Privacy Policy

The Group on Earth Observations (GEO) is committed to protecting your privacy. This website conforms to the privacy principles of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), which GEO is hosted by.

Website Analytics

We collect a limited amount of non-personal data to help us understand how visitors use the website and to improve our services. This includes anonymous analytics information such as pages visited, time spent on site, and general usage patterns.

This information is used solely for service improvement purposes, such as optimizing user experience and identifying potential technical issues.

Forms and Event Participation

We may collect personal data — such as name, email address, affiliation, or country — only when voluntarily submitted by users, for example when registering for events, submitting proposals, or subscribing to updates.

This data is used exclusively for the purposes stated in each form, such as event logistics, communication, or participation management, and is handled in accordance with the WMO privacy policy and applicable data protection regulations.

We do not share personal data with third parties unless explicitly stated or required for the execution of GEO-related activities (e.g., sharing participant lists with event organizers).

Your Rights

You have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data. To exercise these rights, or for any privacy-related inquiries, please contact us at secretariat@geosec.org.
