Cookies and Analytics
We use cookies and similar technologies to understand how visitors use the website, measure performance, improve content, and remember basic preferences. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Some website features may work less reliably if cookies are disabled.
Third-Party Services
We use service providers for hosting, analytics, email delivery, workshop scheduling, form handling, and event operations. These providers process data only where needed to provide their services to us.
Data Sharing
We do not sell personal information. We may share information with service providers that help us run the website, communicate with you, process registrations, or deliver workshops. We may also disclose information when required by law or when necessary to protect our rights, users, or services.
Data Retention
We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. When information is no longer needed, we delete, anonymize, or securely archive it.
Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to the processing of your personal information. You may also opt out of non-essential communications at any time.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information. No internet service can be guaranteed to be completely secure, but we work to reduce risk and limit access to personal information to people and systems that need it.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The current version will be posted on this page with the latest update date.
