We may receive information about which electronic mailings an individual receives, which articles are viewed, and what other actions are taken.
Personal data is stored in one of our contact management databases, which are accessible by our employees and service providers (processors). We work with the database platforms and any service providers to ensure your data are protected.
OpenLMIS will never sell or share your personal data with third parties.
