Introduction

This page explains how and why your personal information is collected, or used, when you visit this website (www.jisc.edu.lk) or our Social Media Pages, including Facebook.


Who will process my personal information?

When you view or use www.jisc.edu.lk, or any web page within the same domain (jisc.edu.lk) that has referred you to this privacy notice, JISC Campus (‘we’, ‘us’ and ‘the Campus’) is the data controller. In case of Facebook Page (www.facebook.com/JISCCampus) JISC Campus is a joint data controller.

This notice applies to the use of your personal information (also known as ‘personal data’) by JISC Campus, when you view or use our website/domain.

If you follow a link from this website to another website, we recommend that you read their Privacy Policy on that website to find out what it does with your information.


What personal information is collected and why?

For site security and performance

When you visit our website, we use cookies and page-tagging techniques to collect the request made by your browser to the server hosting the website. This includes your IP address, the date and time of connection, the version of the web browser you are using, and the page you ask for. We use this information to ensure the security of our websites and we delete it after a maximum of three months. We may need to use and disclose it as necessary in the event of a security concern or incident.


To improve our service to you

When you visit our website, we use the third-party Google Analytics service to collect standard internet log information, which includes your IP address. We do this to find out how visitors use our website and to improve its usability. The data is anonymised before it is stored and before we see or use it for analytics processing. We do not make any attempt to find out the identities of those visiting our site. If you have sent a ‘do not track’ request from your web browser, we will respect it and will not collect analytics data. For more information about how Google Analytics uses this information, please see the Google Privacy Policy.


To remember marketing preferences

Third-party services that we embed on some of our webpages – such as Instagram feeds, Twitter feeds and YouTube videos – may set cookies to measure how you use their services and record what advertising you see during your use of their service. This will only happen if you opt-in to receiving ‘Social marketing preferences’ cookies.


What should you expect to happen with the information?

We are committed to respecting the information you trust us with and to making sure that we keep it safe. Our websites collect very little personal information and we use it in ways that are compatible with your individual rights and freedoms.

The use of your personal information in the ways described above is necessary for the legitimate interests of JISC Campus in operating and improving its websites, analysing their use and ensuring their security, or is carried out with your consent when you accept certain cookies.

Where we do need to collect any additional personal data not listed above via our website, you will be told at that time about the use we will make of that information. For example, you may need to complete an online form in order for us to send you information on our educational programmes or to book to attend an event, a webinar or a virtual classroom.

Our services are not designed for, or intentionally targeted at, those who are 16 years of age or younger. We do not intentionally collect or maintain data about anyone under the age of 16.


Transferring your information outside Sri Lanka

If and when our third-party providers are based outside Sri Lanka, we may need to transfer your personal information outside of Sri Lanka in order to provide you with the services and products you require or as necessary for our legitimate interests. Any such transfers are carried out with appropriate safeguards in place to ensure the confidentiality and security of your personal information.

How do I get further information?

For more information about how we handle your personal information, for contact details and to understand your rights under data protection legislation, please see our general data protection notice.
