Privacy Policy & Data Practices.

1. Introduction & Society Ownership

This website is owned and operated by the WORTH Association (hereafter “Our”, “We”, or “Society”). Our principal place of operational governance is located in British Columbia, Canada, incorporated as a registered non-profit society under Society Registration No. S0069800.

By accessing or using this website as an individual or organizational representative (hereafter “You”), you acknowledge and agree to the provisions outlined in this Privacy Policy. We reserve the right to revise this document periodically; notice of alterations will be reflected through updating the “Last Updated” date at the top of this Policy.

Continued engagement with our digital services, newsletter communications, and program applications subsequent to any revisions constitutes formal acceptance of the updated standards.

2. Collection of Personal & Operational Data

WORTH Association collects information that you voluntarily submit through forms, survey responses, mentorship program applications, scholarship evaluations, newsletter signups, and direct correspondence. This may include your legal name, professional email address, organizational title, telephone contact, professional background narrative, and self-identified demographic insights relevant to program equity.

Furthermore, our digital interfaces employ industry-standard analytics tools and third-party advertising partners (such as AdRoll and privacy-conscious analytics services) to recognize device parameters and measure visitor interaction trends. These technical integrations enable us to refine our educational resources, understand accessibility requirements, and optimize community outreach.

3. Use of the Information You Provide

You maintain the fundamental right to comprehend how your personal disclosures are utilized. Personally identifiable data provided to WORTH Association is applied strictly to execute the operational services you have requested, including:

• Processing applicant pairings within the WORTH-while Mentorship Program.
• Administering enrollment, transit subsidies, and childcare allocations for the WORTH Academy Single Mothers Program.
• Issuing charitable receipts and stewardship reporting for personal and corporate donations.
• Distributing our monthly editorial newsletter, leadership insights, and event invitations.

Aggregated, non-identifying operational analytics are evaluated to understand community reach across geographic regions in Canada. WORTH Association does not sell, rent, or lease donor or participant lists to commercial third parties, nor do we employ automated artificial intelligence decision-making to reject program applicants.

4. Third-Party Technologies & Digital Opt-Outs

Certain partners and network services may utilize browser-independent technologies that are not affected by conventional browser cookie blocking. To exercise comprehensive control over interest-based outreach and third-party tracking mechanisms, you may utilize established industry self-regulatory opt-out platforms:

You may also opt out of direct WORTH marketing and newsletter emails at any moment using the one-click unsubscribe mechanism positioned in every email footer.

5. Storage of Information & Administrative Safeguards

WORTH Association maintains robust administrative, technical, and physical safeguards engineered to protect personal records against unauthorized disclosure, alteration, accidental loss, unlawful interception, or destruction.

All digital database records are stored in encrypted cloud repositories adhering to Canadian Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) standards. Access is restricted to authorized personnel who have executed confidentiality covenants.
