Privacy Policy

How we collect, use, and protect your information

Last Updated: January 15, 2025

At Womanon NPC, as the case may be (“Womanon,” “we,” “us” or “our”), we take your privacy and the security of your information seriously.

This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) covers Womanon owned and operated websites (“Site” or “Sites”), including “https://womanon.org”, “https://womany.org”, and any services offered via the Site (collectively, the “Services”). This Privacy Policy is incorporated into, and is part of, our Terms of Service available at https://womanon.org/terms-of-use which govern your access to the Site and your use of the Site and/or Services. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalised terms shall have the meaning assigned to such terms in the Terms of Service.

If you have any questions regarding this Policy, please contact us at info@womanon.org

The Policy describes the types of information we gather from people visiting our Site and from individual users (“you” or “users”) interacting with our Site and how we use, transfer, and secure such information. By accessing any Site or using any Services, you agree to be bound by this Policy. This Policy does not govern information we receive from third parties. If you do not agree to the terms of this Policy, please do not use the Site, or any of our Services. Each time you use any Site or Services, the current version of this Policy will apply. Accordingly, when you use any Site or Services, you should check the date of this Policy (which appears at the top) and review any changes since you last reviewed the Policy.

1. TYPES OF INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We may collect two types of information from users of our Sites and Services: “Personal Information,” which is information that you provide that can be used to identify you (such as name, email address, etc.), and “Aggregate Information,” which is information that cannot be used to identify you (such as frequency of visits to the Site, browser type, etc.)

1.1. Personal Information Collected

1.1.1. We collect Personal Information that you voluntarily provide to us when you use our Sites and Services. For example, you may provide us with your email address, first name and last name, a message (which could, at your discretion, contain Personal Information), or other Personal Information.

1.1.2. We do not control your use of our Sites and Services to share Personal Information with others. If you choose to share information publicly through our Site or Services, where such sharing is made possible, please understand that we cannot control the actions of third parties who could collect this information.

1.1.3. Some links on our Site may redirect you to third party websites and services that Womanon does not operate. The privacy practices of these websites and services will be governed by their own policies. We make no representation or warranty as to the privacy policies of any third parties, including the providers of third-party applications.

2. AGGREGATE INFORMATION COLLECTED

2.1. Aggregate Information is information that does not identify you. Aggregate Information may be collected when you visit our Site or interact with our Services, independent of any information you voluntarily enter. We may collect, use, store, and transfer Aggregate Information without restriction.

2.2. For example, when you visit our Site, some information is automatically collected. Such information could include your operating system, the site from which you linked to us (“referring page”), the name of the website you choose to visit immediately after ours (called the “exit page”), information about other websites you have recently visited, browser type and language, device identifier numbers, your site activity, and the time and date of your visit.

2.3. Use of “Cookies”

2.3.1. Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer’s hard drive through your web browser to help us identify you when you come to our Site. You can learn more about cookies and how they work at www.allaboutcookies.org. You can opt-out from third party cookies that are used for advertising purposes on the NAI website at https://thenai.org/opt-out/

2.4. Analytics

2.4.1. We may use third parties, such as Google Analytics or other analytics providers, to analyse traffic to a Site. To disable Google Analytics, please download the browser add-on at http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

3. SHARING OF PERSONAL INFORMATION WITH THIRD PARTIES

3.1. We may transfer Personal Information to third parties for the purpose of providing the Services. We may disclose Personal Information to our affiliates or third party service providers to provide you with the Services.

3.2. We may also elect to transfer your Personal Information to third parties under special circumstances: (i) to comply with legal requirements; (ii) to investigate possible crimes; (iii) in connection with business transactions; (iv) to protect rights and safety; or (v) as otherwise permitted by law.
