General information on data processing 

Below, we provide you with general information regarding the processing of your personal data when using the The Dons – Goals For Good app (referred to below as the ‘app’).

It is important to understand that the collection and use of your personal data will depend on how you interact with us or the services you use. We only collect, use or share your personal data under Art. 6(1) (a) UK GDPR, Art 6(1) (b) UK GDPR,  where we have a legitimate purpose and a legal basis for doing so.

 

3.1 What do we mean by ‘legal basis’? 

Summary: We only process your personal information when we believe it is necessary and we have a valid legal reason (called legal basis) to do so under applicable law, like with your consent, to comply with laws, to provide you with services to enter into or fulfil our contractual obligations, to protect your rights, or to fulfil our legitimate business interests. Sections 5, 6, 7, and 8 outline the particular legal basis to process specific information. 

Consent under Art. 6(1) (a) UK GDPR:  You have given the Data Controller your consent to process your personal data for the specific purpose explained to you. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. To do so please contact the Data Controller via the details supplied above. 

Contract under Art 6(1) (b) UK GDPR:  Data needed to fulfil a contract you have with the Data Controller.

Summary: We may transfer, store, and process your information in countries other than your own. Sections 6, 7, and 8 outline more detailed information on data sharing and international transfers. 

As explained throughout this Privacy Policy, our data processor uses a number of services and sub-processors (see section 6 and 7) to help us deliver the app and keep your data secure. To provide the app and/or its services, it is necessary for us to share some of your personal data with them. 

Where your personal data is shared outside the UK, we ensure that your personal data is given an equivalent level of protection, either because the jurisdiction to which your data is transferred has an ‘adequate’ data protection standard according to the UK Government, or by using another safeguard including the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses for transfers of personal information between our group companies, and between us and our third-party providers as well as other contractual agreements i.e. International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA). These clauses require all recipients to protect all personal information that they process originating from the EEA or UK under equivalent UK/European data protection standards and regulations. 

You can request a copy of such contractual agreement concluded with our service providers by emailing [email protected] or contacting If Give Limited through any of the contact details provided above. We have implemented similar appropriate safeguards with our third-party service providers and partners and further details can be provided upon request.

Sub-processors and infrastructure providers

Summary: We use certified, GDPR-compliant sub-processors and infrastructure providers to offer our platform and services. 

6.1 Content delivery network, provided by Cloudflare

Summary: This app uses Cloudflare Inc.'s services for security, performance, and reliability. Their data processing follows GDPR standards, mainly handling customer-controlled data. For secure data transfers, Cloudflare complies with the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield. 

6.1.1 Overview 

We utilise Cloudflare, a US-based company specialising in security, performance, and reliability services globally, with multiple European offices. It ensures secure data transmission (SSL), enhances app performance via Content Delivery Network (CDN), protects against DDoS attacks, and fortifies security with the Web Application Firewall (WAF). Cloudflare may employ cookies for these services, and we've established a GDPR-compliant contract for data processing. For further GDPR-related details, visit Cloudflare's GDPR pages.

 

6.1.2 Processed data

Cloudflare processes data based on what app operators control, varying with the services used. It doesn't retain customer content for popular services. Customers are responsible for their data compliance and transmissions. Most data in Cloudflare's network remains on their servers, with metadata processed in US and European data centres.

Log data regarding network events is maintained, containing minimal personal info like IP addresses, and processed for a limited time. For security, Cloudflare employs cookies like (__cfduid) to identify users and apply security settings, yet it doesn't store personal data and is necessary for security features.

Cloudflare collaborates with third-party providers under strict instructions, ensuring personal data isn't shared without explicit consent.

 

6.1.3 Legal basis

The legal basis of the processing is your consent according to Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR unless indicated differently in the different processing activities set out above. If you do not want Cloudflare to collect and process the aforementioned data, you can refuse your consent or withdraw it at any time with effect for the future.

 

6.1.4 Retention period

Cloudflare retains data logs briefly, usually deleting them within 24 hours. Personal data like IP addresses isn't stored, but certain information is kept indefinitely for Cloudflare Resolver's performance and security identification purposes, detailed in their permanent logs. All collected data, temporary or permanent, undergoes a process to remove personal information. Cloudflare anonymises permanent logs. Their privacy policy states they aren't responsible for received content, directing inquiries about content updates or deletion to the app operator.

 

6.1.5 Third-country transfers

The vast majority of data that transits Cloudflare’s network stays on Cloudflare’s Edge servers. Metadata about this activity is processed on behalf of the data controller in data centres in the United States and Europe.  Cloudflare is an active participant in the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework which regulates the correct and secure transfer of personal data. You can find more information at www.privacyshield.gov/participant. 

 

6.1.6 Provision mandatory or required

The provision of your personal data is voluntary, based solely on your consent. If you prevent access, this can lead to functional limitations on the app.

 

6.1.7 Further inquiries or withdrawal of consent

To prevent data collection and processing by Cloudflare when accessing websites provided by our sub-processor, you can deactivate script code execution or use a script blocker in your browser. You can also adjust your settings to prevent cookie storage, though it might limit app functions. To request data deletion please contact Cloudflare through one of the following methods:
