Events and Webinars Privacy Notice

Homeward Trust Edmonton hosts webinars and online events, including our Housing Month sessions. This notice explains what information we collect when you register or take part, and how we use it.

Platform

We host online events using a third-party platform, currently Microsoft Teams. The registration page for each event names the platform used. Microsoft processes registration and event information on our behalf; see the Microsoft Privacy Statement.

What we collect

When you register, we collect your name, email address and, if you choose to provide them, your organization, role, and any accessibility needs. The platform also records attendance information such as join and leave times.

Your privacy during the session

Attendee names are hidden from other attendees, and attendee cameras and microphones are off. Questions are submitted through a moderated Q&A and are not shown with your name. Only Homeward Trust organizers and presenters can see who is attending.

Recordings

Sessions are recorded and may be posted on our website and shared with the sector. Recordings show presenters and slides, not attendees. If your question is answered during the session, it may be read aloud without your name.

Why we collect it

We use your information to send you the event link and reminders, provide any accommodations you request, understand who our events reach, and share session materials. We do not sell your information or share it for anyone else’s marketing.

Email updates

We add you to our mailing list only if you tick the box to opt in. You can unsubscribe at any time.

How long we keep it

We keep registration and attendance information for up to 12 months after the event, then delete it. We delete accessibility information after the event.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

We recognize we are gathered, in collaboration and with joint purpose, on Treaty 6 territory. This territory is the traditional home and gathering place for diverse Indigenous Peoples. The nêhiyaw (Cree), Niitsitapi (Blackfoot), Dene, Haudenosaunee (Iroquois), Anishinaabe (Saulteaux/Ojibwe), Nakota Isga (Nakota Sioux), Inuit, and Métis, among many others cared for this land since time immemorial and continue to steward it today. As visitors in this territory, we honour the importance of the Treaty and our responsibility to these communities. Only in partnership can we create the changes necessary to end homelessness. It is vital we meaningfully engage and partner with Indigenous People and communities in this work while recognizing and addressing the conditions brought forth by colonialism. Displacement from traditional homelands, systemic racism, residential schools, the Sixties Scoop, and the ongoing overrepresentation of Indigenous People in child welfare, correctional systems, and homelessness are responsibilities we all share.
