Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy covers what the Global Network for Public Health (“GNAPH”) collects and how we use, disclose, transfer, and store your information.
What are cookies, and what does this policy cover?
- Cookies are small text files stored on web browsers to store and receive identifiers and other information on devices. This policy refers to all such technologies as “cookies.”
- GNAPH uses cookies when you have a GNAPH account or use GNAPH digital products and services, including our website and apps. Cookies help GNAPH deliver products and understand the information we receive about you, including your use of other websites and apps, whether or not you have an account or are logged in.
- This policy explains our use of cookies and your choices. The Privacy Policy also applies to the data collected via cookies, except where stated otherwise.
Why does GNAPH use cookies?
Cookies help us provide, protect, and improve the GNAPH Products by personalizing content, tracking user behavior, and enhancing security. We use session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, and persistent cookies, which remain until they expire or are deleted. Our use of cookies may evolve as we update GNAPH Products. Generally, we use cookies for:
Authentication
To verify your account and determine when you’re logged in, making it easier to access GNAPH Products and features.
Security, Site & Product Integrity
To keep your account, data, and GNAPH Products safe.
Example: Identifying unauthorized access attempts, storing information for account recovery, and using cookies like “sb,” “dbln,” and “datr” to securely identify your browser and protect against fraud. “Datr” helps identify trusted browsers and has a lifespan of 400 days.
Advertising, Recommendations, Insights And Measurement
We use cookies to display ads on search engines and make recommendations for other organizations. Cookies help us:
- Deliver ads to people who have previously visited an organization’s website.
- Recommend other relevant websites.
- Limit the number of times you see the same ad.
Example: The “fr” cookie delivers, measures, and improves ad relevancy (90-day lifespan).
We also use cookies to measure ad campaign performance.
Example: The “_fbp” cookie identifies browsers for advertising and site analytics (90-day lifespan).
Cookies help serve and measure ads across different browsers and devices used by the same person.
Example: Preventing repetitive ads across your devices. We use cookies, like the “oo” cookie (400-day lifespan).
