This Privacy Policy is designed to tell you about our practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of information that you may provide via this site. Please be sure to read this entire Privacy Policy and Disclaimer Document before using or submitting information to this site. This site is intended for use by residents of the Republic of Kenya.

Legal Notice

The content of this site, including but not limited to the text and images herein and their arrangement, is the property of the Kenya Women & Children’s Wellness Centre (KWCWC).

KWCWC at this moment authorizes the copying and displaying of the content herein for personal use only.

Limited quotations from the content herein are hereby permitted, on condition that the proper attribution to KWCWC is made. You may not copy or display for redistribution to third parties for commercial purposes any portion of the content without the prior written permission of KWCWC.

Your Consent.

By using this site, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy and Disclaimer Document. Whenever you submit information via this site, you consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of that information by this Privacy Policy.

About Children.

This site is not intended for children under the age of 15. We will not knowingly collect personally identifiable information via this site from visitors in this age group. We encourage parents to talk to their children about their use of the Internet and the information they disclose to Web sites.

Information You Provide.

Some areas of this site may ask you to submit personally identifiable information for you to benefit from the specified features (such as newsletter subscriptions, tips/pointers, order processing, or resume submission) or to participate in a particular activity. You will be informed what information is required and what information is optional.

Passive Information Collection.

As you navigate through this site, certain anonymous information can be passively collected (that is, gathered without your actively providing the information) using various technologies, such as cookies, Internet tags or web beacons, and navigational data collection (log files, server logs, clickstream). Your Internet browser automatically transmits to this site some of this anonymous information, such as the URL of the Web site you just came from and the Internet Protocol (IP) address, and the browser version your computer is currently using. This site may also collect anonymous information from your computer through cookies and Internet tags or web beacons. You may set your browser to notify you when a cookie is sent or to refuse cookies altogether, but certain features of this site might not work without cookies.

This site may use and combine such passively collected anonymous information to provide better service to site visitors, customize the site based on your preferences, compile and analyze statistics and trends, and otherwise administer and improve the site for your use. Such information is not combined with personally identifiable information collected elsewhere on the site unless you have consented.

More Information About Cookies.

A “cookie” is a bit of information that a Web site sends to the Web browser that helps the site remember information about you and your preferences.

“Session” cookies are temporary bits of information that are used to improve navigation, block visitors from providing information where inappropriate (the site “remembers” previous entries of age or country of origin that were outside the specified parameters and blocks subsequent changes), and collect aggregate statistical information on the site. They are erased once you exit your Web browser or otherwise turn off your computer.

“Persistent” cookies are more permanent bits of information that are placed on the hard drive of your computer and stay there unless you delete the cookie. Persistent cookies store information on your computer for several purposes, such as retrieving certain information you have previously provided (such as passwords), helping to determine what areas of the Web site visitors find most valuable, and customizing the Web site based on your preferences on an ongoing basis. Persistent cookies placed by this site on your computer may hold personally identifiable information, but only if you have registered or have otherwise consented to the retention of personally identifiable information you have provided at the site. Otherwise, our site’s server only knows that an unidentified visitor with your cookie has returned to the site. You can set your browser to accept all cookies, reject all cookies, or notify you whenever a cookie is offered so that you can decide each time whether to accept it. To learn more about cookies and how to specify your preferences, please search for “cookie” in the “Help” portion of your browser.

A site may use Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. An IP address is a number assigned to your computer by your Internet service provider so you can access the Internet and is generally considered to be non-personally identifiable information, because in most cases an IP address is dynamic (changing each time you connect to the Internet), rather than static (unique to a particular user’s computer). The IP address can be used to diagnose problems with a server, report aggregate information, determine the fastest route for your computer to use in connecting to a site, and administer and improve the site.

“Internet tags” (also known as single-pixel GIFs, clear GIFs, invisible GIFs, and 1-by-1 GIFs) are smaller than cookies and tell the Web site server information such as the IP address and browser type related to the visitor’s computer. Tags may be placed both on online advertisements that bring people to the site and on different pages. Such tags indicate how often a page is opened and which information is consulted.

“Navigational data” (log files, server logs, and clickstream data) are used for system management, to improve the content of the site, for market research purposes, and to communicate information to visitors.

Use and Disclosure of Information.

Except as otherwise stated, we may use information collected via this site to improve the content of our site, to customize the site to your preferences, to communicate information to you (if you have requested it), for our marketing and research purposes, and any other purpose specified. In addition, we may make full use of all information acquired through this site that is not in personally identifiable form.

Therefore, the information provided by you to KWCWC including but not limited to feedback, data, questions, comments, suggestions, or the like, shall be deemed to be non-confidential; KWCWC shall have no obligation of any kind concerning such information and shall be free to reproduce, use, disclose, and distribute the information to others without limitation. Additionally, KWCWC shall be free to use any ideas, concepts, know-how, or techniques contained in such information for any purpose whatsoever, including but not limited to developing manufacturing, and marketing products incorporating such information.

If you provide personally identifiable information to this site, we may combine such information with other actively collected information unless we specify otherwise at the point of collection. We may disclose personally identifiable information you provide via this site to other KWCWC Services or affiliates worldwide that agree to treat it per this Privacy Policy and use it for the same purposes.

The collection, use, and disclosure of information contemplated in this Privacy Policy may involve a transfer of the information to jurisdictions located outside your country of residence that may not have equivalent laws and rules regarding personally identifiable information. In these cases, you will be asked to consent to such transfers and disclosures per this Privacy Policy.

Access, Correction, and Deletion

To keep the personally identifiable information that you provide via this site accurate, current, and complete, please contact us as specified below and we will take appropriate steps to update or correct such information in our possession, or to delete your information from our contact list.

Security

This site takes reasonable steps to protect personally identifiable information as you transmit it to our site and to protect such information from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. You should keep in mind that no Internet transmission is ever completely secure or error-free. In particular, e-mails sent to or from this site may not be secure.

This site may contain links or references to other Web sites to which this Privacy Policy does not apply. We encourage you to read the Privacy Policy of every Web site you visit as some of the sites listed as links herein are not under the control of KWCWC. Accordingly; KWCWC makes no representations whatsoever concerning the content of those sites. The fact that KWCWC has provided a link to a site is NOT an endorsement, authorization, sponsorship, or affiliation by KWCWC concerning the such site, its owners, or its providers.
