The Overqualified

Privacy Policy

Effective date: November 10, 2026 · Last updated: November 10, 2026

This website, theoverqualified.net (the "Site"), and The Overqualified mentorship, guides, webinars and scholarship (together, the "Services") are operated by Julia Carlin DVM PLLC, a North Carolina professional limited liability company doing business as The Overqualified ("The Overqualified," "we," "us"). This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the Site or Services, you agree to this policy.

1. Information we collect

Information you give us. When you join a list or waitlist, register for a webinar, book a call, buy a product or membership, contact us, or apply for the scholarship, we collect what you enter, such as your name, email address, career stage, and anything you choose to write to us. Scholarship applicants also submit a video link and the information on the application. Scholarship finalists are asked for proof of eligibility (for example, an enrollment verification or a degree or license record).

Payment information. Payments are processed by Stripe. We never see or store your full card number. We receive limited details from Stripe, such as your name, email, what you bought and the amount.

Information collected automatically. When you visit the Site, we and our service providers collect standard usage information through cookies and similar technologies, including pages viewed, the link or site that referred you, approximate location (city or region), device and browser type, and how you interact with pages (such as clicks and scrolling).

2. How we use information

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.

3. Service providers we use

We share information only with providers that help us run the Services, each under its own privacy terms:

We may also disclose information if required by law, to protect our rights or the safety of others, or as part of a sale or reorganization of our business.

4. Cookies and your choices

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, and the Site will still work. We honor Global Privacy Control signals where the law requires it.

5. How long we keep information

We keep information only as long as needed for the purposes above or as required by law (for example, tax and payment records). Scholarship finalists' eligibility documents are deleted after the award is paid. You can ask us to delete your information at any time (see section 7).

6. Security

We use reputable providers and reasonable safeguards to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Your rights

You can ask to see, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you, or to stop receiving emails, by writing to drjuliacarlin@gmail.com. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under state law. We will not treat you differently for exercising them. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request.

8. Who the Services are for

The Services are intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has given us information, contact us and we will delete it.

9. Not veterinary, legal, tax or financial advice

Content on the Site is education and mentorship from Julia Carlin DVM PLLC. It is not veterinary services for your patients, and it is not legal, tax or financial advice. Use your own clinical and professional judgment.

10. Links to other sites

The Site links to other sites (such as Instagram, Stripe and Calendly). Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy. We will change the "Last updated" date above, and for significant changes we will post a notice on the Site.
