This page explains what BC + AI Ecosystem Association collects on bc-ai.ca, who we share it with, and how to reach us about your own data.
Last updated: July 2, 2026
What we collect
If you become a member, we collect your name, email, and anything you add to your profile: bio, links, skills, avatar photo. If you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect your email. Signing in uses a one-time email link, so there’s no password to store.
Payments
Stripe handles membership payments. Your card number never touches our servers. We keep the billing records needed to run membership, such as your Stripe customer ID, subscription status, membership tier, price, renewal dates, invoices, and payment-event records.
Certificates
When you join, we send your name and email to Certifier, which issues and emails your membership certificate.
Photos and uploads
Member avatars and event photos are stored in Cloudflare R2, a file storage service.
Newsletter
Newsletter subscriptions are managed in Beehiiv. You can unsubscribe from any newsletter email at any time.
Events
Event registration happens on Luma. When you RSVP to an event, that goes through Luma’s own systems under its privacy policy, not ours.
Site analytics
We use Google Analytics and Vercel Analytics to see which pages get visited and how the site performs. Both may set cookies or similar tracking in your browser.
Where things run
The site is hosted on Vercel. Our member database runs on Neon. Resend sends our transactional email: sign-in links, receipts, and welcome messages.
Who we share your data with
We share data only with the services on this page, and only as needed to run them: Stripe, Neon, Resend, Vercel, Certifier, Cloudflare R2, Beehiiv, Luma, and Google Analytics. Each has its own privacy policy, and some store data outside Canada. We don’t sell your data.
How long we keep it
We keep membership and profile data while your membership is active. If you cancel or ask us to delete your data, email us and we’ll take care of it. We still keep records required for legal or accounting reasons.
Your rights
Email hello@bc-ai.ca or use our contact page to ask what we hold about you, get a copy, or have it deleted.
