Privacy Policy

We may collect information you provide directly, such as your name, email address, phone number, organization name, and messages submitted through contact or membership forms.

When you create a member login on this prototype site, account details are stored locally in your browser for demonstration purposes until a production identity service is connected.

We may collect basic technical data such as browser type, device information, and pages visited to keep the site secure and understand aggregate usage. Newsletter sign-ups in the footer collect email addresses only when you choose to subscribe.

We use your information to respond to inquiries, process membership applications and payments shown on this site, share federation updates you have asked to receive, and improve our programs and digital services.

We do not sell personal information. We use data only for federation operations, member support, and lawful purposes consistent with our mission across Maharashtra.

This website may use essential cookies or local storage to remember language preferences, session state, and prototype authentication. Optional analytics, if enabled in the future, will be described here and configured to respect your choices where required by law.

You can clear site data through your browser settings at any time, which may sign you out of demo member features.

We may share information with trusted service providers who help us operate the website, email members, or process payments — only under contracts that require appropriate safeguards.

We may disclose information when required by law, to protect the rights and safety of USOF, member NGOs, or the public, or with your consent.

We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, including legal, accounting, or reporting requirements for federation records.

Demo data stored in your browser is under your control and is not retained on USOF servers until backend services are live.

Depending on applicable law, you may request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information we hold about you, or object to certain processing.

To exercise these rights or update your communication preferences, contact us using the details in the Contact section below. We will respond within a reasonable time.

This website is intended for NGO leaders, partners, and adults engaging with federation services. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16 without parental or guardian consent. If you believe a child has provided us data, please contact us so we can take appropriate steps.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will change when we do. Material changes may also be noted on the website or communicated to members where appropriate.

For privacy questions or requests, email contact@usof.org or write to United Social Organization Federation, Shivajinagar, Pune, Maharashtra 411005, India.
