Izindlovu Fund keeps the personal data they process as up-to-date as possible and deletes or corrects them where necessary.
Processing & transferring data
Izindlovu Fund primarily processes the personal data itself (both internally and externally for information and communication purposes).
Izindlovu only passes on data to partners if this is necessary for certain services to run smoothly. Only the strictly necessary data will be communicated. Izindlovu Fund also passes on personal data to external partners, but only to the extent that this is necessary for the performance of its activities.

The transfer of personal data to foreign parties, also outside the EU, is possible if this is absolutely necessary for the execution of agreements and performances. If Izindlovu Fund transfers personal data to someone outside the EU who is not on a list of ‘safe countries’ (within the framework of the GDPR), it will enforce the appropriate security safeguards for this to the extent possible.
Izindlovu Fund shall ensure as much as possible that the external partners who process personal data for it or who are (jointly) responsible for the data processing, comply with the provisions of the GDPR.
