The HUMERA website is an informational platform that presents the foundation’s mission, areas of work, projects, news, and humanitarian and development content. It is operated by Humera International Foundation, and is referred to in these terms as “we.”

2. Permitted Use

You may browse the website, view its content, and share links to its pages for identification and awareness purposes, while respecting intellectual property rights and the privacy of the people featured in the published materials.

The website must be used lawfully, without harming it or its users or disrupting its services.

3. Prohibited Uses

The website may not be used in any of the following practices:

  • Attempting unauthorized access to its systems or data, or disabling its functions.

  • Sending malicious software, fraudulent messages, or content that violates the law.

  • Impersonating HUMERA or one of its employees or partners.

  • Using the name HUMERA or its logo to raise funds, request others’ data, or make commitments on its behalf without written authorization.

  • Collecting people’s data from the website or using it in a way that violates their privacy or rights.

  • Altering the content or presenting it in a way that suggests a partnership, endorsement, or approval that does not exist.

4. Intellectual Property Rights

The rights to the content published on the website, including texts, designs, logos, images, videos, and reports, belong to HUMERA or to the rights holders who have allowed their use, according to the nature of each item and within the limits of the legal protection granted to it.

Protected materials may not be republished, modified, or used for commercial or advertising purposes without prior permission from the rights holder, except for uses permitted by law or by a license attached to the material.

You may share links to the website pages, but merely mentioning the source does not constitute permission to reuse all materials. For publication or media-use requests, please contact us to determine the available materials and the terms of their use.

5. Respect for Human Dignity and Privacy

The stories, images, and humanitarian materials published reflect the experiences of people and communities that deserve respect. They may not be used in an offensive or misleading manner, taken out of context, or employed in unauthorized campaigns.

The appearance of a person in a published item does not give a website visitor the right to use their image or data independently, or to contact them without a lawful basis.

6. Information Related to Projects

We work to provide accurate and clear information and update it when needed. However, project details, dates, and scope may change depending on field needs, funding, and operational conditions.

Statistics and results are to be read according to the date, period, and scope stated with them. Displaying a proposed or planned project does not mean that its implementation has begun or been completed unless this is stated explicitly.

Likewise, the general content published does not constitute a promise to provide assistance, accept a request, or enter into a partnership with any party.

7. Correspondence and Requests

When contacting us through the available channels, please provide information that is accurate and relevant to your request, and do not send content that violates the rights of others or their personal data without appropriate authorization.

We review correspondence according to its nature and the available follow-up options. Sending a message or receiving an automatic reply does not mean acceptance of a request for assistance, volunteering, or cooperation, and does not create a contractual obligation unless expressly agreed through an authorized party.

Please do not use the website’s public communication channels to request an emergency response that requires immediate intervention.

8. Privacy

The privacy policy published on the website explains how personal data associated with visiting or contacting us is handled, and the rights available to its owners.

Agreement to the terms of use is not a substitute for any separate consent required for data processing or enabling non-essential tracking tools.

9. Links and External Content

The website may include links to or embedded content from external websites and platforms to provide additional information or facilitate access to related materials.

These services are subject to their own terms and privacy policies. Including an external link does not mean endorsement of all its contents, and we do not control the changes made by the parties operating it.

10. Website Availability and Limitation of Liability

We make reasonable efforts to maintain the website’s operation and the integrity of its content, but it may be subject to temporary interruption, technical errors, or maintenance and updates.

The published information is for general informational and awareness purposes and does not replace specialized professional advice when the situation requires it.

Our liability for damages related to the use of the website is determined according to the applicable laws. These terms do not exclude or limit any liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law, and they do not affect the user’s mandatory rights.

11. Website Protection and Restriction of Use

We may take proportionate technical measures to protect the website, including restricting access related to misuse or attempts to damage its systems, while observing applicable laws and user rights.

12. Updating the Terms

We may update these terms to reflect changes to the website, its services, or legal requirements. The updated version is published on this page with its date indicated, and it applies to use after publication without retroactive effect.

When a change requires additional notice or express consent, we take the required action before applying it.
