​

At the Anthropoi Initiative, we are committed to respecting and protecting the privacy of everyone who interacts with our website and participates in our projects. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard personal information, particularly regarding the stories shared as part of our initiative.

​

1. Information We Collect

  • Stories & Contributions: When individuals share stories, answers, or reflections for the Anthropoi Initiative, we may collect the text of the story, the contributor’s first name or pseudonym, city, country, and optional demographic information (e.g., age range).

  • Website Data: We may collect technical information automatically when you visit our website, including your IP address, browser type, pages visited, and duration of visit.

​

2. Use of Information

  • The stories collected are used to create and display the Anthropoi Initiative collection, exhibitions, publications, and digital archives.

  • We may use demographic and location information in aggregated form for research, outreach, or reporting purposes.

  • Website analytics data is used solely to improve user experience and website performance.

3. Anonymity & Consent

  • Contributors are not required to provide full names or personal identifiers. All stories are stored and displayed in ways that protect anonymity unless explicit consent is given to publish identifiable information.

  • By submitting a story, contributors confirm they consent to its inclusion in the initiative’s archives, website, and publications, under the conditions described in this Privacy Policy.

  • Contributors have the right to request removal or anonymization of their story at any time by contacting us at the email below.

​

4. Data Sharing & Third Parties

  • We do not sell or rent personal information or stories.

  • In some cases, stories may be shared with partner institutions, researchers, or collaborators for archival, educational, or cultural purposes—but always with anonymity maintained unless explicit permission is given.

  • Third-party services (e.g., hosting providers, analytics) may have limited access to website data as required for operational purposes.

​

5. Data Security

  • We implement administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect collected information against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse.

  • While we strive to protect personal data, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.

​

6. Your Rights

  • Contributors can request access to, correction of, or deletion of their submitted stories.

  • Visitors may opt out of tracking cookies or analytics as per standard browser settings.
