This privacy policy explains what information we collect from and about you, how we use and share that information, and what choices you have with that information. This policy applies to all information that we have about you, and to all of the services provided by us, including our website at www.waihonapedia.org (collectively, our “Services”). Please take the time to familiarize yourself with our policies, and if you have any questions please contact us at wiki@waihonapedia.org.

Information Collection

Registration

In order to create a profile on our Services or submit contributions, you must first complete the registration form and create a user name and password. During your registration, you also provide information, such as your name, email address and gender (just to be able to send you nice personalized alerts). To provide the right set of services we will directly after your registration ask for additional information. This information is used to "approve" your registration and to see if you are a (family-member/caretaker of a) patient or if you are are a volunteer professional motivated to help.

If you sign up to receive newsletters or other communications from us or otherwise contact us, you may provide your name, email address, role or position, country, and information about your interests.

If you decide to register through or otherwise grant access to a third party social networking or authentication service that we may make available (“Authentication Service”), such as Facebook, LinkedIn or Google, we will collect certain personal information that you have provided to the Authentication Service (such as your name, email address, and other information you make available via the Authentication Service) and an authentication token from the Authentication Service. The personal information collected from the Authentication Service will be used to register you on our Services and to provide some of the features of our Services. 

You may revoke our access to your account on the Authentication Service at any time by updating the appropriate settings in the account preferences of the respective Authentication Service.
