Non-profit organizations working towards noble causes must prioritize the security of processed data, particularly when handling sensitive personal information. Our client, a non-profit supporting Ukrainian refugees through financial aid, faced the challenge of ensuring full GDPR compliance while implementing its assistance programs. The organization needed to adapt its application tools for collecting requests to meet GDPR requirements and establish clear collaboration rules with IT service providers and international project co-organizers.
Our team of data protection experts tailored the online application platform for collecting requests by incorporating required informational clauses and consent forms for lawful data processing. We developed comprehensive documentation for employees, volunteers, and partners, including data processing agreements and co-administration contracts, which clearly defined each party’s responsibilities. Additionally, we conducted a Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) and ensured the documentation was translated to be accessible to both refugees and international partners.
With our support, the organization successfully conducted multiple editions of its assistance programs in full compliance with data protection regulations. Transparent procedures and appropriate clauses enabled the safe and lawful processing of applications, enhancing the trust of beneficiaries and partners in the organization.
Without our assistance, the client would have struggled to quickly adapt processes to GDPR requirements, risking sanctions and a loss of trust. Our firm provided end-to-end support at every stage of the project, enabling the organization to focus on its humanitarian mission without concerns over data protection compliance.
