Privacy Policy

Beyond the Subconscious is the practice of Natasha Bolvin, based in Toronto, Canada. This policy explains what personal information may be collected through beyondthesubconscious.com, how it is used, where it may be processed and the choices available to you.

This policy is intended to describe how personal information is handled under applicable Canadian privacy requirements, including the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act, commonly known as PIPEDA.

What is collected

Contact and inquiry information

When you submit an inquiry, application or scheduling form, you may provide your name, email address, availability, time zone and anything you choose to include in your responses.

Personal information shared through applications

Depending on the offering, you may voluntarily provide information about your dreams, birth date, birth time, birth location, spiritual experiences, life circumstances, goals, challenges, interests and readiness to participate in a service.

Purchases and bookings

Transaction and booking information may be collected when you purchase a product, reserve a session or enrol in an offering. Payments may be made through Stripe, PayPal or Interac e Transfer. Beyond the Subconscious does not receive or store complete card or banking credentials processed by these services.

Email subscriptions

When you subscribe to Letters from Beyond the Subconscious, your email address and subscription preferences are handled through Substack. You may unsubscribe using the link included in any subscription email.

Technical information

The website host, form provider and any enabled analytics services may automatically receive limited technical information such as your IP address, browser, device type, referring page and pages visited.

How it is used

Personal information may be used:

  1. To respond to inquiries and applications.
  2. To schedule and provide sessions, mentorships, experiences and products.
  3. To process purchases and maintain appropriate business and tax records.
  4. To send emails and invitations that you have requested.
  5. To administer the website, troubleshoot problems and understand how it is used.
  6. To comply with legal, accounting and security obligations.

Personal information is not sold.

Dreams, personal experiences and other sensitive information shared through forms or sessions are treated as private and are not disclosed without your consent, except where required by law or where necessary to provide the service you requested.

Service providers

Beyond the Subconscious uses third party services to operate the website and deliver its offerings. These may include:

  1. Formspree for website forms.
  2. Stripe and PayPal for payment processing.
  3. Substack for email subscriptions and publications.
  4. Manus for website hosting.
  5. Analytics services, only if they are enabled.

Some providers may process or store information outside Canada, including in the United States. Personal information processed outside Canada may be subject to the laws of that jurisdiction.

Cookies and similar technologies

The website may use technologies necessary for forms, security, payments and basic site operation. External services linked or embedded on the website may also use their own cookies under their respective privacy policies.

If analytics or advertising technologies are added in the future, this policy and the website’s consent controls will be updated before those technologies are activated.

How long information is kept

Personal information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the requested service, maintain required business and tax records, resolve disputes and meet legal obligations. Information that is no longer required is deleted, securely destroyed or anonymized.

How information is protected

Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse or disclosure. The safeguards used are proportionate to the sensitivity of the information.

No method of electronic transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Your rights

You may ask to access the personal information held about you, request that inaccurate information be corrected or withdraw consent to certain uses. You may also request deletion of personal information, subject to legal, accounting and legitimate business requirements.

Privacy requests will generally be answered within 30 days.

If a privacy concern cannot be resolved directly, you may contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada. Residents of Quebec may also contact the Commission d’accès à l’information du Québec where applicable.
