Effective Date: March 23, 2023

The John Paul Lederach Archive is committed to protecting the privacy and security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”) describes how we may collect, use, disclose, and retain your personal information when you visit this site.

By using The John Paul Lederach Archive, you signify your acceptance of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not use this site. Your continued use of the John Paul Lederach Archive following the posting of changes to this Privacy Policy will mean that you accept those changes.

Personal Information We Collect

The John Paul Lederach Archive uses Google Analytics to track behavior and collect your personally identifiable information (“PII”) through the site when you choose to provide such information, such as when you (i) access various content or features, (ii) or directly contact us with questions or feedback. 

Use of Personal Information

We will use your PII only (i) to operate and enhance the website; (ii) to perform research and analyses, or for other internal purposes to improve the quality of our work; or (iii) as otherwise described to you at the point of collection or pursuant to your consent. 

Automatically Collected Information and Anonymous Information

Each time you visit The John Paul Lederach Archive, the site collects some information to improve the overall quality of your online experience.

Cookies

Cookies are pieces of information that a website transfers to a user’s computer for purposes of storing information about a user’s preferences. Cookies in and of themselves do not personally identify users, although they do identify a user’s computer. Many websites use cookies as a standard practice to provide useful features when a user visits the website and most web browsers are set up to accept cookies. The John Paul Lederach Archive uses cookies to improve your online experience when visiting the site. You can set your browser to refuse or delete cookies, but some portions of the site may not work properly if you refuse cookies. 

Response to “Do Not Track” Signals

Some web browsers may transmit “do-not-track” signals to the websites with which the user communicates, although web browsers incorporate and activate this functionality in different ways, and it is not always clear whether users intend for these signals to be transmitted. There currently is disagreement, including among participants in the leading Internet standards-setting organization, concerning what, if anything, websites should do when they receive such signals. The John Paul Lederach Archive currently does not take action in response to these signals, and is conditional to the use of Google Analytics.

You have the right to request that your PII be removed from our database, changed or updated, and can do so by contacting us at connect@johnpaullederach.com

The John Paul Lederach Archive is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of those websites.

This Privacy Policy applies solely to information collected by The John Paul Lederach Archive.

Website Visitors from Outside the United States

The John Paul Lederach Archive and its server is located in the United States and are subject to the applicable laws of the United States (where data privacy laws are less stringent than in the European Union and some other jurisdictions).

This Privacy Policy may be revised from time to time as we add new features and services, as laws change, and as industry privacy and security best practices evolve.
