Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how sobibor.edu.pl collects, uses, stores, and protects information when you visit the website, read articles, participate in forum discussions, subscribe to updates, or contact the editorial team. By using the website, you acknowledge the practices described here. If you do not agree, please discontinue use and avoid submitting personal information.

Information we collect

We may collect information you provide directly, such as your name, email address, forum display name, comments, messages, and research questions. We may also receive technical data automatically, including browser type, device type, general location derived from an IP address, pages viewed, referral source, and approximate time of visits. We do not seek sensitive personal data and ask that you do not publish private addresses, identification numbers, medical details, or confidential archival material in public discussions.

How we use information

Information is used to operate and secure the website, respond to inquiries, moderate discussions, prevent abuse, improve navigation, understand which educational resources are useful, and meet legal obligations. We do not sell personal information. We do not use forum contributions for unrelated advertising. Where analytics are enabled, data is reviewed in aggregate where possible and retained only as long as necessary for these purposes.

Cookies and similar technologies

sobibor.edu.pl may use essential cookies to remember preferences, maintain sessions, and protect forms from misuse. Optional analytics or embedded media may set additional cookies. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies may affect sign-in, preferences, or other core functions of the site.

Sharing and retention

We may share limited data with service providers that host the website, deliver email, maintain security, or process technical logs. Providers are expected to use data only for the contracted service. We may disclose information if required by law, to protect rights and safety, or to investigate misuse. Information is retained for a period proportionate to its purpose, then deleted or anonymized when no longer needed.

Your choices and rights

You may request access, correction, or deletion of personal information you have submitted, subject to legal and security requirements. You may unsubscribe from non-essential messages at any time. To exercise your rights or ask a privacy question, email [email protected]. We will verify requests reasonably before responding.

Security and children

We use reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect information, but no online system is completely secure. The website is intended for general and educational audiences; children should use it with guidance from a parent, guardian, or teacher. Third-party links are governed by their own privacy practices.

Changes and contact

We may update this policy to reflect operational, legal, or editorial changes. The latest version will be published on this page. Questions about this Privacy Policy can be sent to [email protected].
