How we collect this information
Before you are able to attend our events or partner with us, you are required to enter your details to complete the transaction so we can issue you access in return by the issuance of tickets (this will be through evenbrite) or others. It is through this course of a sale that we collect your data.
If you do not proceed with the completion of a transaction we may still send you communications provided that you actively expressed interest in anything we commercially offer by contacting us with inquiries, request to be informed in the future and others.
We promote campaigns and charitable causes that aid our cause and through this process we enter transactions with you that require your information. This information is given with your consent.
Occasionally we call for volunteers and ask for consent and personal information by filling out physical or digital forms.
Finally, on our different platforms we offer ways for you to opt in to receiving communications from us based on interest by entering your details through a form or by sending them manually. These may be through our website or any of our social media accounts.
Justice for Sisters in Islam is not responsible for any misuse of information by people or accounts claiming to be us. We encourage individuals to verify identities before sending their personal information.
