Welcome to the Privacy Policy of Health Telescope, This policy page contains and directs all operations that relates to Health Telescope, which is accessed via https://www.healthtelescope.org and everyone who would use this website. Every detail included in this policy are with adequate legal advice and should be treated in such manner as written here.
Privacy
For us, the privacy of our visitors is of great importance. This is why our policy outlines the nature of personal information collected by us and how it is used.
First, we require cookies for web-pages. We usually advise that your browser consents and adapt to our cookies choice for optimum performance, experience and usability on your device.
Also, like other sites, we use log files. The information inside the log files includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, type of browser, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date/time stamp, referring/exit pages, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user’s movement around the site, and gather demographic information. IP addresses, and other such information are not linked to any information that is personally identifiable.
At the same time, we do not store your passwords in any form. However, comments may require passwords and permissions from social I.D’s you have previously engaged in. The details required from you here are to check the performance of visitors and their relationship or engagement with the website. For example, the contact form requires your e-mail and name to identify the sender and not his or her identity. It also enables us to respond to an enquiry promptly by addressing the exact person who makes the request. Subscribing to our email marketing services also helps you get updates and promotional items from us and our sister/affiliated ministries. Please note that your emails and all other details are safe. We do not share them with any other party.
Linking Policy
On our website, we place links to build external relations and internal linking structures. Some of these links are through affiliate companies. These links do not cause any harm to the best of our knowledge. We try to scrutinize them as much as possible before putting them up and can guarantee that you are safe when clicking on them. While we guarantee the purity of these links, we however, are not responsible for the linked sites and the contents therein. Your interaction on any linked website is solely at your discretion. You can do well to check the policy pages of other sites when you visit.
Cookie Policy
Some of our advertising partners may use cookies on our site. These third-party ad servers or ad networks use technology to serve the ads and links that appear on our site directly to your browsers. They automatically receive your IP address when this occurs. These may also be used by the third-party ad networks to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements and/or to personalize the advertising content that you see.
We have no access to or control over these cookies that are used by third-party advertisers. You may consult the respective privacy policies of these third-party ad servers for more detailed information on their practices as well as for instructions about how to opt-out of certain practices. This privacy policy does not apply to, and we cannot control the activities of, such other advertisers or web sites. If you wish to disable cookies, you may do so via your individual browser options and we shall explain to you.
According to Google, here is how cookies work “….Many websites and apps use Google services to improve their content and keep it free. When they integrate our services, these sites and apps share information with Google.
“For example, when you visit a website that uses advertising services like AdSense, including analytics tools like Google Analytics, or embeds video content from YouTube, your web browser automatically sends certain information to Google. This includes the URL of the page you’re visiting and your IP address. We may also set cookies on your browser or read cookies that are already there. Apps that use Google advertising services also share information with Google, such as the name of the app and a unique identifier for advertising.
“Google uses the information shared by sites and apps to deliver our services, maintain and improve them, develop new services, measure the effectiveness of advertising, protect against fraud and abuse, and personalize content and ads you see on Google and on our partners’ sites and apps. See Google Privacy Policy to learn more about how we process data for each of these purposes and our Advertising page for more about Google ads, how your information is used in the context of advertising, and how long Google stores this information.
“Our Privacy Policy explains the legal grounds Google relies upon to process your information — for example, we may process your information with your consent or to pursue legitimate interests such as providing, maintaining and improving our services to meet the needs of our users.
“Sometimes, when processing information shared with us by sites and apps, those sites and apps will ask for your consent before allowing Google to process your information. For example, a banner may appear on a site asking for consent for Google to process the information that site collects. When that happens, we will respect the purposes described in the consent you give to the site or app, rather than the legal grounds described in the Google Privacy Policy. If you want to change or withdraw your consent, you should visit the site or app in question to do so.”
