Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 2026

Home Birth Partners ("we," "us," or "our") operates homebirthpartners.com. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, how we share it, and how to contact us about your information.

Information we collect

When you submit a midwife match request, we collect the information you provide, which may include your name, email address, phone number, city, state, ZIP code, due timing, birth history, screening answers, provider conversation status, insurance type and plan name, readiness to book, and your written notes about why you are interested in home birth. When you sign up for guides or emails, we collect your email address and the context needed to send the requested information.

How we use your information

How we share information

If you give matching consent, we may share your referral summary and contact details with selected midwives so they can evaluate whether they may be able to help. We also use service providers that help us operate the site and email system, including hosting, database, analytics, form, and email delivery providers. We require these providers to use the information only to provide services to us.

Some emails or pages may include affiliate links or partner recommendations. We may earn a commission if you buy through those links, but we do not sell your personal information.

Health-related information

Some information you provide may relate to pregnancy, birth preferences, insurance, or care planning. We use this information to provide the service you requested and to send education you consented to receive. Home Birth Partners is not a health care provider, health plan, or medical advice service.

Information retention

We retain match request information for up to 12 months unless we need it longer for security, legal, or operational reasons. Email subscribers remain on the list until they unsubscribe or ask us to delete their information.

Midwife provider data

Midwife information displayed on this site is sourced from the National Provider Identifier (NPI) Registry, a public federal database maintained by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. If you are a midwife and wish to update or remove your information, contact us at [email protected].

Cookies and analytics

We use basic analytics to understand aggregate site usage. We do not intentionally send match request answers, contact details, or health-related form responses to analytics tools. We do not use advertising cookies or cross-site tracking.

Your choices

You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time. You can ask us to access, correct, delete, or stop using your personal information by emailing [email protected]. We may need to verify your request before acting on it.

Security

We use HTTPS, access controls, and tokenized private lead pages to protect submissions. No internet service can guarantee perfect security, so please do not submit information you do not want us to use for the matching request.
