Privacy Statement

What this notice covers

This notice describes how Stichting Seva Europa ("Seva Europa", "we" or "us") processes your personal data. We are an independent Dutch foundation established in 2026 and registered in The Hague (KvK 42071667, RSIN 869577360). It applies when you interact with us through our website, make donations, sign up for communications, take part in campaigns or events, engage with us on social media, or otherwise communicate with or support us. It also describes your data-protection rights and how to exercise them.

Personal data we collect

Data you provide to us directly:

• Identifiers & contact information — name, address, postal code, email address, country of residence
• Donor & contribution information — donation amount, frequency, and date
• Payment details — payment method, transaction reference
• Communication information — emails, contact-form submissions, inquiries and other correspondence
• Event & campaign data — event registrations
• Social-media interaction data — public profile information and interactions when you engage with our social-media pages

We may also receive limited data indirectly — for example, confirmation and transaction details from our payment provider when you donate, and public profile or interaction data from social-media platforms.

How we use your data and our legal basis

We use your personal data only for the purposes and legal bases below, and share it only with the recipients described.

International transfers

Where we transfer personal data to countries without an EU adequacy decision, we put appropriate safeguards in place, including the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses. You can request a copy of the relevant mechanism using the contact details below.

Your choices and rights

You have the following rights over your personal data:

• Access — Receive a copy of your personal data
• Rectification — Correct inaccurate or incomplete data
• Erasure — Ask us to delete your data in certain circumstances
• Restriction — Ask us to halt processing in certain circumstances
• Objection — Object to processing based on our legitimate interests, including direct marketing
• Data portability — Receive or transfer your data to a third party where technically feasible

Where we rely on your consent, you may withdraw it at any time, without affecting processing carried out before withdrawal. These rights may be limited in certain circumstances.

If you have unresolved concerns, you may complain to a data-protection authority — in the Netherlands, the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens — in your country of residence or where the issue arose.

How long we keep your data

We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes it was collected for, unless a longer period is required by law. Data processed to perform a contract is kept for the duration of the relationship plus any applicable limitation period; data processed for marketing is kept until you withdraw consent or opt out, plus a short period to action your request.

Cookies and tracking

Our website currently uses only the strictly necessary cookies required for it to function, and does not use analytics, advertising or other non-essential cookies or trackers. If we introduce non-essential cookies in future, we will ask for your consent (where required), provide a cookie banner, and update this notice.

Updates to this notice

We may update this privacy notice from time to time, and will provide a new notice when we make substantial changes.
