2. How We Use Your Information

To improve the functionality and content of our website based on how it is used.

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

3. How We Store and Protect Your Data

Your personal information is stored securely using Supabase, a cloud database platform built on PostgreSQL and hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS). All data is encrypted in transit using Transport Layer Security (TLS) and encrypted at rest.

Access to personal data is restricted to authorised Inspiring Futures staff and is protected by role-based access controls. We review and update our security practices regularly to protect against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction of your information.

While we take reasonable steps to protect your data, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

4. Cookies

We do not use tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or third-party analytics cookies. We do not use Google Analytics or similar tracking services.

Because we only use session-essential cookies, no cookie consent banner is required under current applicable standards. You may configure your browser to refuse cookies; however, this may affect the functionality of the CMS for authorised administrators.
