2. Data Protection Officer
The protection of your personal data is very important to us. We process and store personal data confidentially and in accordance with statutory data protection regulations. This website can generally be used without providing any personal data. You have the right at any time to obtain information about your personal data, which we store for the purposes stated below, free of charge, and to request the correction, blocking, or deletion of this data. You can revoke your consent to data processing at any time without any formalities. In the event of violations of data protection law, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Bavarian State Office for Data Protection Supervision.
3. What are personal data?
Personal data is information about the personal or factual circumstances of an identified or identifiable natural person (data subject). This includes, for example, information such as your name, address, telephone number, date of birth, or email address. Information that we cannot link to you (or can only do so with disproportionate effort), e.g., by anonymizing the information, is not personal data.
4. General information on data processing
4.1. Scope
We generally only collect and use personal data of our users to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and our content and services. We use your personal data to process online donations, to set up personal fundraising campaigns, to answer your questions, to operate and improve our websites and applications, and to provide further information about the work and use of donations fromPlanet Bambi Foundation. AWe also collect personal data from applicants within the framework of the requested aid projects.
Otherwise, your data will only be passed on to other third parties if we are legally obliged to do so.
The personal data mentioned here will be deleted after the expiry of the statutory retention periods.
4.2. Legal basis
If we obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of personal data, Article 6 (1) (a) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data.
For the processing of personal data necessary to fulfill a contract to which the data subject is a party, Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations necessary to implement pre-contractual measures.
To the extent that processing of personal data is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 (1) (d) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
If processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the former interest, Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing.
The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for which it was stored no longer applies and there are no statutory retention periods to the contrary. Storage may also occur if this has been provided for by European or national legislators in EU regulations, laws, or other provisions to which the controller is subject. Blocking or deletion of the data will also occur if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.
5. Individual processing operations
You can use most of our website without providing any personal data. For informational use of our website, we only collect the personal data that your internet browser automatically transmits to us, such as:
IP address
Date and time of the request
Time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
Content of the request (specific page)
the amount of data transferred and the access status (file transferred, file not found, etc.)
Website from which the request comes
Browser type / version / language
Operating system and its interface
Language and version of the browser software.
This data is evaluated solely to improve our service and does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about you personally.
However, if you wish to use the services offered on our website, such as subscribing to a newsletter, etc., you will need to provide additional data. Details can be found below in the description of the specific data processing procedures. In particular, personal data is used as follows:
Provision of the website and creation of log files
Our provider automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files within the framework of legal requirements, which your browser automatically transmits to its server. This information includes the browser type and version, operating system used, referrer URL, host name of the accessing computer, time of the server request and the anonymized IP address. This data cannot be assigned to specific individuals. This data is not merged with other data sources and is not passed on to third parties. We reserve the right to review this data if we become aware of concrete indications of illegal use of our website. If the storage purpose no longer applies or if a legally prescribed storage period expires, this data is routinely deleted in accordance with legal regulations. The legal basis for the temporary storage of the data is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
Completion of online donations / payment services and payment procedures
On our website, we offer users the opportunity to make online donations. If a user chooses this option, the data entered into the corresponding form will be transmitted to us and stored. The form is provided by Bank für Sozialwirtschaft AG, Konrad-Adenauer-Ufer 85, 50668 Cologne ("BFS"). Therefore, the entered data is transmitted directly via an encrypted SSL connection to BFS and the technical service providers employed by BFS to provide the form in order to process the donation. The data will not be shared with any other third parties. The following data is collected via the form:
Full name (last name, first name) with salutation (optional title and company name); address (street, house number, city, postal code, country); email address (optional); bank details (IBAN); donation details (recipient, amount, donation/purpose, donation receipt requested)
Additionally for donations via credit card: card type, card number, CVV/CVC security number, credit card validity period.
If you would like a donation receipt, we will process your data to issue and send you a donation receipt.
The collected data is required to process and execute the donation request. The voluntarily provided email address will be used for donation-related communication. The data will not be used for any other purpose. The legal basis for the processing of the data is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR.
The user's IP address is also saved when the form is submitted. We use the IP address to prevent misuse of the donation form. The IP address is used for the purpose of fraud prevention and to prevent unauthorized transactions that harm third parties. The legal basis for processing the IP address is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. For bank details, this occurs after the donation amount has been collected; in the case of a direct debit donation, this occurs after the recurring donation order has been terminated. After a donation receipt has been created and sent (if requested), the address data, like all other entered data, will be stored in accordance with tax retention requirements, but will be blocked for any other use. The IP address additionally collected during the sending process will be deleted after a period of seven days at the latest.
The user has the option to object to the processing of their data at any time. However, please note that if an objection is made, the donation request can no longer be processed as desired.
We use the data you provide for your donation to process your donation, exclusively for internal statistical market research and to send donation receipts, unless you expressly object to this.
