When you submit a form on this website, we may collect:

  • Name — first and last, as you provide it
  • Email address — used to send you the content or updates you requested
  • Phone number — only if you provide it; used only if you opt in to SMS updates
  • Organizational affiliation — to understand the community you come from
  • How you found us — via UTM parameters in links, to understand what outreach is working

We do not collect payment information. We do not use tracking pixels from third-party
advertising networks.


How we use your information

We use your information only for purposes directly related to why you gave it to us:

  • Event RSVPs: To confirm your registration and send you event reminders
  • Newsletter signup: To send you the newsletter you subscribed to

    explicitly opted in

    your interests

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for their
marketing purposes.


For marketing emails (newsletters, drip sequences), we use a confirmed opt-in process:

  1. You submit a form expressing interest
  2. We send a single confirmation email asking you to verify your address
  3. Only after you click the confirmation link do we add you to any marketing sequence

You may withdraw consent at any time by clicking "Unsubscribe" in any email, or by
visiting the bottom of any email we have sent you to manage exactly which types of emails
you receive.

Data retention

We retain your contact information as long as you are an active subscriber or participant.
If you unsubscribe from all communications, we retain your email address on our

by emailing us directly.
