How we store and process your data
We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.
We keep basic information about our supporters and customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial and Transaction Data) for six years. In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data: see below for further information. 
Your personal data will be stored and processed in the Netherlands. For sponsors and regular donors we also employ a bespoke Customer Relationship Management (CRM) database to manage their sponsorship and donations. The database server is located in the United States. Please note that the Watoto sponsorship department in Uganda has access to this database. Your data will be stored as described here or until you request removal of your personal data from our system. 
We use recognised third parties to take payment, manage our company accounts and provide banking services.  We will store transactions, payment (this does not include payment card data) and order data for up to 7 years or for as long as required by Dutch financial and company regulations. These third parties may operate outside the EU.
We will only use your personal data when legally permitted. Article 6.1 of the GDPR states that “processing shall be lawful only if and to the extent that at least one of the following applies: 
  1. the data subject has given consent to the processing of his or her personal data for one or more specific purposes
  2. processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract
  3. processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the controller is subject
  4. processing is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person
  5. processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller
  6. processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data, in particular where the data subject is a child”
Set out below is a description of the ways we intend to use your personal data and the lawful basis (as set out above) on which we will process such data. We have also explained what our legitimate interests are where relevant. We may process your personal data for more than one lawful basis, depending on the specific purpose for which we are using your data.
