Service Providers
We use third-party services for website hosting, analytics, advertising and selected features. Providers may process information to deliver those services. Some providers, including Google, process information under their own privacy policies. See the advertising and analytics information below.
Data Retention
We will retain your Personal Information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. We will retain and use your information to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations and resolve academic disputes.
Security
The security of your Personal Information is important to us. We implement commercially acceptable technical and organizational measures to protect your data. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Links To Other Sites
Our Service contains links to other sites (e.g., UAHEB/UNMEB portals). If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that site. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of every site you visit, as we have no control over their content or practices.
Children’s Privacy
Our Service is intended for students and healthcare professionals. We do not knowingly collect information from children under the age of 18. If we discover that a child under 18 has provided us with Personal Information, we will delete it from our servers immediately.

We will disclose your Personal Information where required to do so by law or subpoena, or if we believe that such action is necessary to comply with the law and the reasonable requests of Ugandan law enforcement.
Changes To This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
Google advertising, analytics and your choices
Advertising helps support free access. We use Google advertising and analytics services. Google and other advertising providers may use cookies or similar technologies to display and measure ads, including ads based on visits to this and other websites.
When a page uses Google services, information such as the page address and your IP address may be sent to Google, and Google may set or read cookies. Google explains these practices in How Google uses information from partner sites and its Privacy Policy.
You can manage personalised advertising through Google’s ad settings and review your browser’s cookie controls. Those settings and any choices presented by the relevant service affect how advertising information is used.

Student research submissions
We collect report metadata, an abstract, a review copy of the PDF or DOCX and contact details to assess a submission. Uploaded review files are kept outside the public media library and are available to site administrators. Nothing is listed automatically. Only the author contact channels selected and consented to by the submitter are displayed after approval. Temporary hashed rate-limit identifiers help prevent abuse. Contact us to correct or withdraw your listing; authors remain responsible for permissions and removing participant identifiers.
