NECSSN (“we,” “our,” or “us”) operates this website. This privacy policy explains how we handle your information.
Information We Collect
Voluntary information
We collect information you voluntarily submit through the following channels:
- Newsletter signup: Your email address (only collected if you explicitly opt in).
- Contact form: Your name, email address, and how you heard about us.
Automatically collected information
- Cookies: Our WordPress site sets minimal session cookies required for basic functionality. We do not use tracking, analytics, or advertising cookies.
- Server logs: Like most web hosts, our server may automatically record standard access logs (IP address, browser type, referring page, date/time). These are retained for security and operational purposes and are not shared with third parties.
Third-party embedded content
Our website may include embedded content from third-party services (e.g., YouTube, social media widgets). These services may collect information about your visit and, if you’re logged into their platform, may track your activity on our site. We do not control how these third parties use your data — we encourage you to review their respective privacy policies.
How We Use Your Information
We use voluntarily submitted information solely for the purposes it was provided:
- Contact form submissions are used to respond to your inquiries.
- If you opt in, your email address may be used for newsletter distribution via Listmonk.
Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
Newsletter distribution is managed by self-hosted infrastructure so no data is sent to external email-marketing providers.
Emails are delivered through Forwardemail, which we use as our SMTP service.
Third-party embedded content providers may collect data as described above; we have no control over this.
Data Retention
We retain voluntarily submitted information indefinitely until you request removal or opt out of the newsletter. Contact form data is retained indefinitely for record-keeping.
To request deletion of your data at any time, contact us at info@necssn.org.
Children’s Privacy
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13 (or under 16, where applicable). If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected such data, we will delete it promptly.
Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding your personal data, including the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@necssn.org.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Material changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
