Your information deserves the same respect as your voice.
Privacy is part of dignity, trust and accountability.
We aim to collect only the information we need, use it for legitimate and clearly defined purposes, protect it appropriately and avoid keeping personal information longer than necessary.
Data protection is about people.
Peace of Art works with communities, volunteers, young people, partners, donors, professionals and civil society organisations across different countries.
People interacting with us should understand what happens to their personal information. Our approach is therefore based on transparency, proportionality, responsible access and respect for applicable law.
This page explains how information may be processed when you visit our website, contact us, submit a form, volunteer, subscribe to communications, participate in an activity or otherwise interact with Peace of Art.
Responsible by design.
Personal information should be processed lawfully, fairly and in a way people can understand.
Information should be collected for clear and legitimate purposes.
We seek to collect only information that is relevant and necessary.
Reasonable steps should be taken to keep relevant information accurate.
Personal information should not simply be retained indefinitely.
Appropriate organisational and technical measures should protect information.
One network. Legally independent organisations.
Peace of Art International connects legally registered Peace of Art organisations.
The organisation responsible for processing particular personal data may depend on the activity through which the information was collected.
From collection to deletion.
Ask only for information relevant to a legitimate activity.
Process it for a defined and appropriate purpose.
Limit access according to organisational responsibilities.
Apply reasonable organisational and technical safeguards.
Consider whether information still needs to be retained.
Remove or anonymise information when no longer legitimately required.
Different interactions. Different information.
The information involved depends on how you interact with Peace of Art.
We do not seek to collect sensitive information through ordinary website forms unless it is necessary for a specific legitimate activity and suitable safeguards are established.
Applying to help should not mean giving away your privacy.
Volunteer application information may include your contact details, experience, professional or educational background, interests, availability and motivation.
Access should be limited to people who genuinely require the information for recruitment, human resources, safeguarding, programme management or relevant organisational administration.
Privacy also applies behind the website.
This website operates through Squarespace. Depending on website configuration, hosting, forms, analytics and integrated services may involve processing by third-party service providers.
Hosting, security, website delivery and website forms may involve processing through Squarespace systems.
Non-essential technologies should be subject to appropriate consent where required.
Analytics should be configured in a privacy-conscious and proportionate manner.
Embedded services may be governed by the provider's own privacy terms.
Access should be earned by responsibility.
Peace of Art takes reasonable organisational and technical measures intended to reduce risks of loss, alteration, unauthorised access or disclosure.
No internet-based system can guarantee absolute security. Our responsibility is therefore to review and continuously strengthen our practices.
International network does not mean automatic data sharing.
Peace of Art operates across several countries, but membership in the international network does not mean that all information collected by one Peace of Art organisation is automatically accessible to every other entity.
Personal information should be shared internationally only where there is a legitimate organisational need, an appropriate legal basis and the safeguards required by applicable law.
Where GDPR-protected data is transferred outside the European Economic Area, relevant safeguards under Chapter V GDPR should be considered where applicable.
Your data. Your rights.
Where the GDPR applies, you may have a number of rights concerning your personal information.
Ask whether and how personal information concerning you is processed.
Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal information.
Request deletion where the legal conditions are satisfied.
Request restriction of processing in circumstances provided by law.
Receive certain information in a structured and machine-readable format.
Object to certain processing where the GDPR provides that right.
Withdraw consent for future processing where consent is the legal basis.
Lodge a complaint with a competent data-protection supervisory authority.
We may need to verify your identity before releasing or changing personal information.
Some information requires greater protection.
Children's information
Information concerning children should only be collected where necessary and handled with enhanced attention to confidentiality, security and safeguarding.
Safeguarding →Images are personal information too
Photography, video, testimonials and stories should be handled with attention to consent, dignity, privacy and safeguarding.
Dignity before publicity
Particular care is appropriate where publication involves vulnerable people, children or beneficiaries of assistance.

Tell us when something does not look right.
If you believe information concerning you has been handled incorrectly, you may contact us.
Please provide enough information for us to identify the issue, but avoid sending unnecessary sensitive information through ordinary e-mail.
Personal information is not an organisational commodity.
It belongs to real people who have trusted us enough to interact with our work.
Our responsibility is to use that information carefully, proportionately and transparently.
