How We Handle Personal Information
Expedition Audacity Research Foundation (“EAR Foundation,” “we,” or “us”) respects the privacy of individuals who engage with our work.
This Privacy Policy explains how limited personal information may be collected, used, stored, and protected when you interact with our website, communications, donations, or programmes.

When personal information is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymised where reasonably practicable.
We may engage third-party service providers to support administrative, technical, or operational functions such as website hosting, communications, or donation processing.
