Data processing is carried out in accordance with Articles 5 and 6 of the GDPR.
Once the collected data is no longer required, it will be deleted, unless statutory retention obligations apply.
Contact Forms, Newsletter, Donations, and Donation Receipts
Data submitted through our contact form is stored in order to process your request and facilitate future communication. This data will not be shared without your consent.
To send our newsletter, we require your email address. Any additional information is voluntary and will not be collected unless provided voluntarily. Your data will be used exclusively for sending the newsletter.
When making donations through the website, the donor’s first and last name must be provided in order to complete the transaction successfully. Additional information may be provided voluntarily. Personal data is used solely for the association’s financial accounting purposes and, upon the donor’s request, may also be made public.
The processing of the submitted data is carried out exclusively on the basis of your consent (GDPR, Art. 6). You may withdraw your consent at any time by sending an informal email request. The legality of data processing carried out prior to the withdrawal remains unaffected.
Submitted data will remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. Mandatory legal provisions, particularly statutory retention periods, remain unaffected.
Consent to Photo and Video Documentation and Publication
Public events organized by Manzoul e.V. may be documented through photography and, in some cases, video recordings. This may include photographs and videos of participants.

Accordingly, we have a legitimate interest in creating and using such recordings (GDPR, Art. 6). By registering for a public event or seminar, participants explicitly consent to being photographed and/or filmed and to the use and publication of such material for the purposes described above.
Within the framework of our project activities, project beneficiaries also consent that they may be identifiable in photographs or videos taken during participation in our activities. Photographic and video materials may additionally be shared with project partners and donors/funding organizations, who may also use them for the aforementioned purposes.
