YEHODAYA · יְהוֹדַיָה
Privacy Policy
Yehodaya respects the privacy of visitors to this website and seeks to collect and process only the personal information reasonably necessary for the purposes described below.
Information We Collect
Simply browsing the Yehodaya website does not require you to provide personal information.
Yehodaya may receive personal information when you voluntarily submit it through a form on the website. Depending on the form, this may include:
- your name;
- your email address;
- information you include in a message;
- your country, area of contribution or other details you provide on a volunteer form;
- your request to receive Yehodaya news or updates; and
- technical information associated with the submission, such as the time of submission, IP address observed by our hosting provider, browser user agent, page URL and referrer, where available.
Please do not submit sensitive personal information unless it is genuinely necessary for the purpose of your communication.
How We Use Personal Information
When personal information is received through the website, it may be used to:
- respond to questions, messages or requests;
- manage participation or expressions of interest relating to Yehodaya;
- send Yehodaya news and updates when you have requested or consented to receive them;
- maintain records reasonably necessary for these purposes; and
- protect the website and its services against misuse or security threats.
We do not sell personal information.
We do not use personal information submitted through this website for unrelated advertising or behavioral profiling.
Legal Basis for Processing
Where you contact Yehodaya or request that we respond to you, we process the information necessary to handle that communication and pursue the legitimate purpose for which you contacted us.
Where you explicitly subscribe to future Yehodaya emails or updates, that processing is based on your consent.
You may withdraw consent to receive such communications at any time, including through an unsubscribe mechanism provided in the email or by contacting us.
Withdrawal of consent does not affect processing that lawfully took place before consent was withdrawn.
ActiveTrail
Website forms on Yehodaya are Yehodaya’s own forms. ActiveTrail tracking scripts, widgets, embedded forms or marketing cookies are not loaded on this website.
Yehodaya uses ActiveTrail as a service provider for managing relevant contact information and email communications. When you submit a relevant website form, the information is transferred through Yehodaya’s server-side API integration to ActiveTrail for processing on Yehodaya’s behalf.
Joining the mailing list requires your explicit consent via a checkbox that is unchecked by default. Submitting the volunteer/contact form is not consent to receive marketing or newsletter emails, and does not subscribe you to the mailing list.
ActiveTrail acts as a service provider/data processor in relation to information processed on Yehodaya’s instructions.
ActiveTrail is operated by ActiveTrail Ltd. in Israel.
The European Commission currently recognizes Israel as providing an adequate level of protection for personal data for the purposes of transfers under EU data-protection law.
Spam and Bot Protection
Website forms use Cloudflare Turnstile solely to help prevent automated spam and abuse.
Turnstile runs a challenge in the browser and Yehodaya verifies the result on the server before processing a submission.
Turnstile is not used for advertising or visitor profiling on this website.
Cookies and Tracking
Yehodaya does not use analytics cookies, advertising cookies, tracking pixels, behavioral advertising technology or third-party visitor profiling on this website.
The website does not display a cookie-consent banner for its own operation.
Cloudflare Turnstile, used only for spam protection on forms, may set cookies or similar storage according to Cloudflare’s own technology. Yehodaya does not use that mechanism for advertising or analytics.
If cookie use expands beyond spam protection in a way that requires additional notice or consent under applicable law, this Privacy Policy and the website’s consent mechanisms will be updated before such technology is used.
Language Preference
The website may store your selected Hebrew or English language preference using your browser’s local storage.
This preference is stored locally on your device so that the website can remember your language selection.
It is not sent to Yehodaya merely by being stored, and it is not used for advertising, analytics or tracking.
Server and Technical Information
Like normal internet infrastructure, the website’s hosting and security systems may necessarily process limited technical information required to deliver and protect the website, such as network requests, IP addresses, timestamps and security-related data.
Such technical processing is used for operation, security, abuse prevention and troubleshooting rather than advertising or visitor profiling.
How Long We Keep Personal Information
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including managing communications, participation and mailing subscriptions, and where necessary to meet applicable legal or security requirements.
Mailing-list information may be retained while you remain subscribed.
If you unsubscribe, we may retain the minimum information necessary to record and respect your opt-out request.
Sharing of Personal Information
We may share personal information with service providers where reasonably necessary to operate the website, manage communications or provide the service you requested.
Such providers are permitted to process information only for the relevant service and subject to applicable data-protection requirements.
We may also disclose information where required by applicable law or where reasonably necessary to protect legal rights, security or the integrity of the website.
We do not sell visitor data.
Your Rights
Depending on applicable data-protection law, you may have rights concerning your personal information, including the right to:
- request access to your personal information;
- request correction of inaccurate information;
- request deletion of information in applicable circumstances;
- request restriction of processing;
- object to certain processing;
- withdraw consent where processing is based on consent; and
- receive information about how your personal data is processed.
You may exercise these rights by contacting Yehodaya at:
You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent data-protection authority.
Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.
No internet-based service can guarantee absolute security.
External Links
The website may contain links to websites operated by third parties.
Yehodaya is not responsible for the privacy practices of those external websites. Their own privacy policies apply when you visit them.
Children
The website is intended as a general public information website and is not specifically designed to collect personal information from children.
If we become aware that personal information relating to a child has been submitted in circumstances requiring deletion or other action under applicable law, we will take appropriate steps.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated if the website, its services or applicable privacy requirements change.
The current version published on this website will apply.
