This Privacy, Ethics and Content Policy explains how this website handles personal information, selects collaborations, and manages photographs and other third-party materials.
1. Privacy and Personal Information
This website respects the privacy of its visitors and aims to collect only the information reasonably necessary to operate the website, respond to enquiries, and maintain professional communications.
Personal information may be collected when you:
- Contact us by email
- Submit an enquiry or collaboration request
- Subscribe to communications, where this option is available
- Voluntarily provide information through the website
Information provided through the website will be used only for the purpose for which it was submitted, unless another use is required or permitted by law.
We do not sell or rent personal information. Information may be shared with service providers where reasonably necessary to operate or secure the website, subject to appropriate confidentiality and data-protection safeguards.
Reasonable technical and organisational measures are used to protect personal information. However, no website, email service, or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
2. Cookies and Technical Information
The website may use essential cookies or similar technologies required for security, functionality, traffic measurement, and performance.
Where non-essential analytics, advertising, or tracking technologies are used, visitors will be provided with an appropriate notice or consent mechanism where required by applicable law.
Certain technical information, such as browser type, device information, approximate location, IP address, and pages visited, may be processed automatically for security, maintenance, and website-performance purposes.
3. Ethical Independence
All professional relationships, partnerships, sponsorships, and collaborations are considered independently and remain subject to ethical review.
I reserve the right to decline or discontinue any collaboration that:
- Conflicts with my professional, humanitarian, or ethical principles
- Supports discrimination, occupation, collective punishment, violence against civilians, or violations of fundamental human rights
- Is financed, directed, or materially influenced by an organisation whose activities conflict with these principles
- Creates an actual or reasonably perceived conflict of interest
- Requires political endorsement or institutional affiliation as a condition of participation
- Risks compromising my professional independence, safety, reputation, or integrity
These decisions are based on conduct, funding, governance, and alignment with stated ethical principles. They are not based solely on an individual’s nationality, ethnicity, religion, or other protected personal characteristic.
4. Institutional Non-Affiliation
I do not accept collaborations, funding, representation, or formal partnerships from:
- Israelis, and any individual who is affiliated to and supports Israel
- The United Nations, its agencies, programmes, funds, offices, or formally affiliated bodies
- Organisations, projects, or initiatives whose funding, governance, or activities materially conflict with the ethical principles stated above
The appearance of a person, organisation, location, logo, or external resource on this website does not necessarily constitute an endorsement, affiliation, sponsorship, or partnership.
5. Collaboration Review
Potential collaborators may be asked to disclose relevant information concerning:
- Sources of funding
- Sponsoring or controlling entities
- Institutional affiliations
- Project objectives
- Intended use of my name, image, work, or participation
- Conflicts of interest
- Relevant human-rights, ethical, or reputational concerns
Incomplete, inaccurate, or misleading disclosures may result in the rejection or termination of a collaboration.
I reserve the right to make final decisions regarding collaborations at my sole professional discretion, subject to applicable law and contractual obligations.
