Last updated 12 September 2025

Thank you for visiting Divergent Tabletop!

Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use it, and your rights in relation to that information.

👤 Who We Are

Divergent Tabletop is a community-led initiative focused on hosting social board game events for neurodivergent adults. Our website serves to share event details and provide safe ways to join our community spaces.

We may collect and process the following information:

Name and contact details (e.g. email or phone number if provided via event forms)
Event participation details (via ticketing platforms like Quicket or Tally.so)
Preferences or pronouns (if voluntarily submitted)
Community interactions (within WhatsApp groups, Discord, or similar platforms)

We do not sell or rent your personal data.

🛠️ How We Use Your Information

Your data may be used for:

Managing event registrations
Sending event reminders or updates
Maintaining a safe and respectful community
Improving our services based on feedback

📦 Third-Party Services

We use trusted third-party services to help run our community:

Quicket – for event ticketing
Tally.so – for forms and feedback

These services may collect additional data under their own privacy policies.

🧠 Sensitive Information

We aim to create a welcoming space for neurodivergent adults. While we may host discussions about mental health, neurodivergence, or personal experiences, we do not require you to disclose any personal, medical, or diagnostic information.

Important Privacy Considerations:

Information shared in WhatsApp groups or at events is not confidential and may be seen by other community members
We cannot guarantee that other members will keep information private
Community members are not bound by professional confidentiality requirements
Avoid sharing sensitive personal information (medical details, diagnoses, personal crises) that you wouldn’t want others to repeat or share

We strongly recommend:

Only share what you’re comfortable with others potentially knowing
Save sensitive discussions for licensed professionals bound by confidentiality
Use your judgment about what information to disclose in group settings

While we maintain community guidelines about respect and boundaries, we cannot control what individual members do with information you share. Participate thoughtfully and protect your own privacy.

🔒 Data Security

We take reasonable steps to protect your information, including:

Limiting admin access to private data
Using reputable platforms with security features
Avoiding unnecessary data collection

However, please note that no platform is 100% secure.
