International Council for Education Research and Training (ICERT) believes that the protection and privacy of your Personal Data and Non-Personal Data (collectively \u201cData\u201d or \u201cYour Data\u201d) are paramount and we value your right to privacy. ICERT strives to protect the Data that we collect through your interaction with the ICERT family of websites, ICERT applications, ICERT social media tools, and other digital and non-digital spaces where ICERT may collect Data, respectively, and collectively ICERT Digital Assets. Data you provide to us through your use of ICERT Digital Assets helps to inform the ICERT about how best to provide you with a fulfilling user experience as it relates to our mission. Our goal is to ensure that Your Data is secure and that ICERT only uses Your Data subject to the terms and conditions set forth below.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>

ICERT is committed to working with you to obtain a fair and rapid resolution of any queries, complaints, or disputes about privacy. If you have any questions or comments about our Privacy Policy, or our information collection and data protection practices, please contact\u00a0secretary@icert.org.in<\/a><\/span>\u00a0or +91 9811077122 from anywhere.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>

We collect Data from all visitors (\u201cUsers\u201d) to ICERT Digital Assets in order to interact with you. The following are examples of the types of Data we collect:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>

1. \u00a0 \u00a0Personal Data
\u201cPersonal Data\u201d is Data that you provide to us, or that we may otherwise collect, that identifies you directly. This also includes information that is associated with you and could potentially identify you, including when combined with other information from or about you. We will not collect or use Personal Data except as stated in this Privacy Policy. Personal Data may include, among other things, name, postal address, telephone number, email address, payment and billing information, subscriptions, or a combination of these and other Data.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>

2. \u00a0 \u00a0Non-Personal Data
\u201cNon-Personal Data\u201d can be technical information or it can be demographic information. Non-Personal Data can be information that is automatically collected through the use of cookies for instance. Non-Personal Data does NOT identify you personally but may be tied together with other data to identify you. Please note that we consider aggregated data, which is not personally identifiable, to be Non-Personal.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>

How we protect your personal data:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>

We maintain reasonable risk-based physical, technical, and administrative safeguards to protect against unauthorized and accidental disclosure, use, alteration, or destruction of personal data in our possession, and to maintain the confidentiality, integrity, availability, and resilience of our systems, data, and services. We restrict access to Personal Data to those individuals and third parties that need to know the information to accomplish the business purposes described in this Privacy Policy. We are committed to taking appropriate measures to enforce compliance with this Privacy Policy. In addition, we comply with applicable laws for protecting Personal Data.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>

We provide reasonable security controls to protect electronic Data that we receive from you against foreseeable hazards, but please note that no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. In addition, the use of email to transmit Data is insecure and violates ICERT policy. Consequently, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us and you understand that any information that you transfer to us is done at your own risk. If we learn of a security system breach we may attempt to notify you electronically so that you can take appropriate protective steps.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>
