Who we share your data with

Amandla Development does occasionally share your name and address with affiliated organizations with whom Amandla Development has a common interest. Amandla Development employs persons and entities to perform functions on our behalf, such as fulfilling merchandise orders, sending mail and email, processing credit card payments or helping with the maintenance or set up of our servers or computers. Such persons or entities have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use such information for any other purposes. Amandla Development does not otherwise sell, share or disclose personal information with persons or entities not affiliated with or employed by Amandla Development except with your consent or when we reasonably determine it is necessary to do so in order to comply with the law or protect the safety, property or legal rights of Amandla Development or others. Amandla Development has contractual arrangements with certain partners to provide information and services through the Sites. Each of these partners may set and access “cookies” on your computer through the Sites. The use of such “cookies” by each of these partners is subject to their own privacy policy, not the privacy policy of Amandla Development. We believe these partners share a similar commitment to privacy and urge you to review their privacy policies when visiting their sites. However, we cannot be responsible for their privacy policies. Participation in certain programs available on the Sites means that information you provide may be distributed or released publicly. Your participation in these programs is voluntary. When you create a profile or register with the Sites, you become a registered user with password access and we use your Profile Information to verify your identity, create your user account, and help us to offer you more personalized features, improve our Sites, and provide you with information that is of the most interest to you. Such Profile Information is also compiled and analyzed on an aggregated basis that does not reveal your personal identity (“Aggregated Data”). We may share this Aggregated Data with business partners, content providers or other third parties to advance goals of research, education, dissemination of information, and the provision of services and support for the treatment of cancer patients. In addition, you may from time to time be provided with or given the opportunity to obtain additional information of interest, updates, surveys, bulletins or other communications from Amandla Development or its partners (“Communications”) via e-mail. You may select to opt out of future Communications by following the opt-out provision below.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize 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.

Where we send your data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
