International Alliance of Women Privacy Policy

PROTECTION OF PRIVACY

 

This privacy policy will explain how the International Alliance of Women uses the personal data we collect from you when you join us as a member and/or use our website.

The personal data of members are provided by themselves or related to the functions they occupy/ied in International Alliance of Women (“IAW”). The data consist of name, address, fax- and phone number, e-mail address, year of becoming a member in IAW and, if they are given: professional qualifications and year of birth. IAW does not track its members or collect any data in addition to what is provided (except information about payment of fees), does not sell advertising based on your data (“ad tracking” or “profiling”) nor does it make data available to outside organizations unless this is necessary to represent the Alliance at the UN and other international bodies. There may be photos of IAW events. Photos may be used in IAW publications.

The members of the Extended Board receive a list of Extended Board members for internal communication, under the provision that they will keep the data confidential and will not sell them.

Data may be exchanged among key members of IAW to keep archives updated and thus fulfill IAW’s obligations to members and subscribers.

The data are used for justifiable causes: internal communication and archive purposes. (art. 6.1(f) GDPR) Members have the right to a perusal of their data and the right to have them corrected. (cf art 15 +16 GDPR).

When the members end their membership in IAW they can ask for their data to be removed.(cf art. 17 GDPR). No special data in the sense of GDPR are known to IAW. (art.9 GDPR) The data are saved in a database hosted by Make the Shift Lda, Portugal, with whom IAW has an agreement about the protection of IAW data.

The Membership Secretary is responsible for the use of the database, either by herself or by authorized members, such as (Assistant) Secretary General and Treasurer. They will get a password for that purpose.  Relevant portions of the data will be made available to Affiliate and Associate members and to the National Collectors. The printers of IWN, the official publication of IAW, receive a file of names and physical addresses, every time it is necessary to print.

Newsletters and other information necessary for members may be sent to members and subscribers by a Third Party Provider (p.t. MailChimp),  who works on behalf of International Alliance of Women. We only provide any Third Party Provider with the personal data that is necessary for them to deliver the service. MailChimp provides statistical and analytics information about how the Newsletter etc is received by readers.
