Institutional Privacy & Data Dignity
effective date · may 24, 2026
Open Library Foundation operates as a disciplined learning institution and treats all patron information as a confidential asset entrusted to our care, never as a commodity.
We collect only essential personal details required for membership creation, identity verification, attendance tracking and statutory compliance. This may include name, contact information, academic category and membership records. All information is stored with restricted access, monitored use and appropriate safeguards against unauthorised disclosure.
Open Library Foundation does not sell, rent or trade any member data to third parties. Information may be shared solely with lawful authorities when mandated under applicable regulations, or with service providers strictly bound by confidentiality for operational necessities such as payment processing.
Members may review and request updates to their recorded information during active membership by contacting our administration desk through official channels. Continued use of our library and services after the effective date of this policy will be treated as acceptance of these terms.
Open Library Foundation reserves the right to revise this privacy policy to reflect institutional, legal or technological changes. Any material updates will be communicated through in-premise notices or trusted digital channels before enforcement.
