonia reads every message personally. You will not get an auto-response and then silence. If you write, someone will actually write back.
