Grina Foundation uses the information you provide to operate Grina Network. This policy explains the network's data use and your choices.
Information we collect
We collect verified email addresses, personal profile information, organization profiles, organization memberships and roles, selected sectors, category-specific answers, invitations and preferences. We record acceptance on verified entry, withdrawal and important administrative actions. Details matching your verified email in an existing registration, youth application or organization contact record can populate your profile. Linking an organization contact record does not assign organization ownership. Administrators may correct and complete member records; these changes are recorded as admin actions. Verification and consent records include relevant timestamps and limited technical information such as IP address and browser identification.
Existing records
After verifying your email, you can review matching event registrations, youth applications, delegate records and organization contacts. A connection is created only when you explicitly confirm it. Joining the network does not modify historical payment, registration or programme decisions.
How information is used
Information supports account access, organization membership, network administration, relevant opportunities and programme assessment. Operational messages include verification codes and invitations. Promotional network updates use your separate email preference.
Who can see information
Authorized Grina administrators can access information needed to operate the network. An organization owner and its administrators can manage that organization's profile, invitations and member contacts. Ordinary organization members see the shared organization profile and member names/roles, not colleagues' private phone numbers or personal profile answers.
There is no member directory and no private member-to-member or organization chat. Your profile-visibility choice controls whether your name and photo or a private member alias appear in community contributions. Email addresses, phone numbers and private profile answers are not shared in community responses. Approved organization profiles and selected showcase information may be viewed publicly.
Projects and Grina support
New topics, posts, galleries, organization profiles, project proposals and progress updates remain under review until Grina approves publication. Ordinary replies in approved community topics appear immediately. Exact site coordinates, site addresses and financial evidence stay private to the submitting project team and authorized Grina reviewers. Revenue summaries become public only if you choose to publish them and Grina approves. Private support conversations are visible only to the participating member and authorized Grina staff. Browsers and operating systems control notification display and sound.
Your choices
Edit your profile, change your visibility or promotional-email preferences, leave an organization or withdraw membership. Withdrawal disables membership without erasing historical programme records. In My Profile, the Danger Zone lets you request permanent deletion after a fresh email code and separate confirmation. An invitation recipient can verify their email and request deletion without creating a Network account.
Retention and requests
Limited consent, invitation, source-link and audit records are retained to document your choices, resolve disputes and protect the service. Expired verification records are cleaned up automatically. Contact Grina Foundation through its official support channels to request access, correction, deletion, or information about retention and service providers. Verified deletion removes the Network account, eligible personal files, subscriptions and sessions, and anonymizes eligible connected records. Shared organizations and protected event/payment records are preserved as explained before confirmation. Unrecognized connected sources require review; a request is not marked complete while required work remains. A non-reversible email hash prevents future marketing invitations. Protected backups expire under Grina’s retention policy and must be reconciled before restoration. Minimal administrative deletion references remain without the erased profile information.
