Cookies
AFS Interculture South Africa does utilise cookies. A “cookie” is a small
piece of data sent from a website and stored in a user’s web browser while
the user is browsing that website. This information helps AFS to know how and
when our site is visited and which pages are viewed.
Third party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a
user’s prior visit/s to our website. This means that you might see an AFS

our site.
We use non-personally identifiable information collected through a “cookie”
to improve the design and content of our site, to enable us to personalise
your Internet experience, analyse trends, gather broad demographic information,
administer the site, and for other AFS purposes.

Security
AFS Interculture South Africa will not sell, rent, share, trade or give
away any personally identifiable information to any third parties outside
our partner organisations and those working directly with them in connection
with AFS activities. We will only disclose personally identifiable
information we maintain to those not directly working in connection with
AFS activities when required to do so by law, for example, in response to
a court order or a subpoena.
Personal information collected by AFS Interculture South Africa and our
websites is stored in secure operating environments and can only be accessed
by AFS Interculture South Africa employees, consultants, or volunteers
exclusively for the management of the AFS Interculture South Africa programme
operations. At present, we centralise records of personal information in
the United States of America and in Thailand. Therefore, we may transfer your
personal information to other countries, including but not limited to the
United States of America and Thailand, and may perform some of our data
processing of your personal information outside your country of residence.
The transfer and processing of your information may be governed by the laws
of the United States of America, Thailand, or another jurisdiction, which
may not offer the same rights and remedies as the laws in your country of

process or store it, following this privacy statement. By submitting your personal
data to AFS, you hereby consent to this transfer and processing of your
personal information.
