Privacy policy

The Deutsche Kamerun-Hilfe website belongs to Deutsche Kamerun-Hilfe e.V., which is the controller of your personal data.

We have created this privacy policy to describe how we process the information collected by German Cameroon Aid and why we need to collect certain personal data about you. Please read this privacy policy before using the German Cameroon Aid website.

We care about your personal data and are committed to ensuring its confidentiality and security.

Personal data that we collect:

When you visit the Deutsche Kamerun-Hilfe website, we automatically collect certain information about your device, including details about your web browser, IP address, time zone and some of the cookies installed on your device. In addition, we collect information about the individual web pages or products you view, which web pages or search terms led you to the website and how you interact with the website. We refer to this automatically collected information as "device information". In addition, we may collect personal data that you provide to us (including, but not limited to, surname, first name, address, payment information, etc.) when you register to fulfil the contract.

Why do we process your data?

Our top priority is the security of customer data. Therefore, we only process minimal user data to the extent absolutely necessary to operate the website. Automatically collected information is only used to identify potential cases of abuse and to compile statistical information on the use of the website. This statistical information is not aggregated in such a way that it could identify a specific user of the system.

You can visit the website without telling us who you are or revealing any information that could identify you as a specific, identifiable person. However, if you wish to use certain features of the website or receive our newsletter or provide other details via a form, you may provide us with personal data, such as your email address, first name, last name, place of residence, organisation and telephone number. You can choose not to provide us with personal data, but then you may not be able to use all the features of the website. For example, you may not be able to receive our newsletter or contact us directly via the website. Users who are unsure about what information is required are welcome to contact us at info@deutsche-kamerun-hilfe.de.

Please also note that your information may be transferred outside of Europe, including to Canada and the United States.

Links to other websites:

Our website may contain links to other websites that are not operated or controlled by us. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such websites or third parties.

Information security:

We secure the information you provide on computers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorised access, use or disclosure. We take reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards to prevent unauthorised access, use, modification and disclosure of personal information under our control. However, no data transmission over the Internet or wireless networks can be guaranteed.

We will disclose information we collect, use or receive when required or permitted by law, such as to comply with a subpoena or similar legal process, or when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request.
