The Listen Learn Afrika association cares about protecting your personal data. This page explains what data we collect on this site, why, how long we keep it and what your rights are.

Last updated: 28 October 2026.

1. Data controller

Listen Learn Afrika association, SIREN 923151955, Building B, 16 rue des Bourguignons, 93800 Épinay-sur-Seine, France. Contact: contact@listenlearnafrika.fr.

2. Data we collect

  • Contact form: first name, last name, email address, subject and content of your message.
  • Donations by transfer or cheque: name and details shown on the transfer or cheque, amount and date of the donation.
  • Browsing: our host records technical data (IP address, date and time, pages visited) in connection logs, for the security of the site.

We use no audience measurement tool, no advertising and no trackers.

3. Why we use your data

  • To answer your messages — based on your consent, given by ticking the box on the form.
  • To record donations and keep the association's accounts — based on our legal obligations.
  • To keep the site secure — based on our legitimate interest.

4. How long we keep your data

  • Contact messages: as long as needed to handle your request, then no more than 3 years after our last exchange.
  • Donation data: 10 years, the retention period for accounting records.
  • Connection logs: one year at most.

5. Who can access your data

Only the members of the association's board in charge of answering you or managing donations. Our technical providers access it only to run the service: OVH (hosting of the site and email, in France). Your data is never sold or transferred.

6. Third-party services

  • Google Maps: the map only loads if you click “Show the map”. Google may then set cookies and transfer data outside the European Union, under its own privacy policy.
  • Instagram and WhatsApp: our links to these services take you off our site. Their own privacy policy then applies.

7. Cookies

This site sets no cookies, so no consent banner is needed. The only exception is the Google Maps map, which loads only at your request.

8. Your rights

At any time, you can access your data, have it corrected or erased, restrict its processing, object to it, request its portability and withdraw your consent. You can also set instructions on what happens to your data after your death.

To exercise these rights, write to contact@listenlearnafrika.fr or by post to the association's address. We will reply within one month.

If you believe your rights are not respected, you can file a complaint with the CNIL, the French data protection authority: www.cnil.fr.

9. Security

The site is served over HTTPS and form messages are sent directly by email to the association: they are not stored on the site.

10. Changes

We may update this policy. The date of the last update is shown at the top of this page.
