Cookies

We use cookies, which are small amounts of data stored on your computer and used to track certain parts of your interaction with our website, to customize and improve your experience. Cookies are also set and accessed by third-party data processors, including Google Analytics.

It does, however, allow us to analyze usage patterns to determine what information our visitors need, and lets us provide the best possible experience.

Newsletters

Our website contains links to subscription forms that allow you to sign up for news and newsletters from the WIEGO Network. We use a third-party data processor, MailChimp, to manage our mailings. Please see their legal and privacy policies and practices here.

If you choose to subscribe to a WIEGO newsletter or newsfeed, we require a valid email address, first and last name, and your preferred language. You may choose to provide other information (such as your location and professional affiliation) but it is not required.

This information is retained by both WIEGO and the external mailing service and will remain within WIEGO’s and the third party’s databases for as long as we continue to use those services for email marketing, or until you request to be removed from the newsletter. You may cancel your subscription at any time by clicking the “unsubscribe” link contained in every email newsletter we send.
