There are, however, certain limited circumstances where it is necessary to send patron information to select third-partys. Alchemy Theatre Society contracts third-party agencies to sell tickets, prepare mailings, and conduct research on its behalf.

When we do provide your personal information to said third-parties, we provide only the information that is required in the circumstances. Information provided is used only for the purpose stipulated and is subject to strict terms of confidentiality. Some service providers may be located outside of Canada where personal information may be subject to the laws of those jurisdictions.
