Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Refuge In Dhamma collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Refuge In Dhamma’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Refuge In Dhamma’s visitors use its website. From time to time, Refuge In Dhamma may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Refuge In Dhamma also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on https://refugeindhamma.com blog posts. Refuge In Dhamma only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Refuge In Dhamma’s websites choose to interact with Refuge In Dhamma in ways that require Refuge In Dhamma to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Refuge In Dhamma gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for a course at https://refugeindhamma.com to provide an email address and other personal particulars. We are currently using ‘Events Made Easy’ plugin for newsletter subscription and course registrations. By subscribing and registering for our services, visitors have agreed to let us store their personal information and to make use of them for communication purposes.

Events Made Easy (EME) Plugin

EME collects data based on the RSVP (Please Reply) and member forms and optionally extra info in the backend for people. These are configured by Refuge In Dhamma and we only collect information that is necessary for us to identify the people who have signed up (First & Last names and/or country residing in) and to communicate with them (Mobile number and/or email).

The data export will not show the info stored by RSVP forms if that info was unique to that event, however upon deletion all that data will be removed too.

EME optionally uses a cookie to store the client date and time in order to adjust for client/server time differences when showing event dates and times.

Security

The security of your Personal Information is important to us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
