Privacy Policy

Introduction

This Privacy Policy describes how IUDI University, operated by the International Development Foundation (IDF), handles information collected through this marketing website at www.iudi.org.

The student and applicant platform at campus.iudi.org operates under a separate privacy policy. If you create a Campus account or apply through campus.iudi.org/apply, that policy governs your information there.

Who We Are

IUDI University (operated by the International Development Foundation) 5900 Balcones Drive, Suite 100, Austin, TX 78731, United States Email: comm@iudi.org

IUDI University is responsible for personal information collected through this website.

Information We Collect

Information you provide

If you contact us by email through this website, we collect what you choose to send us — typically your name, email address, the program you are interested in, and any message you write.

We do not accept formal applications, payments, or academic records on this website. Those are handled on campus.iudi.org under its own policy.

Information collected automatically

We use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which is privacy-focused: it does not set cookies and does not track individual visitors. It records aggregate information such as page views, browser type, and approximate country.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information you submit to:

Respond to your inquiry
Send you information about programs, scholarships, and application windows if you ask us to
Maintain and improve this website

We do not sell your information, and we do not share it for advertising.

Third-Party Services

This website relies on one third-party service:

Cloudflare hosts this website and provides Web Analytics. See Cloudflare’s privacy policy.

The Apply CTAs on this website link to our applicant platform at campus.iudi.org, which is operated by IUDI University under a separate privacy policy. Information you submit on Campus is governed by that policy, not this one.

Cookies and Local Storage

This website does not use tracking cookies or third-party advertising cookies.

We store one item in your browser’s local storage: your language preference (French or English), so the site remembers it on your next visit. You can clear it through your browser settings at any time.

Data Retention

We keep inquiry submissions and email correspondence only as long as reasonably necessary to respond, follow up, and maintain our records, after which we delete or anonymize them. Cloudflare Web Analytics retains aggregate data on its own schedule.

Your Choices

If you would like to access, correct, or delete information you have submitted to us, or stop receiving messages from us, contact comm@iudi.org and we will respond within a reasonable time. We may ask you to confirm your identity before acting on the request.

Security

We use HTTPS/TLS encryption for all traffic to and from this website, and we rely on the security features of Cloudflare for the services they provide. No system is perfectly secure; if a security incident affects information you have submitted to us, we will notify affected individuals and authorities as required by applicable law.

International Users

IUDI University is based in the United States. If you submit information through this website from outside the United States, your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States and in any country where our service providers operate.

Children

This website is intended for adults considering graduate-level study. It is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If we learn that we have, we will delete it.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The current version is always posted on this page, with the “Last Updated” date at the top.
