Data Controller

RD is the “Data Controller” of the personal data collected, and is responsible for deciding how personal data is collected, used and disclosed. Organizers may also be data controllers of certain data that you provide to them when you make a contribution to a Campaign or through any other service.

You should be aware that when you provide us with information using a third-party site or platform, the information provided may be collected separately by the third-party site or platform. The information we collect is covered only by the RD Privacy Policy, and the information collected by the third-party site or platform is subject to its privacy practices. The privacy choices you have made on the third-party site or platform do not apply to our use of the information we collect directly through our Site or Services. Please also remember that our Site and Services may contain links to other sites that are not owned or controlled by us and we are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites. We encourage you to be attentive when leaving our Site or Services and to read the policies of other sites that may collect your personal information.

Data you provide to us

We collect information that you provide to us directly, information from third parties and information that we collect by automated means, for example:

  • Registration information that you provide when you create an account or a Campaign, enter a promotion or link your profile on a third-party site or platform with your registration account, such as your first and last name, email address and password.
  • Transaction information that you provide when you request information, contact RD, create a Campaign or make a contribution to one.
