What information do you collect, and why?
When you fill out a form on Climate Interactive, we collect your name, email address, and sometimes other information, such as your affiliation, the sector you work in, and the country you live in, depending on the form. We do this to collect usage statistics on our tools and monitor how they are being used and spread.
When you register a World Climate or World Energy event, we use the facilitator’s name, the date and location of the event, and the number and type of participants to add to our map of World Climate events and map of World Energy events, as well as to analyze the growth and spread of these simulations.
When you enroll in The Climate Leader online course, we use your email address to send you course materials.
If you opt in, we use your name and email address to send you occasional newsletters and project updates. You can unsubscribe from our emails at any time, or you may contact us to view, update, or remove your personal information.
Who has my information, and for how long?
Your information is stored in MailChimp and Salesforce, the services we use to manage contacts and email communications, in accordance with their privacy policies. Your information may also be stored in the WordPress plugins we use to manage our online forms, such as Contact Form 7 and Contact Form DB. If you download C-ROADS Pro for Mac, your information is stored in Gumroad, the service we use to distribute the software. Aside from the information noted above that appears on our public World Climate and World Energy maps, and these services we use internally, we do not share your personal information with anyone.
Your information will be stored indefinitely, unless you ask for it to be removed.
