Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 11, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how The Callout Show (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and protects information when you visit thecalloutshow.com (the “Site”) or interact with our content. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.

1. Information We Collect

Information you provide

When you submit a contact form or apply to be a guest, we collect the details you choose to share — such as your name, email address, social or portfolio links, the topic you want to discuss, and your message.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, we and our infrastructure providers automatically receive limited technical data when you visit, such as your IP address, browser type, device information, referring pages, and general usage patterns. This helps us keep the Site secure, fast, and working properly.

Video playback data

Videos on the Site are delivered through Cloudflare Stream. When you watch an episode, Cloudflare may process technical information (such as IP address and playback performance metrics) to deliver the video efficiently.

2. How We Use Information

• To respond to your messages, guest applications, and inquiries;
• To operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Site and our content;
• To produce and promote episodes (for example, if you appear as a guest);
• To analyze general traffic and engagement in aggregate;
• To comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service.

3. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with trusted service providers who help us run the Site (such as hosting, content delivery, and video streaming providers, including Cloudflare), and only to the extent necessary for them to perform those services. We may also disclose information if required by law, to protect our rights, or in connection with a business transfer.

4. Third-Party Platforms

Episodes are also published on third-party platforms including YouTube, TikTok, Instagram (Meta), and Facebook (Meta). When you click a link to those platforms or interact with embedded content, your activity is governed by that platform’s own privacy policy, not ours. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by these platforms.

5. Cookies & Tracking

The Site uses minimal cookies and similar technologies necessary for core functionality (for example, keeping a studio session signed in). For details, see our Cookie Policy.

6. Data Retention

We keep form submissions and related information only as long as needed to respond to you, operate the show, and meet legal or operational requirements, after which we delete or anonymize it.

7. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of your personal information, or to opt out of certain processing. Residents of California (under the CCPA/CPRA) and the EEA/UK (under the GDPR) have specific rights, including the right to know what we collect and to request deletion. To exercise any right, contact us using the details below.

8. Children’s Privacy

The Site is intended for adults and is not directed to children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

9. Data Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information, including encryption in transit (HTTPS). No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes take effect when posted, and the “Last updated” date above reflects the most recent revision.
