The PrevRHD website aims to raise awareness about rheumatic heart disease (RHD) prevention. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

Information We Collect

• Information you provide directly: When you use our contact form, we collect your name, email address, and the content of your message. If you subscribe to a newsletter or sign up for updates, we collect your email address.
• Automatically collected information: Like most websites, we may collect standard technical data (IP address, browser type, pages visited, time spent) through analytics tools, to help us understand how the Site is used.
• Cookies: We may use cookies or similar technologies for basic site functionality and analytics. You can disable cookies in your browser settings; some features may not work as intended if you do.

We do not sell your personal information. We do not use contact form submissions to provide medical advice or diagnosis (see our Medical Disclaimer).

Sharing of Information

We may share information with:

• Partner NGOs involved in hosting or supporting this awareness program, solely for purposes related to the program
• Service providers who help us operate the Site (e.g., hosting, email delivery), under confidentiality obligations
• Authorities, where required by law

We do not share your information with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

Data Retention

We retain contact form submissions and related correspondence only as long as necessary to respond to your inquiry and for record-keeping purposes, after which they are deleted or anonymized.
