Information from advertising and social platforms

If you interact with TDC ads or lead forms on platforms such as LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, or Meta products, we may receive the information you choose to submit through those platforms. The platform may pre-fill some fields from your profile before you submit the form. We receive the information only after you choose to submit it to us.

Your use of those platforms is also governed by their own privacy policies and settings.

3. How We Use Information

We use personal data for the following purposes:

  • to operate and secure our website;
  • to respond to questions, requests, or partnership inquiries;
  • to provide newsletters, publication updates, event invitations, and other TDC communications;
  • to register or manage participation in events, briefings, webinars, or similar activities;
  • to deliver requested reports, papers, or event information;
  • to understand website performance and improve our content;
  • to measure whether advertising campaigns and newsletter signup flows are working;
  • to prevent abuse, spam, fraud, or security incidents;
  • to comply with legal obligations and enforce our rights.

Where required by applicable law, we rely on consent for newsletter subscriptions, non-essential cookies, advertising cookies, lead-form marketing follow-up, and similar processing. In other cases, we may rely on legitimate interests, performance of a request, or legal obligations, depending on the context.

4. Newsletters and MailerLite

We use MailerLite and related website code to provide newsletter signup forms and manage email subscriptions.

When you subscribe, MailerLite may process your email address and related signup information on our behalf. MailerLite may also use cookies or similar technologies to display or manage signup forms.

You can unsubscribe from newsletter emails using the unsubscribe link in the email or by contacting info@tdcenter.org.

5. Analytics, Advertising, and Conversion Measurement

We use Google tools, including Google tags, Google Analytics, Google Ads conversion tags, and Google Site Kit, to understand website use and measure campaign performance.

These tools may use cookies or similar identifiers to collect information about website visits and interactions, such as page views, campaign source, browser and device information, and conversion events. We use this information to understand audience interest, improve website content, and measure whether campaigns lead to actions such as newsletter signup or event interest.

If Google Analytics Advertising Features or similar advertising features are enabled, Google and TDC may use first-party and third-party cookies or identifiers together for measurement, attribution, remarketing, demographics, interest reporting, or related advertising functionality, subject to applicable consent and platform settings.

You can manage or opt out through:

6. Social Advertising and Lead Forms

We may run campaigns through LinkedIn, Meta, Facebook, Instagram, or similar platforms.

When you submit a lead form connected to a TDC campaign, we may use the submitted information to:

  • send the requested event, publication, report, or briefing information;
  • respond to your inquiry;
  • register your interest in an event or program;
  • send TDC updates or invitations if you consent or where otherwise permitted;
  • measure campaign performance;
  • maintain internal records of campaign responses.

We do not use lead-form data to infer sensitive personal characteristics. We do not ask you to provide political opinions, health information, financial account data, national identification numbers, or other sensitive information through advertising lead forms.

You can request deletion of lead-form data by emailing info@tdcenter.org.

7. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website may use cookies, pixels, tags, scripts, local storage, and similar technologies.

These technologies may be used for:

  • essential website operation;
  • security and fraud prevention;
  • language and preference settings;
  • analytics and performance measurement;
  • newsletter signup forms;
  • advertising campaign measurement;
  • conversion tracking;
  • social-media sharing or campaign attribution.

Some cookies are necessary for the website to work. Others are used for analytics, advertising, or optional functionality. Where legally required, we will ask for consent before using non-essential cookies or advertising identifiers.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. If you block cookies, some website features may not work as intended.

8. Sharing of Information

We may share personal data with:

  • hosting, security, and website infrastructure providers;
  • WordPress and website-plugin service providers used to operate the site;
  • email and newsletter providers such as MailerLite;
  • analytics and advertising providers such as Google;
  • social and advertising platforms such as LinkedIn, Meta, Facebook, and Instagram when you interact with our campaigns or when campaign measurement tools are used;
  • professional advisers, contractors, or service providers who support TDC operations;
  • public authorities or legal counterparties where required by law or necessary to protect rights, security, or safety.

We do not sell your contact details for money. Some privacy laws may define certain advertising cookies, pixels, or cross-context advertising identifiers as “sharing” or “targeted advertising”. Where those laws apply, you may have rights to opt out of that type of processing.

9. International Transfers

TDC is based in Ukraine, and our service providers may process data in other countries, including countries outside your place of residence. Those countries may have different data-protection rules.

When we use service providers, we seek to use appropriate contractual, technical, and organizational safeguards for the protection of personal data.

10. Data Retention

We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law.

Typical retention criteria include:

  • newsletter records are kept while you remain subscribed and for a reasonable period after unsubscribe to maintain suppression and compliance records;
  • event or inquiry records are kept as needed to manage the event, respond to the request, and maintain operational records;
  • campaign lead data is kept only as long as needed for follow-up, campaign reporting, and legal or operational recordkeeping;
  • analytics data is retained according to the settings of the analytics tools we use;
  • security logs are kept for a limited period unless needed to investigate abuse or security incidents.

You may request deletion of your personal data by contacting info@tdcenter.org.

11. Your Choices and Rights

Depending on where you live and which laws apply, you may have rights to:

  • request access to your personal data;
  • request correction of inaccurate data;
  • request deletion of data;
  • object to or restrict certain processing;
  • withdraw consent where processing is based on consent;
  • unsubscribe from marketing emails;
  • request a copy of certain data in a portable format;
  • opt out of certain advertising or targeted-advertising processing;
  • lodge a complaint with a competent data-protection authority.

To exercise privacy rights, contact info@tdcenter.org. We may need to verify your request before acting on it.

12. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal data. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

13. Third-Party Links

Our website may link to third-party websites, platforms, event pages, publications, embedded media, or social-media pages. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party services. Review their privacy policies before submitting information to them.

14. Children’s Privacy

Our website and campaigns are not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children through the website or advertising lead forms.
