How ESSW handles ticketing, forms, and supporter information.

ESSW collects and uses limited personal information so we can manage events, process ticket bookings, respond to enquiries, support donations, organise volunteers, and work with sponsors.

Ticket bookings

Information is used to manage event tickets, attendee details, QR codes, check-in, and booking support.

Secure payments

Payments may be processed through Stripe, meaning full card details do not need to be stored by ESSW.

Forms help ESSW respond to sponsorship, volunteering, prize donation, fundraising, and general enquiries.
