The International Peace Bureau (IPB) and its Youth Network (IPBYN) are committed to maintaining all personal data of its supporters, and members (organizational and individual) working in partnership in a secure manner, in line with current legislation.
We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. Our Privacy Policy is under constant review and is updated and strengthened periodically.
This Privacy Policy was published on May 24th, 2018. All updates and amendments are effective immediately.
What data do we collect and how do we use it?
IPBYN collects supporters’ data in order to keep records of campaigning or donating activity and to update followers and members with information about our projects and outputs via our newsletter. This includes personal data such as names and email addresses. Our members provide us their information by subscribing to the newsletter or the mailing list, filling out the contact form, or otherwise sending us the data explicitly. The data is held in our data bases in the Berlin office and the financial data in Geneva, where the treasurer is located. Personal data linked to donations via the IPB website is processed by Paypal. For further information, read the IPB’s Privacy Policy.
IPBYN does not:
- sell nor buy any mailing or marketing lists;
- employ any cold calling techniques asking for donations;
- keep records longer than legally necessary.
