Website Visitors

​

In accordance with the Personal Data Protection Act 2012 of Singapore (“PDPA”), DP collects certain information from visitors to its website.

​

Like most website operators, DP automatically collects non-personally identifiable information that web browsers and servers typically make available. This may include information such as browser type, language preference, referring website, and the date and time of each visitor request. This information does not identify individuals and is collected to help DP understand how visitors use its website and to improve user experience. From time to time, DP may publish aggregated, non-personal data (for example, reports on website usage trends), which does not identify any individual.

​

In addition, DP may collect potentially personally identifiable information, such as Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, for users who are logged in and for those who leave comments on www.derpoet.org blogs or sites. Where such data constitutes personally identifiable information under the PDPA, DP only uses and discloses this information under the same conditions outlined for personally identifiable information below. However, IP addresses and email addresses associated with comments may be visible to and accessed by administrators of the relevant blog or site where the comment was submitted, for moderation and administrative purposes.

​

Gathering of Personally Identifiable Information

​

Some visitors to DP’s websites choose to interact with DP in ways that require the collection of personally identifiable information. The type and amount of information collected depend on the nature of the interaction. For instance, visitors who sign up or enquire about a purchase or donation at www.derpoet.org are asked to provide details such as their email address and contact information. Those who carries out transactions with DP may be required to provide additional details, including personal and financial information needed to process those transactions. In all cases, DP collects only the information necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction. DP does not share personally identifiable information except as outlined below. Visitors may choose not to provide such information, although this may limit their ability to participate in certain website-related activities.

​

Aggregated Statistics

​

DP may gather statistical data on how visitors use its websites. This information may be shared publicly or with third parties. However, DP does not reveal any personally identifiable information except as outlined below.

​

Protection of Certain Personally Identifiable Information

​

DP shares potentially personally identifiable and personally identifiable information only with its employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations who (i) need access to the information to process it on DP’s behalf or to provide services through DP’s websites, and (ii) have agreed to keep it confidential. Some of these parties may be located outside a visitor’s home country; by using DP’s websites, visitors consent to the transfer of their information to such parties.

​

DP does not rent or sell potentially personally identifiable or personally identifiable information. Aside from the parties mentioned above, DP discloses such information only when required to do so by law (such as in response to a subpoena, court order, or government request), or when it believes in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of DP, third parties, or the public.

​

If you are a registered user and have provided your email address, DP may occasionally contact you to share updates about new features, request feedback, or keep you informed about DP’s services and products. If you submit a request (for example, via email or feedback forms), DP reserves the right to publish it to help us clarify, address your inquiry, or assist other users. 

​

DP takes reasonable measures to safeguard potentially personally identifiable and personally identifiable information from unauthorized access, use, modification, or destruction.

​

Cookies

​

A cookie is a small piece of data that a website stores on a visitor’s computer, which the visitor’s browser sends back to the website each time the visitor returns. DP uses cookies to recognize and track visitors, understand how they use the website, and remember their preferences. Visitors who prefer not to have cookies stored on their devices can adjust their browser settings to block them before using DP’s websites, though some features of the sites may not work properly without cookies.

​

Business Transfer

​

In the context of a non-profit organization, if DP undergoes a restructuring, merger, or transfer of its operations or assets to another organization, or in the unlikely event that it ceases operations or enters insolvency, user information may be included among the transferred assets. By engaging with DP, you acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that the receiving organization may continue to use your personal information in accordance with this policy.

​

Ads

​

Advertisements displayed on DP’s websites may be provided by third-party advertising partners, who may place cookies on users’ devices. These cookies enable the advertising server to recognize a device each time an advertisement is served and to gather information about the device’s usage. This information may be used to help advertising networks deliver ads that are more relevant to users’ interests.

​

This Privacy Policy governs the use of cookies by DP only and does not apply to cookies used by third-party advertisers.

​

Privacy Policy Changes

​

Although most changes are expected to be minor, DP may update its Privacy Policy from time to time at its sole discretion. DP encourages visitors to review this page regularly to stay informed of any updates. If you have a www.derpoet.org account, you may also receive a notification about such changes. By continuing to use the site after any updates to this Privacy Policy, you are deemed to have accepted the revised terms.
