This page is a draft, written to give visitors a reasonable starting point while a qualified lawyer reviews and finalizes it for HER Initiative's specific operations. It has not yet received legal review — please treat it as provisional.

1. Information we collect

We collect information you choose to share with us directly, such as through the Join HER, Volunteer, Partner With HER, Support Our Mission, and Contact forms on this site. This may include your name, email address, phone number (where provided), organization name, and any message or details you include.

We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal health information about you through these forms — please do not include personal medical details when contacting us.

2. How we use your information

• To respond to enquiries, applications, and requests you submit.
• To keep you updated about HER Initiative's programmes, events, and community, where you've asked to receive updates.
• To coordinate volunteer opportunities, partnerships, and support you've expressed interest in.
• To maintain accounts for admins and members who use the HER Initiative dashboard.

We do not sell your information to third parties.

3. Cookies and accounts

The admin and member areas of this site use a session cookie to keep you signed in. This cookie is necessary for those features to work and does not track you across other websites.

4. How we store and protect information

Information you submit is stored in a secured database. Account passwords are never stored in readable form — they are protected using industry-standard one-way hashing, meaning even HER Initiative cannot view your original password.

5. Sharing with third parties

We may use third-party services (such as email delivery providers) solely to operate this website and respond to your submissions. We do not share your information with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

6. Your rights

You may ask us to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you at any time by contacting us using the details below.

7. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The version on this page always reflects our current practice.
