Your Privacy
Your voice and trust is vital to the Project. We appreciate that you are sharing a part of yourself with your contributions. That’s why we place a great emphasis on giving you the ability to control, manage and edit your content as and when you choose.
From the content that is submitted to the site, we may in future want to create short films or other media that we can share. We will only use content that is live on the site at the time of production. If you’ve removed your public content by then, we won’t and can’t use it.
We will never pass your private information (specifically your contact details) to an independent third party. Any additional information you have provided (such as education level and whether you have children or not) may be used anonymously and only in order to improve our understanding of perception around the world. This work – whether it is in the form of case studies, research papers or films – will always be led by the What I See Project.
Below is our formal privacy policy that goes into the detail. If you have any questions at all about it or managing your account, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
Thanks,
The What I See Project Team
