What we collect and why.
Last updated October 25, 2026
This describes what actually happens on this site, not a generic template. If something here is unclear, ask us and we will fix the wording.
What we collect
When you join the mailing list, we store:
- Your email address, which is required
- Your first name, last name, and industry, if you choose to give them
- Which page you signed up from, and any campaign tags in the link you followed
- A one-way hash of your IP address. We never store the address itself. The hash exists only so we can investigate abuse.
If you contact us or submit a sponsor enquiry, we store what you put in the form.
If you pitch a talk, we store your name, email, phone if you give it, company, job title, LinkedIn and video links, your talk title and abstract, what you have shipped, and whether you have spoken before. Speaker pitches are seen only by the organising team.
Ticket sales are not open yet. When they open, we will store your order and attendee details, and Stripe will store the payment information. Card numbers will never touch our servers.
What we do with it
We email you about this conference: when tickets open, who is speaking, and what you need to know on the day. We do not sell your details, we do not rent them, and we do not hand your email to sponsors. Sponsors get to meet you in the room, which is the point.
Who else processes it
- Supabase hosts the database
- Vercel hosts the site and provides privacy-friendly analytics without cookies
- Resend delivers our email
- Stripe processes payments
Cookies
This site sets no advertising or tracking cookies. Vercel Analytics counts page views without cookies, and only if you choose Accept all in the cookie banner. The cookies page lists everything stored in your browser and lets you change your choice. The site does not respond to Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control signals; the cookie banner is how you opt out.
Your choices
Every email has a one-click unsubscribe. You can also ask us to show you what we hold, correct it, or delete it entirely, and we will do that within 30 days. Ticket and payment records may have to be kept longer where tax or accounting rules require it.
Children
This site is not aimed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their details. If you think a child has signed up, email us and we will delete it.
Changes to this page
When we change how we handle your details, we update this page and the date at the top.
