Privacy Policy
Effective date: August 20, 2026
Ascend Impact LLC, operating the TonSpeaks website, respects the privacy of visitors to this site. This policy explains what information may be collected when you visit www.tonspeaks.com, how it may be used, and the choices available to you.
Information You Provide
When you submit an inquiry or contact form, we may receive information such as:
- your name
- email address
- organization
- event information
- message or inquiry details
- other information you voluntarily provide
This information is used to respond to inquiries, communicate about potential speaking or facilitation engagements, and provide requested information. We do not sell personal information to advertisers.
Website Analytics
The website uses Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to help understand how visitors use the site. Analytics may collect information such as:
- pages viewed
- approximate geographic region
- device and browser type
- referral source
- interactions with the website
This information is generally used in aggregated form to understand site performance and improve the visitor experience.
Google Analytics is not loaded at all until a visitor accepts optional cookies through the consent banner. No analytics scripts, cookies, or tracking requests are sent before consent. If a visitor declines, Google Analytics is never loaded. Visitors can change their preference at any time using the Cookie Preferences link in the website footer. Withdrawing consent disables analytics and deletes any previously set Google Analytics cookies.
Contact Forms
Website inquiry forms may be processed using Formspree or another form-processing provider currently configured on the website. Information submitted through a form may be processed by that service in order to deliver the inquiry to Ascend Impact LLC.
Embedded Content
Some pages may contain embedded content from third-party platforms such as YouTube. Embedded videos use YouTube's privacy-enhanced domain (youtube-nocookie.com) to reduce third-party tracking. When a visitor interacts with embedded content, those third parties may collect information according to their own privacy policies and technologies.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
The website and third-party services used by the website may use cookies or similar technologies for functionality, analytics, embedded media, or performance. Google Analytics is not loaded until a visitor accepts optional cookies through the consent banner. No analytics cookies are set before consent. Visitors can manage cookies through their browser settings and can change their cookie preference at any time using the Cookie Preferences link in the footer. Withdrawing consent deletes any previously set Google Analytics cookies.
How Information Is Used
Information collected through the website may be used to:
- respond to inquiries
- communicate regarding speaking, facilitation, or event opportunities
- operate and improve the website
- understand site usage
- maintain website security and functionality
- comply with applicable legal obligations
Sharing of Information
Personal information may be shared with service providers when reasonably necessary to operate the website or respond to an inquiry. Examples may include website hosting, analytics, form processing, and embedded-media providers. Personal information is not sold to advertisers.
Data Security
Reasonable administrative and technical measures are used to protect information. However, no internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
External Links
The website may contain links to third-party websites. Ascend Impact LLC is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party websites.
Your Choices
Visitors may:
- choose not to submit personal information through the website
- accept or decline optional analytics cookies through the consent banner
- change their cookie preference at any time using the Cookie Preferences link in the footer
- withdraw consent, which disables analytics and deletes existing Google Analytics cookies
- manage cookies through browser settings

Children's Privacy
The website markets speaking and facilitation services that may serve youth audiences, but the website itself is directed primarily to event organizers, educators, ministry leaders, organizations, parents, and other adults seeking information about those services. The website is not intended to knowingly collect personal information directly from children through its inquiry forms. If information believed to have been submitted by a child needs attention, visitors may contact Ascend Impact LLC.
Changes to This Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically. The effective date at the top of the page should indicate the latest revision.
