Automatic data collection.  We, our service providers, and our business partners may automatically log information about you, your computer or mobile device, and your interaction over time with the Service, our communications and other online services, such as:

• Device data, such as your computer or mobile device’s operating system type and version, manufacturer and model, browser type, screen resolution, RAM and disk size, CPU usage, device type (e.g., phone, tablet), IP address, unique identifiers, language settings, mobile device carrier, radio/network information (e.g., Wi-Fi, LTE, 3G), and general location information such as city, state or geographic area.

Cookies and similar technologies. Some of the automatic collection described above is facilitated by cookies, which are small text files that websites store on user devices and that allow web servers to record users’ web browsing activities and remember their submissions, preferences, and login status as they navigate a site. Cookies used on our sites include both “session cookies” that are deleted when a session ends, “persistent cookies” that remain longer, “first party” cookies that we place and “third party” cookies that our third-party business partners and service providers place. 

How we use your personal information

We may use your personal information for the following purposes or as otherwise described at the time of collection:

As part of these activities, we may create aggregated, de-identified and/or anonymized data from personal information we collect.  We make personal information into de-identified or anonymized data by removing information that makes the data personally identifiable to you.  We may use this aggregated, de-identified or otherwise anonymized data and share it with third parties for our lawful business purposes, including to analyze and improve the Service and promote our business.

Marketing.  We and our service providers may collect and use your personal information to send you direct marketing communications.  You may opt-out of our marketing communications as described in the Opt-out of marketing section below. 

Compliance and protection.  We may use your personal information to:

With your consent.  In some cases, we may specifically ask for your consent to collect, use or share your personal information, such as when required by law.  

Cookies and similar technologies. In addition to the other uses included in this section, we may use the Cookies and similar technologies described above for the following purposes:

• Technical operation. To allow the technical operation of the Service, such as by remembering your selections and preferences as you navigate the site.
• Functionality. To enhance the performance and functionality of our services.
• Analytics. To help us understand user activity on the Service, including which pages are most and least visited and how visitors move around the Service, as well as user interactions with our emails. For example, we use Google Analytics for this purpose. You can learn more about Google Analytics and how to prevent the use of Google Analytics relating to your use of our sites here: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en. 

Retention. We generally retain personal information to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements, to establish or defend legal claims, or for fraud prevention purposes.  To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we may consider factors such as the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal information, the purposes for which we process your personal information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.   

When we no longer require the personal information we have collected about you, we may either delete it, anonymize it, or isolate it from further processing.  

How we share your personal information

We may share your personal information with the following parties and as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy or at the time of collection.

Notice to European Users

Where this Notice to European users applies. The information provided in this “Notice to European users” section applies only to individuals located in the EEA or the UK (EEA and UK jurisdictions are together referred to as “Europe”).

Personal information. References to “personal information” in this Privacy Policy should be understood to include a reference to “personal data” (as defined in the GDPR) – i.e., information about individuals from which they are either directly identified or can be identified. It does not include “anonymous data” (i.e., information where the identity of individual has been permanently removed). The personal information that we collect from you is identified and described in greater detail in the section “Personal information we collect”.

Controller. AWID is the controller in respect of the processing of your personal information covered by this Privacy Policy for purposes of European data protection legislation (i.e., the EU GDPR and the so-called ‘UK GDPR’ (as and where applicable, the “GDPR”)). See the How to contact us section above for our contact details. 

Our legal bases for processing. In respect of each of the purposes for which we use your personal information, the GDPR requires us to ensure that we have a “legal basis” for that use. 

Our legal bases for processing your personal information described in this Privacy Policy are listed below.

• Where we need to process your personal information to deliver our Services to you (including our Site) (“Contractual Necessity”).
• Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests (“Legitimate Interests”). More detail about the specific legitimate interests pursued in respect of each Purpose we use your personal information for is set out in the table below.
• Where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation (“Compliance with Law”).
• Where we have your specific consent to carry out the processing for the Purpose in question (“Consent”).  

We have set out below, in a table format, the legal bases we rely on in respect of the relevant Purposes for which we use your personal information – for more information on these Purposes and the data types involved, see How we use your personal information above.

Retention. We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements, to establish or defend legal claims, or for compliance and protection purposes, unless specifically authorized to be retained longer.  

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal information, the purposes for which we process your personal information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements. 

When we no longer require the personal information, we have collected about you, we will either delete or anonymize it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible. If we anonymize your personal information (so that it can no longer be associated with you), we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

Other information

No obligation to provide personal information. You do not have to provide personal information to us. However, where we need to process your personal information either to comply with applicable law or to deliver our Services to you, and you fail to provide that personal information when requested, we may not be able to provide some or all of our Services to you. We will notify you if this is the case at the time.

No Automated Decision-Making and Profiling. As part of the Services, we do not engage in automated decision-making and/or profiling, which produces legal or similarly significant effects. We will let you know if that changes by updating this Privacy Policy.

Security. We have put in place procedures designed to deal with breaches of personal information. In the event of such breaches, we have procedures in place to work with applicable regulators. In addition, in certain circumstances (including where we are legally required to do so), we may notify you of breaches affecting your personal information.

Your rights

General. European data protection laws give you certain rights regarding your personal information. If you are located in Europe, you may ask us to take any of the following actions in relation to your personal information that we hold:

• Access. Provide you with information about our processing of your personal information and give you access to your personal information.

• Correct. Update or correct inaccuracies in your personal information.
• Delete. Delete your personal information where there is no lawful reason for us continuing to store or process it, where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal information to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons that will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request. 
• Portability. Port a machine-readable copy of your personal information to you or a third party of your choice, in certain circumstances. Note that this right only applies to automated information for which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.
• Restrict. Restrict the processing of your personal information, if, (i) you want us to establish the personal information's accuracy; (ii) where our use of the personal information is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it; (iii) where you need us to hold the personal information even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (iv) you have objected to our use of your personal information but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use.
• Object. Object to our processing of your personal information where we are relying on legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation that makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedom – you also have the right to object where we are processing your personal information for direct marketing purposes.
• Withdraw Consent. When we use your personal information based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. This will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent.  

Exercising These Rights. You may submit these requests by email. See the How to contact us section above for our contact details. We may request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and process your request. Whether or not we are required to fulfill any request you make will depend on a number of factors (e.g., why and how we are processing your personal information), if we reject any request you may make (whether in whole or in part) we will let you know our grounds for doing so at the time, subject to any legal restrictions.  Typically, you will not have to pay a fee to exercise your rights; however, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. We try to respond to all legitimate requests within a month. It may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or if you have made a number of requests; in this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.

Your Right to Lodge a Complaint with your Supervisory Authority. In addition to your rights outlined above, if you are not satisfied with our response to a request you make, or how we process your personal information, you can make a complaint to the data protection regulator in your habitual place of residence. 

• For users in the European Economic Area – the contact information for the data protection regulator in your place of residence can be found here: https://edpb.europa.eu/about-edpb/board/members_en.
• For users in the UK – the contact information for the UK data protection regulator is below:

Data Processing outside Europe; we are a US-based company and many of our service providers, advisers, partners or other recipients of data are also based in the US. This means that, if you use the Services, your personal information will necessarily be accessed and processed in the US. It may also be provided to recipients in other countries outside Europe.  

It is important to note that that the US is not the subject of an ‘adequacy decision’ under the GDPR – basically, this means that the US legal regime is not considered by relevant European bodies to provide an adequate level of protection for personal information, which is equivalent to that provided by relevant European laws. 

Where we share your personal information with third parties who are based outside Europe, we try to ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it in accordance with applicable privacy laws by making sure one of the following mechanisms is implemented: 

• Transfers to territories with an adequacy decision. We may transfer your personal information to countries or territories whose laws have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal information by the European Commission or UK Government (as and where applicable) (from time to time).

• Transfers to territories without an adequacy decision. 
  • We may transfer your personal information to countries or territories whose laws have not been deemed to provide such an adequate level of protection (e.g., the US, see above).  
  • However, in these cases:
    • we may use specific appropriate safeguards, which are designed to give personal information effectively the same protection it has in Europe – for example, standard-form contracts approved by relevant authorities for this purpose; or 
    • in limited circumstances, we may rely on an exception, or ‘derogation’, which permits us to transfer your personal information to such country despite the absence of an ‘adequacy decision’ or ‘appropriate safeguards’ – for example, reliance on your explicit consent to that transfer. 

You may contact us if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal information out of Europe.

Ces 21 Défenseuses des Droits humains (WHRDs) ont travaillé en tant que journalistes ou plus généralement dans le domaine des médias au Mexique, en Colombie, aux Îles Fidji, en Lybie, au Népal, aux États-Unis, au Nicaragua, aux Philippines, en Russie, en Allemagne, en France, en Afghanistan et au Royaume-Uni. 17 d'entre elles ont été assassinées et les causes de la mort de l’une d’elles restent obscures. Pour cette Journée mondiale de la liberté de la presse,  joignez-vous à nous pour commémorer la vie et le travail de ces femmes. Faites circuler ces portraits auprès de vos collègues, vos ami-e-s et dans vos réseaux. Partagez-les en utilisant les mots-clés #WPFD2016 et #WHRDs.

Les contributions de ces femmes ont été célébrées et honorées dans notre Hommage en ligne aux défenseuses qui ne sont plus parmi nous.

Visitez notre hommage en ligne 2015

En 2016, nous nous sommes réuni-e-s pour le 13e forum international de l’AWID, à Bahia au Brésil, qui a accueilli 1 800 participant-e-s venu-e-s de 120 pays et territoires à travers le monde. Le Forum a servi d’espace essentiel pour la mise en place de stratégies et la constitution d’alliances au sein des mouvements féministes et d’autres mouvement de justice.

Nous savons que les droits des femmes et les mouvements féministes sont des éléments moteurs pour l’instauration d’un changement transformateur durable. Au sein de nos mouvements, l’organisation, la résistance et la réponse au difficile contexte se précisent, et dans ce monde de plus en plus connecté, le potentiel des actions collectives de mouvements divers s’est fortement accru. C’est précisément là le travail essentiel que l’AWID cherche à amplifier et à soutenir.

Nous cherchons à informer et outiller les organisations et mouvements de droits des femmes afin de les aider à être en mesure de répondre aux opportunités qui se présentent et de contrecarrer les menaces. Nous appuyons une visibilité accrue et une meilleure compréhension des initiatives pour les droits des femmes et les menaces auxquelles elles font face, et nous oeuvrons également à influer sur les acteur-trice-s et les institutions qui façonnent le devenir des droits de la personne et du développement.

Ce que nous avons réalisé en 2016

Élargissement de la solidarité et actions conjointes de divers mouvements

Le 13e forum international innovant de l’AWID s’est tenu du 8 au 11 septembre 2016 à Bahia, au Brésil, sur le thème : « Horizons féministes ; Construire un
pouvoir collectif pour les droits et la justice ».

Bien qu’une grande partie de l’énergie de l’AWID ait été investie en 2016 dans la tenue du Forum, la réflexion et l’énergie de près de 500 partenaires, intervenant-e-s, animateur-trice-s, artivistes, facilitateur-trice-s, écrivain-e-s, innovateur-trice-s en TI, performeur-euse-s, dont beaucoup sont des meneur-euse-s dans leur domaine, ont été mises à profit. Et en reconnaissance du passé et du combat de Bahia, nous avons accueilli deux jours de Forum des Féminismes Noirs , à l’initiative d’un groupe de travail de féministes Noires du monde entier.

Des connaissances approfondies des problématiques et des stratégies

• À propos du défi au pouvoir corporatif : Nous avons publié Contester le pouvoir corporatif : Les luttes pour les droits des femmes, la justice économique et la justice de genre avec le Solidarity Center, qui dévoile la portée et l’ampleur du pouvoir corporatif et souligne comment la collusion qu’entretiennent les entreprises nationales et transnationales avec les élites et autres puissant- e-s acteur-trice-s influence les vies des femmes et des peuples opprimés. Ce rapport présente des clés de stratégies de résistances, en soulignant cinq combats qui se sont saisis de la collaboration entre mouvements pour contester le pouvoir corporatif.

• Sur les économies féministes : Nous avons publié Propositions féministes pour une économie juste avec le Centre pour le leadership mondial des femmes (CWGL en anglais) et le Réseau de Développement et de Communication des Femmes Africaines FEMNET. 

• Sur l’opposition aux fondamentalismes : Le Diable est dans les détails : à la croisée du développement, des droits des femmes et des fondamentalismes religieux détaille la façon dont les fondamentalismes religieux entravent le développement et les droits des femmes en particulier, et offre des recommandations aux acteur-trice-s du développement pour le renforcement des droits des femmes.

• Sur le thème de l’activisme des jeunes féministes : Avec FRIDA, nous avons lancé Courageuses, créatives, résilientes : les organisations de jeunes féministes dans le monde : un état de lieux à l’occasion du Pôle d’activisme des jeunes féministes lors du Forum de l’AWID. Ce projet de cartographie des jeunes féministes s’appuie sur les données collectées dans 1 360 demandes de subventions reçues par FRIDA entre 2012 et 2014, qui incluaient 694 interlocutrices issues de 118 pays différents !

Plaidoyer collectif

l’AWID, en partenariat avec d’autres organisations féministes et de droits des femmes, a lancé des actions de plaidoyer et de dialogue afin de rechercher de meilleures solutions pour les programmes de droits des femmes, dont le travail avec le consortium .Count Me In! 

Amélioration de la visibilité des mouvements

Les expériences des femmes en situation de handicap, les femmes Noires et Afro-descendantes, les travailleuses du sexe, les femmes Autochtones, les personnes trans et intersexes, les travailleuses domestiques, et la manière dont leurs vies sont impactées par les nombreuses oppressions et la violence ont été placées au centre et au premier plan du processus du Forum.

Au cours des 16 jours d’activisme, et grâce aux contributions de nos incroyables membres, nous avons lancé l’Hommage aux défenseur-e-s des droits humains des femmes 2016 pour honorer la mémoire des défenseur-e-s qui nous ont quitté- e-s.

Notre partenariat avec The Guardian et Cash Mama : la section sur les droits des femmes et l’égalité de genre (en anglais) sur le portail du développement dans le monde du Guardian a permis d’attirer davantage d’attention sur les groupes et les problématiques qui ne font généralement pas l’objet d’une couverture médiatique adéquate.
