Privacy policy
Last updated: 9 November 2026
BIBU Foundation handles personal data with care. This privacy policy explains what data we collect through our website, donations and activities, and how we handle it. We process personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
What data do we use?
When you contact us via our contact form or by email, we use the information you provide, such as your name, email address and message. We use this information to answer your question and handle any follow-up queries. We do so on the basis of our legitimate interests.
When you make a donation, we process the information needed to receive your contribution and account for it administratively, such as your name, bank details and donation amount, insofar as this information is known to us. Statutory retention periods apply to financial information.
We use registration platforms for sign-ups to our events and activities. Personal data, such as your name and email address, is processed to register your sign-up and keep you informed about the activity. BIBU Foundation receives the information necessary to organise and run the activity. For more information about how the registration platform processes data, see the privacy policy of the relevant platform.
Photos and videos may be taken during our activities for reporting and communication on our website and social media. We inform visitors about this at the venue and respect their privacy. Where consent is required, we will ask for it separately. If you do not wish to be identifiable in an image or object to an image being published, please contact us.
We do not retain personal data for longer than necessary, unless a longer retention period is required by law. Data may be processed by service providers who support us with website management, payments and administration. We share data only where necessary and ensure it is appropriately protected.

You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings.
Your rights and contact info
You have the right to access, correct or delete your personal data, insofar as permitted by law. In certain cases, you can also object to its processing, request that it be restricted or transferred, and withdraw consent you have previously given.
