Privacy and consent
In plain language: we collect only what you choose to give us through our forms, we use it to tell you about Ascential, and you can unsubscribe or ask us to delete it at any time.
Last updated November 9, 2026
What we collect
- Email signups: your email address, and your first name if you give it, plus where on the site you signed up (for example the footer or the ticket waitlist).
- Workshop interest: the same details, so we can tell you when an Ascential Essentials workshop is confirmed.
- Partner enquiries: if you email us about partnering, the details you include in that email.
- Analytics, only if you allow it: anonymous information about how pages are used, such as which page you visited and roughly where you came from.
Why we collect it
To send you news about Ascential events, workshops and community activity you asked to hear about, to answer your enquiries, and, if you allow analytics, to understand which pages help people find us so we can improve the site.
Consent and unsubscribing
We only email you if you tick the consent box, which is never pre-ticked, and confirm your address through the email we send you (double opt-in), in line with Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL). Every email has an unsubscribe link, and unsubscribing takes effect right away.
Who processes your information
- Brevo stores our mailing lists and sends our emails on our behalf.
- Google Analytics measures site visits, but only after you choose "Allow analytics". If you choose "No thanks", or ignore the banner, it never loads.
- Eventbrite sells our tickets. When you buy a ticket, Eventbrite's own privacy policy applies to the details you give them.
- YouTube hosts our recap film. It loads, from YouTube's privacy-enhanced domain, only when you press play.
We do not sell your information, and we do not use advertising trackers.
Changing your mind
You can change your analytics choice at any time by clearing this site's data in your browser; the banner will ask again. To see, correct or delete the information we hold about you, email us and we will respond within 30 days.
