Privacy Policy
How Digital Green collects, uses, and protects the personal information of the people we work with.
Digital Green is committed to protecting the privacy of the people we work with. This policy explains what Personal Information we collect, how we use and share it, and the choices you have. “Personal Information” means information that identifies an individual or relates to an identifiable individual.
Collection of Personal Information
We collect Personal Information through our websites, apps, social media, emails, and offline interactions. The categories we collect include name and contact details, identity and demographic information, organization details, content you provide, preferences, marketing data, relationship history, event participation, photographs and videos, recordings, location data, and IP addresses.
Collecting IP addresses is standard practice and is done automatically by many websites, applications, and other services. We also collect information through your use of our services, including social media profile data, event photos and videos, CCTV footage where applicable, and device information gathered via cookies and similar technologies.
How We Use Personal Information
We use Personal Information to provide and operate our services, facilitate trainings and events, send marketing communications, build and maintain relationships, personalize and improve our products, and aggregate or anonymize data for analysis.
We also process Personal Information to prevent fraud and misuse, meet our legal obligations, and respond to emergencies.
Disclosure of Personal Information
We may share Personal Information with other Digital Green entities, implementation partners, hosting and IT service providers, email delivery services, advertising networks, analytics and survey providers, and subject-matter experts. We may also disclose information to law enforcement, emergency services, auditors, and professional advisors where appropriate or required.
Any information you post or disclose in public areas of our services may become public and may be available to other users and the general public.
Cookies and Other Information
We automatically collect non-identifying information through cookies, pixel tags, and analytics services (including Google Analytics), as well as invisible reCAPTCHA and location tracking. You can set your browser to refuse cookies, though some features of our services may not function properly as a result.
Security
We take reasonable measures to protect Personal Information. However, no data transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee the security of information you transmit to us.
Your Choices and Access
You may opt out of marketing emails at any time using the unsubscribe link in those messages, or by contacting us. Subject to applicable law, you may also request access to, correction of, deletion of, or portability of your Personal Information.
Retention
We retain Personal Information for as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy or as required by law. Retention periods are based on the length of our relationship with you, our legal obligations, and any litigation considerations.
Third-Party Services
Our services may link to or integrate with third-party websites and services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties, and we encourage you to review their policies.
Minors
Our services are not directed to individuals under the age of eighteen (18), and we do not knowingly collect Personal Information from minors.
Cross-Border Transfer
Your Personal Information may be transferred to, and processed in, countries other than the one in which you reside. Those countries may have data protection standards that differ from those in your country.
Sensitive Information
We ask that you do not send us, and that you do not disclose, any sensitive Personal Information (such as government identification numbers or information related to health) except where we specifically request it.
