Privacy Policy

This privacy policy explains what information we collect from visitors to the Site, how we use it, and your choices regarding it. This policy applies only to reproductivehealthdata.org and does not extend to any third-party sites, partner websites, or AI systems that link to or reuse content from this Site.

This Privacy Policy incorporates our Terms of Use, which govern your use of the Site.

Please note that we are providing the following disclosures and rights in this Privacy Policy in the interest of transparency. Such disclosures and rights are not intended to waive any applicable exemptions under state and federal law.

Information We Collect

When you visit this Site, our web analytics collect your IP address and, based on that IP address, a general geolocated country. We do not collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, health information, or any other personally identifiable information. We do not use cookies, browser storage, or tracking pixels, and we do not track visitors across other websites.

Web Analytics

We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to understand aggregate traffic to this website, such as page views, referring sites, and general visitor trends. Cloudflare Web Analytics is a privacy-focused service that is designed to operate without cookies or any client-side storage, does not track visitors across sites, and does not collect personally identifiable information. For more information, see Cloudflare's Privacy Policy at cloudflare.com/privacypolicy.

How We Use This Information

Cloudflare Web Analytics collects IP addresses and country-level location data solely to understand aggregate visitor trends, maintain the security and performance of the Site, and detect and prevent misuse. We do not use this information to identify individual visitors, build user profiles, or serve targeted advertising.

Privacy & Sharing of Information

We do not sell IP addresses or geolocation data. We may share this limited information with service providers who help operate and secure the Site (such as hosting or analytics providers), or disclose it if required to comply with a legal obligation, subpoena, or law enforcement request.

We use third-party vendors to perform operational functions related to the Site. Some of these vendors (e.g., hosting providers) may have access to your personal information, but only as necessary to provide services to us. If the third-party vendor is our service provider, we have agreements in place with the vendors requiring your information to be kept confidential and reasonable data security measures used to protect it. We also share your personal information with vendors (for example, hosting providers) as needed to assist us with business operations, but in such instances, these vendors are contractually required to keep your information confidential.

Subject to applicable law, we reserve the right to transfer some or all personal information in our possession to a successor organization in the event of a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy, or other sale or transfer of all or a portion of our assets. If any such transaction occurs, the purchaser will be entitled to use and disclose the personal information collected by us in the same manner that we are able to, and the purchaser will assume the rights and obligations regarding personal information as described in this privacy statement.

Data Retention

We retain aggregate traffic data only as long as needed to support the purposes above and do not retain this information in a form that links it to a specific visitor. We do not maintain server logs that store visitor IP addresses, and our analytics do not retain IP addresses.

Our hosting provider, Cloudflare, processes IP addresses temporarily to deliver and secure the site in accordance with its privacy policy; we do not receive or store this data in a form that is individually identifiable.

Children's Privacy

This Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from children under 13.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.

Privacy Notice for Residents of Nevada

We do not "sell" personal data as that term is defined under Nevada law.

Privacy Notice for Residents of Other States

This section contains additional information for residents of Colorado, Delaware, Maryland, Minnesota, New Jersey, and Oregon about our personal data practices and provides information regarding your privacy rights. The provisions contained within this section, in addition to the disclosures throughout the rest of this Privacy Policy, are intended to provide notices in compliance with the Colorado Privacy Act, the Delaware Personal Data Privacy Act, the Maryland Online Data Privacy Act, the Minnesota Consumer Data Privacy Act, the New Jersey Privacy Act, and the Oregon Consumer Data Privacy Act (collectively, the "State Privacy Laws").

a. Our personal data practices

The State Privacy Laws provide rights to residents of those states to receive certain disclosures and access regarding the collection, use, sale, and sharing of personal data. Information about what kinds of personal data we may collect or have collected, how we collect it, why we collect it, and to whom we may disclose it can be found in this Privacy Policy.

b. Your privacy rights

If you are a resident of Colorado, Delaware, Maryland, Minnesota, New Jersey, or Oregon, you have the following rights under applicable law in relation to your personal data, subject to certain exceptions:

• Right to know and access. You have the right to know what personal data we collect, use, disclose, and/or sell or share as those terms are defined under applicable law. You may ask us to provide you with a portable copy of this information. Residents of Delaware, Maryland, and Minnesota have the right to obtain a list of specific third parties to which we have disclosed personal data.
• Right to delete and erase. You have the right to request under certain circumstances that we, as well as our service providers and contractors, delete the personal data that we collect about you.

You can exercise the rights described in this Privacy Policy by emailing us at [email protected].

If you submit a request, we will tell you the result of your request without undue delay and within 45 days after receiving your request. In some cases, we may extend that deadline by 45 days to 90 days in total. If we extend the deadline, we will tell you that and why.

There is no cost for submitting your first request; if you submit multiple requests in twelve months, we may charge you a fee for answering your request. We are permitted to use commercially reasonable efforts to authenticate who you say you are, and if you are submitting the request on behalf of another, you have the authority to do so. So, we may need to ask you for more information in light of the rights exercised, the type, sensitivity, value, or volume of personal data, the level of possible harm if we improperly grant the request, and the cost to us. We will deny the request if we cannot authenticate you or your authority.
