1. About this policy
PATH Bangladesh is a nonprofit organization working to build a more equitable, inclusive and sustainable society through community-focused initiatives. This Privacy Policy explains how information submitted through the PATH Bangladesh website is handled.
This website may be used to read public information, contact PATH Bangladesh, submit a membership application, and access a member account where applicable.
2. Information you provide
We collect information that you choose to submit through website forms and account features. Depending on the feature you use, this may include:
- name, email address and phone number;
- contact-form subject and message;
- membership-application information such as district, institution, blood group, address, message, and an existing membership-number claim when applicable;
- member-account profile information that you choose to maintain; and
- privacy-consent timestamps associated with forms that require consent.
The current public membership application does not ask applicants to submit an NID number, a password, payment information, or a profile photograph.
3. How information is used
Information submitted through this website is used for the purpose for which it was provided. This includes responding to enquiries, reviewing membership applications, administering approved member accounts, maintaining website security, and operating PATH Bangladesh's public website and internal administration tools.
Submission of a membership application does not itself create or activate a member account. Applications are reviewed before an account may be approved.
4. Website security and technical information
The website uses normal technical measures required to operate a Laravel web application, including sessions, form-security protections and authentication controls. Server and application logs may contain technical information needed to diagnose errors, protect the website, and investigate misuse.
Optional analytics should not be treated as essential website functionality and should only be enabled through an approved configuration and consent mechanism.
5. Sharing and service providers
PATH Bangladesh does not publish personal information submitted through contact forms, membership applications, or member accounts as public website content. Information may be accessible to authorized PATH Bangladesh administrators who need it to review submissions or operate the relevant website function.
Technical service providers used to host, secure, deliver email for, or maintain the website may process limited information as necessary to provide those services.
6. Retention and requests
PATH Bangladesh keeps submitted information only for as long as it is reasonably needed for the relevant operational, administrative, security, or record-keeping purpose. No fixed retention period is stated on this website unless PATH Bangladesh formally adopts one.
You may contact PATH Bangladesh to ask about personal information you submitted, or to request a correction or deletion where appropriate and subject to applicable requirements.
7. Contact
Questions about privacy or information submitted through this website may be sent to info@pathbangladesh.org or through the canonical Contact Us page.
