Protection and Privacy

Introduction

This page explains how we handle what you share with us. It is part of our ethical commitment in the Soma-Feminism project,and not merely a legal text. We write it in clear language, because trust is not a clause in a contract, but the foundation of a relationship.

1. Participation Is Entirely Voluntary
  • We do not ask anyone to participate.
  • We do not pressure anyone to answer.
  • You may skip any question that does not feel comfortable.
  • You may stop at any moment, without giving any reason.
  • Participation does not create any financial, legal, or moral obligation on you.
2. Identity and Privacy
  • You may participate anonymously if you wish.
  • If you choose to disclose your identity, we will keep it strictly confidential..
  • We will not share your name or data with any third party.
  • We will not use your email except to communicate with you about your participation.
  • If you request deletion of your data, we will delete it.
3. How Your Answers Are Used
  • What you share is read as testimony, not data..
  • We will not publish any answer without your conscious consent..
  • We will not use any answer as "research material" without your permission.
  • If your answer is published, it will be published in excerpts or in anonymous form, according to your choice.
  • You may withdraw your answer at any time, and we will delete it from the archive.
4. Sensitive Materials
  • We treat every testimony as sensitive material, not as a resource..
  • Some materials may never be published, because publishing them may harm their owner.
  • The final decision on publication belongs to you, not to us.
  • If we believe that publishing a testimony may harm you, we will tell you, and leave the decision to you.
5. Non-Representation
  • Published testimonies do not represent all bodies, nor all experiences.
  • Every testimony is an individual experience, read in its context.
  • We do not claim to represent "the Syrian people," "women," or "students."
  • What we offer is layers of awareness, not a single voice..

You have the right to:

  • Knowledge: to know how your answer is used.
  • Consent: to agree to publication before it happens.
  • Withdrawal: to withdraw your answer at any time.

  • Silence: to choose not to answer, without justification.
7. What We Do Not Do

  • We do not share it with governmental or security entities.
  • We do not use it for commercial purposes.
  • We do not publish it without your consent.
  • We do not turn it into "research material" without your conscious choice.
