PRIVACY POLICY
Effective Date: September 3, 2026
Dan Ward Yoga respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you share with us through danwardyoga.com (the “Website”).

This information may include your name, email address, message, registration information, and any other information you choose to provide.
We do not directly collect or store complete credit card or payment account information. Payments, ticket purchases, registrations, and donations may be processed by third-party providers under their own privacy policies and terms.
Information Collected Automatically
When you visit the Website, certain information may be collected automatically, including:

EMAIL COMMUNICATIONS AND MAILCHIMP
We use Mailchimp to manage newsletter subscriptions and email communications.
When you subscribe, the information entered into the signup form, including your email address and any other requested information, is transmitted to and processed by Mailchimp. Mailchimp may also process information related to email delivery and engagement, such as whether an email was delivered, opened, or clicked.
You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by selecting the “unsubscribe” link included at the bottom of each email. You may also contact us directly at [EMAIL ADDRESS].
Mailchimp is operated by The Rocket Science Group LLC and is part of Intuit. Its handling of information is governed by Intuit’s privacy practices.
ACCESSIBILITY TECHNOLOGY
We use accessiBe accessibility technology to provide accessibility-related tools and improve the Website experience for visitors with disabilities.
When the accessiBe interface is used, accessiBe may process certain technical information, such as browser, device, interaction, or accessibility-preference information, as necessary to operate its services. Information processed by accessiBe is subject to accessiBe’s own privacy notice.
COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES
The Website and its service providers may use cookies and similar technologies to:
• Remember user settings and preferences
• Support accessibility functionality
• Operate newsletter and contact forms
• Maintain Website security and performance

• Measure email or campaign activity
You can adjust your browser settings to refuse or delete cookies. Disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality or accessibility of parts of the Website.
DO NOT TRACK
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” preference. Because there is not currently a universally accepted standard for responding to these signals, the Website may not respond to every Do Not Track request. You may still manage cookies through your browser settings and use the privacy choices offered by applicable third-party services.
THIRD-PARTY SERVICES AND LINKS
The Website may link to or use services operated by third parties, including:
• Mailchimp
• accessiBe

When you leave the Website or interact with an embedded third-party service, that provider’s privacy policy and terms apply. Dan Ward Yoga is not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of third-party websites or services.
DATA SHARING
We do not sell or rent your personal information.
We may share information with service providers that help us operate the Website, deliver communications, manage registrations, support accessibility, or provide related services. These providers may process information only as permitted by their agreements and applicable law.
We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with a legal obligation, protect our rights, prevent fraud or misuse, or respond to a lawful request.
DATA RETENTION
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, comply with legal requirements, resolve disputes, or maintain appropriate business records.
Newsletter information may remain in Mailchimp until you unsubscribe, request deletion, or the information is otherwise removed in accordance with our account settings and legal obligations.
DATA SECURITY
We take reasonable administrative and technical measures intended to protect personal information. However, no website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
