Privacy Policy

Who we are

At DeployDiscipline, we are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. This policy outlines how we collect, use, and safeguard your personal data during psychological counseling, psychosocial work, and educational activities.

Commitment to Professional Ethics

As per the ethical guidelines of the TA Center, all DeployDiscipline Counsellors are committed to maintaining the highest standards of confidentiality. We do not disclose any information shared during sessions or training outside of the professional context.

Personal Information Collection and Use

We collect personal information during counseling sessions to better understand and address your needs. This data includes your name, contact details, and any other information you voluntarily provide during consultations. We will never share your data with third parties without your explicit consent unless required by law.

Confidentiality and Data Protection

All information shared in the context of counseling or educational sessions is strictly confidential. This confidentiality will only be breached in exceptional cases where there is a legal or ethical obligation, such as preventing harm to yourself or others.

Website Interaction

When visitors interact with our website, we may collect personal data such as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam. If you leave a comment, your profile picture may become visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media Uploads

If you upload images to the website, please ensure that they do not contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS), as visitors may extract this information.

Cookies

We use cookies to enhance your browsing experience. These cookies allow us to remember your login preferences and session data for easier access. Cookies are stored for varying periods depending on their function, but you may disable them at any time through your browser settings.

Third-Party Content

Our website may include embedded content such as videos and articles from external websites. These third-party websites may collect data about you, track your interactions, and apply cookies independently of our platform.

Your Rights

You have the right to access, edit, or delete your personal information stored with us at any time. If you have any concerns about your data, you may request that we provide an exported file of all the personal data we hold or ask for it to be erased.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
