Tomorrow’s Leaders Program Data Privacy Notice
 
This privacy notice applies to all personal information that FHI 360 and the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs Office of Assistance Coordination (data controllers, collectively “we”) collect or process about you in connection with participation in the Tomorrow’s Leader’s Program. The purpose of the Tomorrow’s Leaders Program is to recruit applicants for scholarships at three regional universities. We comply with all local applicable data protection laws and regulations in the countries in which participants reside.

For prospective applicants, participants, and parents, the Tomorrow’s Leaders Program collects information about you through your Tomorrow’s Leaders application forms and any supplemental documents you provide. This information includes personal information, such as name, contact information, photo identification, financial information, school transcripts and your parents’ financial information. For more information about how we protect this information, please see the “Security” section below.

Your data will be used and/or stored for seven (7) years after the conclusion of the Tomorrow’s Leaders Program.

Your Rights

To the extent provided by the laws of your country of residence, you may have the following rights:

The right to assess personal information we process about you and request details of that processing;
The right to request that we update, correct, amend, erase, or restrict your personal information;
The right to request data portability;
The right to submit a complaint to your local data protection authority.
Withdrawal of Consent

Where provided by law, you may withdraw consent you previously provided to us or object at any time to the processing of your personal information and we will apply your preferences going forward as appropriate.  Your withdrawal has no effect on the lawfulness of the data processing that occurred prior to your withdrawal.

Security

We implement technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk to the personal information we process. These measures are aimed at ensuring the ongoing integrity and confidentiality of personal information. We evaluate these measures on a regular basis to ensure the security of the processing. For more information on the appropriate safeguards in place, please contact us at the email address below.

Data Access and Data Transfer

FHI 360 and the MEPI are located in the United States and therefore, some information you provide, such as your application information, is stored on servers located in the United States. Only FHI 360, the MEPI, and associated vendors needed to conduct the Program’s operations, have access to this information in a way that is identifiable (e.g., that is connected to your name).

Any personal information shared with individuals outside your country will be treated in compliance with applicable data protection laws. Data privacy and protection in those countries may not offer the same level of protection as those in your own country, but we transfer data using country-specific mechanisms, such as standard contractual clauses and in some cases, your consent.

Contact Information

If you have questions or concerns regarding the way in which your personal information has been used, or you want to exercise one of your rights or withdraw consent, please contact the FHI Data Privacy Officer at privacy@fhi360.org.

Changes to the Notice

You may request a copy of this privacy notice from us using the contact details set out above. We may modify or update this privacy notice from time to time. You will be able to see when we last updated the privacy notice because we will include a revision date. Changes and additions to this privacy notice are effective from the date on which they are posted. Where changes to this policy will have a fundamental impact on the nature of the processing or otherwise have a substantial impact on you, we will give you sufficient advance notice so that you have the opportunity to exercise your rights (for example, to object to the processing).
