Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 11, 2026
Welcome to this website. This website is operated by Ted Sun Volunteer Team. The following explains what data we collect, why we collect it, who processes it, how long we retain it, and what you can do. By checking “I have read and agree to the Privacy Statement” on this website's form and submitting it, you consent to our collection, processing, and use of your data in accordance with this statement.
- 1. Key Points
Ted Sun Volunteer Team collects your data on this website. We collect data to process your requests and enquiries, send you the materials you request, notify you about courses and events (including free and paid courses and events), send newsletters, analyse and improve website content, and for the advertising purposes listed under “Website Settings” at the end of this statement.
The data we collect includes the name, email address, country or region, and enquiry details you enter in forms, as well as device and browser information, browsing and click records, approximate location, cookies or related identifiers when you browse the website; if you receive our emails, it also includes whether you open them and which links you click.
If you do not complete the required form fields or check the consent box, we will be unable to process your request; refusing analytics or advertising cookies does not affect your ability to browse the website. You may ask us to stop sending marketing messages at any time or exercise the other rights listed in section 12.
- 2. Scope
This statement applies to the data we collect and process when you browse this website, use its forms, or receive emails from us. Other websites linked from this website are subject to their own privacy policies.
- 3. Data You Provide and Its Uses
When you complete a book request, enquiry, or contact form, we ask you to provide your name, email address, country or region, and the details of your enquiry. Once you check the consent box and submit the form, we use this data to:
- Respond to your enquiries, send you the materials you request, and contact you about related matters.
- Notify you by email or other means about our courses and events (including free and paid courses and events), and send newsletters.
- To the extent enabled, provide your email address and other contact data to advertising platforms (such as Meta/Facebook and Google) in encrypted (hashed) form to show you our advertisements or find people with similar interests so that they can also see our messages. See section 6 for details.
Every marketing email we send includes a way to unsubscribe; you may also ask us at any time via the “Contact Us” page on this website to stop sending marketing messages or to stop using your data for advertising audiences. We will stop the relevant use upon receiving your request.
- 4. Website Analytics and Cookies
This website uses Google Analytics (a website analytics service provided by Google), loaded through Google Tag Manager. When you browse webpages, it uses cookies and similar technologies to record which pages you view, how long you stay, your device and browser, your approximate location, and a random code that identifies the same browser.
We do not send form field contents, names, or email addresses to Google Analytics; form data and website analytics are processed separately.
- 5. Emails and Interaction Records
Our emails may be sent through an email marketing service (the service actually used is listed under “Website Settings” at the end of this statement). Such services record whether you open an email, which links in it you click, and when you click them, and associate these records with your email address to help us understand which content is useful to you and improve the content we send in the future. Links in emails may include tracking parameters that tell us which email brought you to this website.
- 6. Advertising Features
The advertising features actually enabled on this website are listed under “Website Settings” at the end of this statement. Each feature is explained below:
- Google signals (cross-device and demographic analytics): For users signed in to a Google Account with Ads Personalization enabled, Google may associate this website's analytics data with their Google Account information to produce aggregated reports on cross-device use, age, gender, and interests (we cannot see who individual users are).
- Remarketing: Showing advertisements for this website on other websites or apps to people who have previously visited this website.
- List-based advertising audiences: Uploading email addresses and other contact data obtained through forms to advertising platforms in encrypted (hashed) form to match the corresponding users on those platforms, show them our advertisements, or use the matches to find users with similar interests (lookalike audiences). After matching, advertising platforms handle this data according to their rules.
- Within the scope of enabled features, this website's cookies or identifiers (first-party) may be used together with advertising platforms' cookies or identifiers (third-party).
- 7. Regions Requiring Prior Consent
In regions where the law requires prior consent for analytics or advertising cookies, this website enables website analytics or advertising features only after offering a consent option and obtaining your explicit consent; if this website does not offer a consent option, these features remain disabled. See “Website Settings” at the end of this statement for the practices in each region.

- 9. Retention Periods and Processing Locations
- Website analytics data: Retained for the period listed under “Website Settings” at the end of this statement; age, gender, and interest data and aggregated reports are handled separately according to Google's retention rules.
- Form data and email interaction records: Retained until the collection purpose is fulfilled, you request deletion, or the legally required and necessary retention periods expire.
- This website's hosting, email, analytics, and advertising services are supplied by contracted service providers; data processing locations depend on the providers' services.
- 10. Who Processes the Data
We do not sell or rent your personal data. To operate this website and carry out the uses described above, we engage or provide data to the following types of service providers for processing, limited to what is necessary to provide their services: website hosting providers, email and email marketing services, Google (website analytics and advertising features), and social media and advertising platforms (such as Meta/Facebook, only when list-based advertising audiences are enabled). In addition, we may provide data in accordance with the law when legally required or when necessary to protect your or others' life, bodily integrity, liberty, or property.
- 11. Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your data and restrict access to personnel who need it. However, internet transmission cannot be guaranteed to be completely secure.
- 12. Your Rights
Under the personal data protection laws applicable where you are located (such as Taiwan's Personal Data Protection Act), you may request: information about or access to your data, a copy, supplementation or rectification, cessation of collection, processing, or use, or erasure; you may also withdraw your consent at any time (processing carried out before withdrawal is unaffected). If the laws where you are located grant other rights (such as data portability), we also handle requests in accordance with those laws. Please contact us via the “Contact Us” page on this website. We will explain the reasons for any data that must still be retained by law or to fulfil necessary obligations.
- 13. Changes to This Statement
We may revise this statement due to changes in laws, services, or technology; we will update this page and indicate the updated date after making changes. When enabling or disabling features, we will also update “Website Settings”.
