  1. WHO WE ARE
    JD Network is a working network that connects public communication, community advocacy, institutional linkage, process statistical analysis, and human-centered digital solutions to strengthen social, migrant, editorial, and independent initiatives. Our work often involves organizing information (documents, testimonies, timelines, notes, reports, and lived experience), identifying gaps or inconsistencies, and structuring it so it can be communicated clearly to allies, institutions, communities, or audiences. This Privacy Policy applies to the Site and communications initiated through the Site.
  2. NOTICE AT COLLECTION (CALIFORNIA)
    At or before the point of collection, we may collect the categories of personal information described in Section 3 below for the purposes described in Section 4. We do not sell personal information and we do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising as those terms are defined under the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the CPRA (“CCPA/CPRA”).
  3. INFORMATION WE COLLECT
    We may collect the following categories of information:

A) Information you provide directly

  • Identifiers and contact information (such as name, email address, phone number) when you contact us.

  • Pages viewed and referring/exit pages
  • Date/time of visits and basic usage analytics

C) Sensitive information
Please do not submit sensitive personal data through the Site unless it is strictly necessary and you are comfortable doing so. Sensitive data may include government identification numbers, financial account information, medical information, or highly confidential case details.

  1. SHARING AND DISCLOSURE
    We do not sell personal information. We may share information only as follows:

B) Legal requirements
We may disclose information if required by law, subpoena, court order, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect rights, safety, or prevent fraud/abuse.

C) Business transitions
If the Site or operations are reorganized, transferred, or merged, information may be transferred as part of that process, subject to this Privacy Policy.

  1. COOKIES AND ANALYTICS
    The Site may use cookies or similar technologies to function properly and to understand usage patterns. If analytics tools are enabled (e.g., Google Analytics via Site Kit), they may collect usage data. You can control cookies through your browser settings and may be able to opt out of certain analytics tracking depending on the tool used.
  2. DATA RETENTION
    We retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including responding to inquiries, maintaining records, security, and legal compliance. Message content may be retained for continuity of communication and operational reference, but we aim to avoid retaining unnecessary sensitive information.
  3. SECURITY
    We take reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect personal information. However, no website or transmission method is 100% secure. You use the Site and submit information at your own risk. If you need a secure channel for sensitive matters, request one before sending details.
