Privacy Policy

Who we are
Elysian ("we", "us", "our") is a wellness experience business based in New Zealand, run by Libby & Mish (Elizabeth Whittaker and Michelle Leckie). This policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding it.

What we collect

  • Contact details (name, email address, phone number) when you book a retreat, sign up for our newsletter, or contact us

  • Payment information when you book a retreat (processed securely by our third-party payment provider — we do not store your card details ourselves)

  • Any health, dietary, or accessibility information you voluntarily share with us to help us tailor your retreat experience

How we use it

  • To process and confirm your retreat booking

  • To communicate with you about your booking (confirmations, reminders, updates)

  • To send newsletters or marketing emails, only if you've opted in

  • To improve our retreats and services

Who we share it with
We use trusted third-party services to run our business, including:

  • Acuity Scheduling (booking and appointment management)

  • [Stripe/Square] (payment processing)

  • Squarespace Email Campaigns (email newsletters)

These providers only receive the information needed to perform their service and have their own privacy policies.

Data storage and security
We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information from loss, misuse, or unauthorized access. Data is stored securely with our service providers, some of which may store data outside New Zealand.

Your rights
Under the Privacy Act 2020 (NZ), you have the right to access and request correction of your personal information. To do so, contact us at [email address].
