Data We Collect
Functional cookies: jwunitedLang (remembers your language preference, 150 days), legalAcceptanceConsent (remembers your cookie consent choice, 150 days), functionalCookies (stores your cookie preferences, 150 days). These are set only after you give consent through the cookie banner.
Server logs: When you visit jwunited.org, our server automatically records your IP address, the date and time of your visit, the pages you request, and your browser's user agent string. These logs are used solely for security purposes (detecting abuse, attacks, and technical issues).
Email: If you contact us by email, we receive the information you provide in your message (name, email address, message content).
Analytics cookies: If you consent to analytics tracking, Matomo (our self-hosted analytics platform) sets first-party cookies (_pk_id and _pk_ses, 13 months) to understand how you use our website. IP addresses are anonymized at collection time — we never store full IP addresses. If you reject analytics cookies, we still collect anonymous usage data (pageviews, referrers, device type, country) without setting any cookies.

Emails with legal or financial significance (invoices, contracts, legal correspondence) are retained for the period required by applicable law.

Third-Party Services
Cloudflare: Our website uses Cloudflare for DNS resolution. Cloudflare may process your IP address as part of their DNS services. Cloudflare acts as an independent data controller for this processing. See Cloudflare's privacy policy at cloudflare.com/privacypolicy for more information.
Matomo Analytics: We use Matomo, a self-hosted analytics platform, to understand how visitors use jwunited.org. Matomo runs on our own server — no third-party processor is involved. IP addresses are anonymized at collection time. If you consent to analytics cookies, Matomo sets first-party cookies to track returning visitors. If you reject, Matomo operates in cookieless mode, collecting only aggregate pageview data. No personal data is shared with any third party.
