Privacy depends on understanding a particular activity, not only a broad promise. WHML.ORG’s published policy covers service delivery, communication, personalization, performance and security. This page adapts that framework to the redesigned site and points to the choices available now. The organization remains responsible for confirming its formal processing grounds, retention arrangements and applicable privacy obligations.
Overview
Welcome to the privacy policy section of WHML.ORG! Understand our commitment to protecting your personal information and privacy. The World Health, Medical and Life Sciences Organization (WHML.ORG) operates as an international non-governmental organization in the fields of health, medical and life sciences. Founded in 2000 by professors, academics, scientists, and health professionals, the organization operates in 9 different regions globally (Europe, Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Oceania, the Caribbean, North America, Central America, and South America). WHML.ORG, headquartered in the Netherlands, is a genuine and active organization registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce (KVK). Our privacy policy has been created to protect the privacy rights and data security of users visiting our website.
About the privacy policy
This policy explains WHML.ORG’s approach to collecting, using and protecting personal information connected with its website. It brings together the purposes of processing, security responsibilities, possible disclosures and user requests. The descriptions below distinguish the organization’s policy scope from the functions actually available in the current preview.
Collected information and usage
Information collected on the WHML.ORG website is used to improve the user experience, enhance our services, and communicate effectively with users. The collected information can be categorized as follows:
Personal Information
WHML.ORG may collect personal information such as name, surname, email address, and phone number. This information is used to contact users, inform them about events, and complete membership processes.
Demographic Information
The source includes age, gender and interests among information categories that may be relevant to personalization. This does not mean every category is collected by every form; the requested fields and their purpose should be identified for the service concerned.
Technical Information
The source lists connection addresses, browser type, operating system and page usage as possible technical information. The current account service records sign-in activity, including time, account identifier, connection address and success or failure, for administration and security. A general category list does not imply that every listed item is collected here.
Cookies and Browser Storage
Session cookies support account access. Browser storage also remembers supported preferences and an unfinished giving selection. The Cookie Policy explains these functions separately from the analytical and advertising categories described by the original website.
Purposes of data use and processing
Data collected by WHML.ORG may be used for the following purposes:
Service Provision
Providing the services requested by users through the website and completing membership processes.
Communication
Information can support replies, event information and announcements relevant to the chosen relationship. Newsletter preferences are separate from account registration. The current preview records the preference and consent; it does not itself send a newsletter campaign.
Personalization
Personalizing the user experience and providing content suited to users’ interests.
Performance Analysis
Analyzing the performance of the website, identifying errors, and improving the user experience.
Security
Protecting users’ information and preventing unauthorized access.
Data security
Security responsibilities address unauthorized access, loss, alteration and disclosure. The current service uses authenticated sessions, protected actions and administrative permissions; these controls do not amount to a guarantee that all risks are eliminated. Questions about specific measures, review records or independent assurance should be answered from the organization’s current security documentation.
Sharing of personal data
WHML.ORG’s source policy limits disclosure of personal information and identifies the following exceptions: applicable legal obligations and service providers acting on the organization’s behalf. These exceptions qualify the source’s general statement about not sharing data; they should be considered together rather than as contradictory promises.
Legal Obligations
WHML.ORG may transmit user information to authorities in accordance with legal obligations.
Service Providers
WHML.ORG may collaborate with third-party service providers to provide its services. In such cases, service providers act on behalf of WHML.ORG and are required to comply with the same standards of privacy and data security.
User rights
Users have various rights over the personal data registered on the WHML.ORG website. These rights include:
Right of Access

Right to Rectification
Users can request the correction of incorrect or incomplete personal data.

Data Portability
Users can request the transfer of their personal data to another data controller. Users wishing to exercise any of these rights can contact WHML.ORG. User requests are evaluated in accordance with legal requirements and internal policies and will be responded to as soon as possible.
Changes to the privacy policy
WHML.ORG may update its privacy policy from time to time. Changes to our privacy policy will take effect once published on our website. Users are advised to regularly review our privacy policy. We will post announcements on our website to inform users about changes to the policy. In this way, we can provide users with the most up-to-date information and policies. Through its privacy policy, WHML.ORG aims to offer users a better and safer experience.
