Privacy Policy

Overview

This Privacy Policy describes how The Worthy Standard ("we," "us," or "our"), a program of Malkant Group, collects, uses, stores, and protects personal information you provide through our website at theworthystandard.com, through program registration, and through participation in our sessions and assessments.

By visiting our website, registering for a session, or completing an action plan assessment, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use our website or services.

Questions about this policy can be directed to privacy@theworthystandard.com.

What We Collect

We collect information in the following categories:

Information you provide directly

• Name and email address when you register, contact us, or join a waitlist
• Responses to our personalized action plan generator — including answers to questions about your relationship patterns, emotional tendencies, and behavioral goals
• Messages you send through our contact form or via email
• Payment information — processed entirely by Eventbrite; we do not store card details

Information collected automatically

• Basic website analytics — pages visited, time on page, traffic source
• Device and browser type for technical optimization
• IP address (used for general geographic analytics only, not individual identification)

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect only for the following purposes:

• To deliver your session experience and generate your personalized action plan
• To send confirmations, session reminders, and follow-up program information
• To respond to your inquiries and support requests
• To notify waitlist members when new programs or sessions open
• To improve our program design and user experience — using aggregate, anonymized data only
• To comply with legal obligations where required

We do not use your information for advertising targeting, profiling for third-party purposes, or any automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects.

Action Plan Assessment Data

The personalized action plan generator is the core of our program experience. The responses you provide are personal, sensitive, and treated accordingly.

Aggregate, fully anonymized patterns from assessment data may be used to improve our framework design. No individual's responses are identifiable in this process.

If you wish to have your assessment data deleted, you may request this at any time by contacting privacy@theworthystandard.com.

Third Parties

We work with a limited number of trusted third-party services to operate our program. We do not sell your data to any third party, and we do not share your information with advertisers.

• Eventbrite — used for session registration and payment processing. Their privacy policy governs information collected through their platform.
• Email service provider — used to deliver program communications and session reminders. Used only for transactional and program-related emails.
• Website analytics — aggregate, anonymized data used to understand how our website is used and improve the experience.

We require all third-party providers to maintain appropriate data protection standards consistent with applicable law.

Eventbrite

Session registration and payment for The Worthy Standard entry experience is processed through Eventbrite. When you register via Eventbrite, you are also subject to Eventbrite's Privacy Policy, available at eventbrite.com.

Information collected through Eventbrite — including your name, email, and payment details — is governed by their terms. We receive only the information necessary to confirm your registration and deliver your session access.

Email Communications

By registering for a session or joining a waitlist, you consent to receive program-related emails from The Worthy Standard. These include:

• Session confirmation and access details
• Pre-session preparation materials
• Post-session follow-up and action plan delivery
• Information about the full program when relevant to your registration
• Waitlist notifications when new programs open

You may unsubscribe from non-essential communications at any time via the unsubscribe link in any email. Transactional emails related to a session you have paid for cannot be opted out of while your enrollment is active.

Cookies & Analytics

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies for basic functionality and aggregate analytics. We do not use cookies for advertising or cross-site tracking.

• Essential cookies — required for the website to function correctly
• Analytics cookies — used to understand aggregate traffic patterns and improve the website experience. No individual user is identified.

You may disable cookies in your browser settings. Disabling essential cookies may affect website functionality.

We retain your information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy:

• Registration and contact information is retained for the duration of your program participation and for a reasonable period thereafter for record-keeping purposes
