This Privacy Policy explains what information we may collect through our website, why we
collect it, how it may be used, how we protect it and the choices available to you.

1. Who We Are
African United “Union fait la force” is a Pan-African movement focused on unity, community
empowerment, education, African heritage, grassroots development and cooperation across
African nations and communities.
For the purposes of applicable data protection legislation, African United “Union fait la force”
may act as the organisation responsible for personal information collected through this website.
2. Information We May Collect
Depending on how you interact with our website, we may collect information such as:
● Your name.
● Email address.
● Telephone or other contact details.
● Information you provide through enquiry, membership, volunteering or other online
forms.
● Information relating to donations or support, where applicable.
● Messages, enquiries or other communications you send to us.
● Information provided when you subscribe to updates or communications.
● Technical information such as IP address, browser type, device information and website

Please only provide information that is relevant to your interaction with us.
3. How We Use Your Information
We may use personal information to:
● Respond to enquiries and requests.
● Communicate with supporters, members, volunteers or other individuals who engage
with our organisation.
● Process donations or other transactions where applicable.
● Provide information about our activities, initiatives and campaigns where you have
requested or permitted such communications.
● Manage participation in events, programmes or community activities where applicable.
● Improve our website, services and user experience.
● Maintain website security and prevent misuse.
● Maintain appropriate organisational and administrative records.
● Meet legal, regulatory or compliance obligations.
● Protect the rights, safety and legitimate interests of our organisation and others.

We will not use personal information for purposes that are incompatible with the reason it was
originally collected unless permitted or required by applicable law.
4. Legal Basis for Processing
Where applicable data protection legislation requires a lawful basis for processing personal
information, the legal basis may include:
● Consent: where you have given permission for a specific use of your information.
● Contract or requested service: where processing is necessary to provide something
you have requested.
● Legal obligation: where we are required to process information to comply with the law.
● Legitimate interests: where processing is necessary for legitimate organisational
purposes and those interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms.
Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw that consent where applicable.
5. Communications
If you choose to receive updates from us, we may use the contact details you provide to send
information about our organisation, initiatives, events, educational activities, community work
and other relevant developments.
You can unsubscribe from non-essential communications at any time by using the available
unsubscribe option or contacting us.
We will not treat opting out of marketing communications as a reason to deny services or
respond to legitimate enquiries.
6. Donations and Payments
Where online donations are available, payment information may be processed by a third-party
payment provider.
We may receive limited information necessary to identify and record a donation, such as your
name, email address, donation amount or transaction reference.
We do not intend to store full payment card details on our own website unless expressly stated
and appropriately secured.
Third-party payment providers process information according to their own privacy policies and
terms.

7. Cookies and Similar Technologies
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to ensure that the website functions
correctly, understand how visitors use the website and improve the overall experience.
Some cookies may be essential to website functionality, while others may be used for analytics,
preferences or other purposes.
Where applicable, you will be given appropriate choices regarding non-essential cookies.
You can also manage cookie settings through your browser. Disabling certain cookies may
affect some website functionality.
8. Third-Party Services
We may use trusted third-party providers to support website hosting, security, analytics,
communications, payments, forms or other website functions.
Where these providers process personal information on our behalf, we expect them to handle
that information in accordance with applicable data protection requirements and appropriate
contractual safeguards.
Third-party services may also have their own privacy policies, which we encourage you to
review.
9. Sharing Personal Information
We do not sell personal information.
We may share information where reasonably necessary with:
● Service providers supporting our website and operations.
● Payment providers where applicable.
● Professional advisers or other authorised service providers where necessary.
● Relevant authorities where we are legally required to do so.
● Other parties where disclosure is necessary to protect individuals, prevent fraud or
address security or legal concerns.
We only seek to share information that is reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose.
10. International Data Transfers
Some of our service providers may operate outside the country in which you are located.

Where personal information is transferred internationally, we will take appropriate steps required
by applicable data protection law to ensure that the information receives an appropriate level of
protection.
11. How We Protect Your Information
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information
against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.
However, no internet-based service can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You should
therefore avoid submitting highly sensitive information through general website forms unless
specifically requested through a secure process.
12. How Long We Keep Information
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for
which it was collected, including where necessary to meet legal, accounting, reporting or
organisational requirements.
Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and why it is being processed.
When information is no longer required, we will take appropriate steps to delete, anonymise or
securely dispose of it where applicable.
13. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on the data protection laws that apply to you, you may have rights relating to your
personal information, including the right to:
● Request access to personal information we hold about you.
● Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
● Request deletion of your information in certain circumstances.
● Ask us to restrict certain processing.
● Object to certain types of processing.
● Request portability of information where applicable.

● Complain to the relevant data protection authority.
Some rights are subject to legal conditions and exceptions.
14. Children’s Privacy

Our website is not intended to knowingly collect personal information from children without
appropriate involvement, consent or safeguards where required by applicable law.
If you believe that a child has provided personal information to us in circumstances where this
was not appropriate, please contact us so that we can review the situation.
15. External Links
Our website may contain links to external websites, social media platforms and other online
resources.
Once you leave our website, this Privacy Policy no longer governs how those third parties
process your information. We recommend reviewing their individual privacy policies before

requirements change.
