What we collect, and why

We only collect the information you give us yourself in the forms of this website (for example to contact us, to subscribe to our newsletter, to register for an event or to apply to a programme), and we only use it for the purpose of that form.

We do not sell this information and we do not share it, except with the service providers listed below.

Cookies and visit statistics

The website uses a few cookies:

Necessary cookies, to remember your language and your cookie choice.

Statistics and social network cookies, to count visits and measure our announcements. They do not tell us who you are. For visitors in Europe, they are only set if you click “Accept” in the cookie window.

You can change your choice at any time with the “Cookies” link at the bottom of every page.

How long we keep your data

Only as long as needed for the purpose of the form, and at most 3 years after our last contact. Newsletter: until you unsubscribe (every newsletter has an unsubscribe link).

Who else receives data

Only the service providers we need to run the website: the hosting company, the service that sends our e-mails and newsletter, the statistics and social network services (with your consent in Europe), and the payment platform when you make a donation (your payment details do not pass through this website).

Your rights

You can ask to see, correct or delete your data, or stop receiving the newsletter. Write to secretariat@ideo-cairo.org; we answer within one month.
