1. Information you choose to provide
When you use a contact, participation, grievance or safeguarding form, the website may collect your name, email address, optional phone number and organisation, the category of your submission, your message and your privacy consent.
Please do not provide sensitive information that is not necessary for the purpose of your submission.
2. Technical and security information
The website and its hosting or security services may process limited technical information such as the time of a request, browser or device data, referring page and network information. This may be used to deliver the service, detect misuse, rate-limit submissions and investigate security events.
3. Why information is used
Information may be used to review and respond to an enquiry; assess an expression of interest; triage and handle a grievance or safeguarding concern; maintain proportionate records; protect the website and its users; and meet applicable legal or safeguarding responsibilities.
4. Access and sharing
Access should be limited according to purpose. Formal or sensitive submissions should be available only to people responsible for triage, review, oversight or technical administration.
Information may be disclosed where reasonably necessary to protect someone, respond to a lawful requirement, obtain appropriate professional support or operate the website through a vetted service provider. The Yuva Project does not present personal information as being sold for advertising.
5. Retention and deletion
Information should be kept only for as long as reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose, record, safeguarding, dispute, security or legal requirement. Retention periods will be formalised as organisational systems and obligations are confirmed. Data that no longer needs to be retained should be securely deleted or anonymised.
6. Your choices and requests
Depending on the context and applicable law, you may ask what personal information is held about you, request correction or deletion, withdraw consent where consent is the relevant basis, or object to particular use. Some requests may be limited by safeguarding, record-keeping, legal or third-party rights.
7. Cookies and analytics
This public website is not designed to use advertising trackers. If privacy-respecting analytics or optional cookies are introduced, this notice and any required consent controls should be updated before use. Essential infrastructure may use technical storage where necessary for security or service operation.
8. Children and safeguarding
This website is not intended to collect unnecessary personal information from children. A child or young person with a safety concern should seek help from a trusted adult or appropriate local service where safe to do so. Safeguarding information may need to be shared to protect someone.
9. Questions or requests
Use the contact form and clearly state that your enquiry concerns privacy. For a complaint about handling, you may also use the grievance route.
10. Changes to this notice
This notice may change as The Yuva Project’s legal status, systems, services and contact details are formalised. The review date above will be updated when a material revision is published.
