Website Forms
When you submit a contact form or workshop request form, AOR may receive the information entered into the form.
This information is used to review and respond to your inquiry. Form submissions may also be transmitted through or stored by AOR’s website, hosting provider, email service, or form-management tools.
The exact fields collected will depend on the form you choose to complete.
Email Newsletters and Mailchimp
AOR uses Mailchimp to manage newsletter subscriptions and email communications.
When you subscribe, information such as your name, email address, subscription preferences, and interactions with emails may be processed through Mailchimp.
AOR will use newsletter information to send communications where consent has been provided. You may unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in an email.
Mailchimp states that organizations using its services are responsible for maintaining an accessible privacy notice, describing their use of Mailchimp, and obtaining any legally required permissions and consent.
Mailchimp’s own privacy practices are governed by its legal and privacy policies.

When you schedule through Calendly, information may include:

AOR does not sell personal information.
