Last Updated: Nov 7, 2024

A personal project committed to protecting your privacy

Overview

InternaHub is my personal project dedicated to SDU's international student community. I understand the importance of privacy, especially in an educational context, and am committed to protecting your personal information while creating a safe space for sharing experiences and resources.

Information I Collect

Essential information:

  • Student ID (required for verification)
  • Email address (required for account)

Optional Profile Information:

  • Name (can be any name you prefer)
  • Country of origin (helps connect with students from your region)
  • Major/Study program (connects you with relevant academic content)
  • Languages spoken (useful for language exchange)
  • Profile picture (can be any appropriate image)
  • Bio (share as much or as little as you want)

Why share accurate information?

While all profile details are optional, providing accurate information helps me:

  • Generate meaningful analytics about our international community
  • Create visualizations of student demographics
  • Identify areas where more resources are needed
  • Connect students with similar backgrounds or interests
  • Improve the platform based on actual student needs

Remember: You can always update, remove, or anonymize your profile information at any time. Your privacy is my priority, and I never share individual student data with third parties.

How I Use Your Information

I use your information to:

  • Verify your status as an SDU student

Data Protection

I implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data:

  • Encrypted storage of sensitive information
  • Secure authentication systems
  • Regular security audits
  • Limited access to personal data

Anonymous Content

When you choose to post anonymously:

  • The content is still moderated for community guidelines
  • Your identity remains protected in my database

Communications
