In today’s digital world, data is one of your most valuable assets—and also one of your biggest responsibilities. For NGOs and development organisations, particularly those based in Africa and funded by European donors, ensuring data privacy and compliance isn’t just a regulatory requirement—it’s essential for protecting the integrity of your work, maintaining donor trust, and securing your impact.
Why Data Privacy and Compliance Matter for Your Organisation
As an NGO, you handle sensitive data, whether it’s beneficiary information, donor records, or project insights. In an era where data breaches are on the rise, protecting this data is crucial—not just to meet legal requirements, but to uphold your mission’s credibility and reputation.
European donors, in particular, are subject to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which has stringent rules on how personal data must be handled. Failing to comply could lead to costly penalties, loss of funding, and damage to your organisation’s reputation.
