Last updated: August 13, 2025

This website (https://enicslabs.com/) (the “Site”) is operated by EnICS Labs (“the Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”), located at Bar‑Ilan University. We are committed to protecting the privacy of our users and handling personal information in accordance with applicable Israeli law, including the Protection of Privacy Law, 5741‑1981, the Privacy Protection (Data Security) Regulations, 5777‑2017, and any other relevant legislation and guidance.

This Policy explains what personal data we collect, how we use it, with whom we share it, how we secure it, and the choices and rights available to you.

Timestamps and session duration

Referring/exit pages and similar usage information

1.3 Cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to:

Improve and personalize your user experience

Analyze traffic and usage patterns

Operate certain Site features

(Where applicable) tailor content or communications with your consent

You can control cookies through your browser settings; however, disabling some cookies may affect Site functionality.

2) Purposes and legal bases for use of personal data

We process personal data for the following purposes (and, where applicable, on the following legal bases):

Operating, maintaining, and improving the Site (legitimate interests)

Communications: sending service messages and (with your consent, where required) updates or promotional communications (consent / legitimate interests)

Compliance and protection: complying with legal/regulatory obligations; enforcing our terms; preventing fraud, security incidents, or misuse (legal obligation / legitimate interests)

3) Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to measure and understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve it. Google Analytics may collect information such as page views, session duration, and interactions. According to Google’s documentation, Google Analytics 4 does not log or store IP addresses. You can opt out of Google Analytics by using Google’s opt‑out browser add‑on, or by adjusting your browser or device settings.

Consent banner integration: Google Analytics is configured to respect your cookie consent choices. Non‑essential analytics cookies and scripts are activated only after you provide consent via our cookies banner (see Section 7).

4) Sharing of personal data

We do not sell your personal data. We may share personal data in these limited circumstances:

Legal and compliance: where required by law, regulation, or court order; or to protect our rights, users, or the public

Organizational changes: in connection with a merger, reorganization, or other change in control affecting the Site, in which case we will require any successor to honor this Policy or provide notice of material changes

5) International transfers

Personal data may be stored and processed outside of Israel. Where we transfer personal data internationally, we take appropriate measures designed to ensure a level of protection consistent with applicable law, including contractual safeguards where required.

6) Data retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy (for example, to respond to your inquiry, maintain business records, or comply with legal obligations). When retention is no longer necessary, we will delete or anonymize the data.

7) Cookies & tracking choices (Cookies Banner)

We display a cookies consent banner on your first visit (and thereafter at intervals or when settings change). The banner allows you to:

Accept all cookies; Reject non‑essential cookies; or Customize your choices by category.

Change or withdraw your consent at any time via the “Cookie Settings” link (e.g., in the Site footer) or by reopening the banner.

Cookie categories

Strictly necessary: required for the Site to function (always active and cannot be disabled through the banner).

Analytics: help us understand usage and improve 

the Site (e.g., Google Analytics). These load only if you consent.

Functional/Preference (if used): enhance functionality or remember choices.

How we honor your choices

We configure our scripts to defer non‑essential cookies until consent is given.

Your consent status may be stored in a first‑party cookie and/or logged to maintain proof of consent and to remember your selections.

If you reject non‑essential cookies, only strictly necessary cookies will be set; analytics and similar tools will remain disabled (or operate in a more privacy‑protective mode, where technically supported).

Additional controls

Browser controls: You can also block or delete cookies through your browser settings.

Do Not Track (DNT): The Site does not currently respond to DNT signals; please use the controls above to manage preferences.

8) Data security

We implement technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access. These may include, among others:

Encryption of sensitive data in transit and at rest, where appropriate

Role‑based access controls and least‑privilege principles

Ongoing monitoring, logging, and audits

Staff awareness and training

Regular backups and maintenance

No method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security, but we strive to protect your information in line with legal requirements and industry best practices.

Right of access: to know whether we hold personal data about you and to obtain a copy

10) Children and minors

The Site is intended for individuals aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children or minors. If we become aware that we have collected personal data from a minor without appropriate consent, we will delete it promptly.
