What personal data we collect and why we collect it

We use your Personal Information only for providing and improving the Site. By using the site you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

While using our Site, we may ask you to provide us with certain personally identifiable information that can be used to contact or identify you.

Personally identifiable information means information or an opinion about an individual whose identity is apparent or from which you identity can be reasonably ascertained.

If you do not wish for your information to be used for the reasons mentioned below, please do not provide us the information.

We receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us. For example, when you visit our site, our service attaches a small file called a “cookie” to your computer’s hard drive. This enables us to analyse usage patterns in order to tailor it to your preferences. Most web browsers are set to accept cookies however you can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. Although, if you do not accept cookies, you may be unable to engage with some parts of our Site. Cookies do not personally identify users but rather a user’s browser.

We may collect your personal information, including sensitive information for a number of reasons including:

  • Undertaking direct marketing

  • Market research

  • Building and maintaining business relationships

  • Implementing our communication model

  • Complying with legal requirements.

On occasion, we may conduct contests or competitions that will require the supplying of specific personal information upon entry. In such cases, note that the Privacy Policy may be varied and the changes brought to you attention in the relevant area of the Site.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you have an account and you log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select "Remember Me", your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who we share your data with

The security of your personal information is paramount to us and we will treat such information with care and recognise the need for appropriate protection.

DDD Centre for Recovery will not sell, rent other otherwise disclose personal information for any purpose without consent from the user, unless permitted or required by law.

Personal information may occasionally be disclosed to certain selected organisations and agents to whom we outsource certain functions and procedures. We will not disclose personal information for marketing purposes to anyone other than the specific organisations unless you have indicated otherwise.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment online, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Changes to the Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to change and update this Privacy Policy at any time. We advise that you check this policy periodically. We will post the most current version on our website and notify you of the change if such a revision would meaningfully reduce your rights.
