Politique de confidentialité
Cette politique explique comment le Mulenge Scholars Network recueille, utilise et protège vos renseignements personnels lorsque vous utilisez notre site ou nos services.
Information We Collect
We collect information you provide directly to us, such as your name, email address, phone number, and any details you submit through our contact form, newsletter signup, membership or volunteer application, event registration, or donation forms.
We may also automatically collect limited technical information, such as browser type, device type, and pages visited, to help us understand how the site is used and to keep it secure.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to respond to inquiries, process applications and event registrations, send newsletters and program updates, administer our mentorship and scholarship programs, and improve our website and services.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.
Cookies and Analytics
This website may use essential cookies required for core functionality, such as remembering your language preference. We do not currently use third-party advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.
If we adopt analytics tools in the future, we will update this policy to describe what is collected and how it is used.
Third-Party Services and Data Processors
We use trusted third-party service providers to operate this website and deliver our programs, including hosting and infrastructure (Vercel), content and database management (Payload CMS), file storage (Supabase and Vercel Blob), and email delivery for notifications and correspondence.
These providers process information on our behalf and are only permitted to use it to provide services to MSN, in line with their own privacy and security practices.
Data Storage and Security
We take reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect the personal information we hold against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Youth and Children's Privacy
Some of our programs support high school-aged scholars. Where a program participant is a minor, we collect only the information reasonably necessary to administer the program and, where appropriate, involve a parent or guardian in the application and communication process.
If you believe a minor has provided us with personal information without appropriate consent, please contact us so we can address it promptly.
Data Sharing and Disclosure
We may share your information with the service providers described above, with partner organizations directly involved in a program you participate in, or when required by law, to protect our rights, or to protect the safety of our community.
Your Rights and Choices
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of the personal information we hold about you, and you may unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time using the link included in our emails.
To make a request, contact us using the details below and we will respond within a reasonable time.
Data Retention
We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, administer our programs, and meet legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
International Data Transfers
MSN is based in Canada, and some of the third-party providers we use may store or process information on servers located outside of Canada. Where this occurs, we take steps to ensure your information continues to receive an appropriate level of protection.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Updates will be posted on this page and become effective when published unless otherwise stated.
