Privacy Notice

Effective Date: 29 May 2020

This Privacy Notice explains what information The Noon Project (“we,” “us” or “our”) collects when you, personally or on behalf of an entity (“you”), use our site, thenoonproject.com, as well as any other media form, media channel, social media channel, mobile website or mobile application related, linked, or otherwise connected thereto (collectively, the “Website”). This notice will try to make it easier for you to understand what we might collect, why and how we may use it.

Communication Policy

If you provide us with personal information, such as your name, email address, or other identifiable information, through our contact form, surveys, feedback forms and the like, we shall consider such information confidential, and will take all reasonable efforts to maintain the confidentiality of this information. We will not sell your email or other personal information to any third parties, and we will only use your email for direct communication with you, unless you consent otherwise.

We will use your email address and the content of any email for correspondence and visitor response purposes. Any non-personal information you provide to us by email, including, but not limited to, feedback, data, answers, questions, comments, suggestions, plans, ideas or the like, shall be deemed to be non-confidential, and we assume no obligation to protect such non-personal information contained in the email from disclosure.

Third party embeds

Some of the content that you see displayed on our Website is not hosted by us, these “embeds” are hosted by a third party and embedded in our Website so that it appears to be part of our Website. For example; YouTube videos, Twitter tweets, Power BI dashboards, GitHub code snippets and so forth. These files may send data to the hosted site just as if you are visiting that site directly.

We do not control what data third parties collect in cases such as these, or what they may ultimately do with it. Thus third party embeds on our Website are not covered by this Privacy Notice, and they are covered by the privacy policies of the third party service. Make sure you understand who the third party is (such information is usually provided somewhere within the embed, or will be noted on the page) and familiarise yourself with their policies, and do not submit any personal information, such as email, on such third party embeds, if you are not willing to accept and abide by their privacy practices.
