Introduction
The protection of your personal data is of great importance to RED NOSES Jordan which is an official branch office of RED NOSES Clowndoctors International (RNI) - the headquarters of the RED NOSES group located in Vienna (Austria).

Data Privacy Policy
Personal Data
We are the controller[1] responsible for our website, which is currently accessible under https://www.rednoses.jo.

Purpose of Data Processing
Data processing is performed with the purpose of maintaining the integrity of our website. In particular, it enables swift error localization and related troubleshooting, while also allowing us to monitor traffic and, if necessary, make adjustments and improvements.
Legal Basis
Art 6(1) lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for data processing operations. Where the processing of personal data is concerned, our legitimate interest is to administer the necessary data security measures and maintain our web presence pursuant to Art 6(1) lit. f GDPR.
Storage Period
We assure you that your personal data (with the exception of the IP address) will only be stored for a short time and that it will be impossible to identify a person using this data because the attendant IP address will be deleted or, at the very least, anonymized.
Your computer’s IP address will only be stored for the duration of time that you use the website. Following this period of time, it will be deleted or abridged and thereby rendered anonymous. It may be necessary to store data for a longer period of time in cases where hacking or similar attacks are concerned in order to ensure the continued functionality and security of our web presence.
Data Transmission
Your data will not be transmitted to third parties.
[1] Pursuant to Art 4 (7) GDPR.

Revocation of Consent
You can exercise your right to object and revoke your consent at any time without providing a reason by e-mailing smile@rednoses.jo.

As soon as you click on an embedded video to start playback, the extended data protection mode means that YouTube only saves cookies on your computer that contain no personally identifiable data. These cookies can be prevented with the relevant browser settings and extensions (source: YouTube “Activate the extended data protection mode for embedded videos”).
