Contact with donors
If you register as a Mama Cash donor, we record the personal data you provide in our donor records system. New donors receive a welcome message from Mama Cash by post or via email confirming the donation. Mama Cash informs its donors about its campaigns via our newsletter, by email, post and/or telephone. Mama Cash is a foundation that is completely dependent for its income on donations from institutional donors and private individuals.
Our records system also contains personal details of our contacts. A contact is someone who is known to Mama Cash (for example, because they have taken part in a campaign, have subscribed to a newsletter or have requested information), but is not a donor.
Changing, viewing or deleting data
If you have questions about the processing of your personal data, if you want to know which personal data Mama Cash processes, or if you want to change or delete your data, please contact us here. Mama Cash is required to request proof of identity before we can allow you access to the personal information we hold in our records, also when you wish to delete your data. Some data cannot be deleted immediately by Mama Cash. For example, in the case of a financial relationship (donation) and due to the tax retention obligation of seven years.
How long do we keep your data?
Your personal data will not be kept longer than necessary. Some data are stored because this is necessary due to a financial and/or fiscal obligation. Our aim is to destroy personal data as soon as these data are no longer necessary to us to achieve our goals.

This is a protocol that guarantees secure communication over the internet and that is designed to prevent eavesdropping, interference or falsification of messages.
