How We Use the Information We Collect
How we use the information we collect depends in part on which Services you use, how you use them, and any preferences you have communicated to us. Below are the specific purposes for which we use the information we collect about you.
To provide the Services and personalize your experience: We use information about you to provide the Services to you, including to process transactions with you, authenticate you when you log in, provide membership support . For example, we use the name and picture you provide in your account to identify you to other InSEA members; executive officers and World Councillors.
For research and development: We are always looking for ways to improve our Services. We use collective learnings about how people use our Services and feedback provided directly to us to troubleshoot and to identify trends, usage, activity patterns and areas for integration and improvement of the Services.

With your consent: We use information about you where you have given us consent to do so for a specific purpose not listed above. For example, we may publish articles and videos about your art education activities, with your permission.
With your consent: we use the information of your profile to share with other InSEA members. If you wish your profile to be visible to other members you can use the visibility options.
Legal bases for processing (for EEA users): If you are an individual in the European Economic Area (EEA), we collect and process information about you only where we have legal bases for doing so under applicable EU laws. This means we collect and use your information only where:
We need it to provide you Membership services, including to operate the Services, provide membership support and personalized features and to protect the safety and security of the Services;
It satisfies a legitimate interest (which is not overridden by your data protection interests), such as for research and development, to promote InSEA and to protect our legal rights and interests;
You give us consent to do so for a specific purpose; or we need to process your data to comply with a legal obligation.
If you have consented to our use of information about you for a specific purpose, you have the right to change your mind at any time, but this will not affect any processing that has already taken place. Where we are using your information because we or a third party (e.g. your employer) have a legitimate interest to do so, you have the right to object to that use though, in some cases, this may mean no longer using the Services.
How We Store and Secure the Information We Collect
We use data hosting service providers to host the information we collect, and we use technical measures to secure your data. While we implement safeguards designed to protect your information, no security system is impenetrable and due to the inherent nature of the Internet, we cannot guarantee that data, during transmission through the Internet or while stored on our systems or otherwise in our care, is absolutely safe from intrusion by others. We will respond to requests about this within a reasonable timeframe.
How Long We Keep Information
We retain your account information until you remain an InSEA member. Where we retain information for Service improvement and development, we take steps to eliminate information that directly identifies you, and we only use the information to uncover collective insights about the use of our Services, not to specifically analyze personal characteristics about you.
How to Access and Control Your Information
You can access and control your information on InSEA webpage , under the section : Myprofile.
