8. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies.

Cookies are small pieces of information stored on a visitor's device by a website. Cookies may be used for purposes such as enabling essential website functionality, maintaining security and remembering consent preferences.

The website is built and hosted using Wix and uses Usercentrics for Wix as its consent management platform.

​

This information describes the website's current configuration. The website may be updated in the future, including through the addition of applications, integrations, embedded content or other technologies. Where such changes introduce additional cookies or similar technologies, this Policy and the website's consent-management configuration will be reviewed and updated as necessary.

​

8.2 Strictly Necessary Technologies

The website uses technologies that are strictly necessary for its operation, security and basic functionality.

Such technologies may be used without consent where they are technically necessary to provide the website or a service explicitly requested by the visitor, or otherwise fall within an applicable exemption under the relevant ePrivacy rules.

Wix may use essential technologies for purposes including website functionality, security, fraud prevention and technical stability.

​

8.3 Usercentrics Consent Management Platform

The website uses Usercentrics for Wix, provided by:

Usercentrics GmbH
Sendlinger Str. 7

Germany

Usercentrics acts as a processor for the purpose of consent management.

The service is used to:

  • obtain and manage visitors' consent choices;

  • store consent and withdrawal information;

  • document consent for compliance purposes.

According to the information displayed through the website's consent interface, Usercentrics may process information relating to consent choices and preferences, including consent ID, time of consent, consent type, user settings, user agent, referrer URL, IP address and geographic location.

The service uses local storage and a pixel for consent-management purposes.

The legal basis indicated for this processing is Article 6(1)(c) GDPR, insofar as the processing is necessary to comply with applicable legal obligations concerning the documentation of consent.

The consent information is retained for one year, after which it is deleted in accordance with the stated retention period.

The primary processing location indicated by the consent interface is the European Union.

For further information about Usercentrics' processing of personal data, please consult Usercentrics' Privacy Policy.

​

9. Cookie Consent

Our website uses Usercentrics to manage cookie consent.

Because the current website scan identified only essential components, the website does not currently use non-essential Analytics or Marketing components requiring consent.

If non-essential cookies or similar technologies are introduced in the future, they will be subject to the applicable consent requirements before being activated.

Visitors may use the cookie consent interface to review information about the technologies used by the website and, where applicable, manage their consent preferences.

​

10. Website Provider and Data Processors

The website is created and hosted using Wix.

Wix may process personal data on behalf of B'nai B'rith Alliance in connection with the hosting, operation, security and technical provision of the website.

As the owner of the website, B'nai B'rith Alliance acts as the data controller for visitors' personal data. Wix acts as a data processor where it processes such data on behalf of B'nai B'rith Alliance.

Usercentrics GmbH processes consent-related information on our behalf as described above.

Other service providers may be used where necessary for the operation, security or administration of the website. Where such providers process personal data on our behalf, appropriate contractual and data protection safeguards will be implemented as required by applicable law.

​

11. International Data Transfers

Wix operates infrastructure and servers in multiple locations, including locations within and outside the European Economic Area.

Where personal data are transferred outside the European Economic Area, B'nai B'rith Alliance will ensure that an appropriate legal mechanism under Chapter V GDPR is in place, such as an adequacy decision, Standard Contractual Clauses or another lawful transfer mechanism.

Wix states that transfers of personal data outside the European Economic Area are conducted in accordance with applicable European data protection requirements.

The Usercentrics consent-management information currently displayed through the website indicates the primary processing location as the European Union.

​

12. Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which they were collected, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

Personal data submitted through the contact form will normally be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to handle the enquiry and any resulting communication. Information may be retained for longer where this is necessary for legal, accounting, organisational or dispute-resolution purposes.

Consent information managed through Usercentrics is retained for one year, according to the information displayed by the Usercentrics consent interface.

Technical and security information may be retained for periods reasonably necessary to protect the website, investigate security incidents and comply with legal obligations.

When personal data are no longer necessary, they will be securely deleted or anonymised where appropriate.

​

13. Data Recipients

Personal data may be accessed by:

  • authorised persons within B'nai B'rith Alliance who need the information to perform their functions;

  • Wix, acting as a technical service provider and data processor;

  • Usercentrics GmbH, acting as a processor for consent management;

​

14. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure or access.

However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
