The following changes went live on 20 October 2022 (iRaiser Premium and iRaiser Forms) and on 18 October 2022 (Digicollect): (Update: some more changes went live on 20 June 2023.

General terms and conditions and privacy.According to the Consumer & Market Authority, general terms and conditions are valid if the consumer knows they apply at the time he or she purchases the service from you. So you must make the general terms and conditions available and clickable in the sign-up and donation flow. - SourceWhen creating an action én when making a donation, Users no longer have to agree to the terms and conditions. You automatically agree to these when making the Donations or when continuing in the flow:As you now also automatically agree to the privacy statement, we have added this to the api as well. This will be automatically saved as consent for newly created Fundraisers after 20 October. For old action starters/donors, this data is not saved retroactively.2. Opt-ins have become soft opt-insNormally, a consumer must give an active opt-in at the time he or she wants to receive a newsletter or to be contacted by phone. The exception to this rule is the concept of 'customer relationship'. Since 1 July 2021, the concept of 'customer relationship' has been broadened for charities. Besides a financialële transaction, a volunteer and event participant is also counted under a customer relationship. In other words, someone who takes action on your behalf may be seen as a customer relationship. For a donor, this was already the case as they completed a financialële transaction. - SourceWe replaced several opt-ins with soft opt-ins for the above reason. Whereas previously you had to tick yourself that you want to be kept informed of News updates, for example, this tick is now already on by default. This also applies to the two different tick boxes aimed at telephone solicitation. Here it is good to know that you, the customer, can change these consent texts yourself in the dashboard. We have turned on the checkmark by default in these places:To keep informedThis is what you will see after making a Donations:b. When entering your phone number in the Sign up flow or DonateWe can turn on the second tick about marketing purposes at your request.c. Newsletter (when donating)3. Indicating whether data may be sharedContact information was shared (at the time it was entered by the donor) with the action starter. As this is not always desirable, we chose to add an additional soft opt-in when making a donation to an action, team, company on Campaign:You, as a donor, can choose not to share details with the initiator of the action. This can be:The action initiatorThe team captainThe company managerThe project managerIf you uncheck this box (which is on by default) then that data is not shared with the action starter. Who will see it returned as Anonymous:In the Excel file, an additional column has been added, at the very end, with 'Share contact information': You as site administrators can still view this data.4. Update 20 June 2023: Adjustment in show first name donorSince 20 June 2023, a change has gone live that relates to the following scenario:- You make a Donation and, when Donating, choose not to share your details with the initiator.Previously, the name on the front end was then always shown as anonymous. With the logic that it's strange not to share your details with the initiator of the action, but that they could then still see at the front end who had donated.We noticed, however, that it raised a lot of questions and confusion among donors. Especially because they were under the impression that showing the name was only linked to the checkbox  "Display my name on the website. "We have now made that showing of name dependent only on the option "Shield my name on the website." If that tick is not turned on, you will see the donor's name on the website.To clarify, we have now changed the text on sharing with the initiator to: "Sharing my contact information with the initiator of this action, so they may send me a thank you, for example."We hope this makes it a lot clearer for the donor. This is a change that took effect from 20 June. Older Donations have not been made visible retroactively. In case you had an old donation where it was indicated that the data should not be shared with the initiator, the check mark at name blocking has now been switched on for each old donation. If you have a donor who wanted this to be shown, you can now change this in the system by looking up the donation and setting the checkmark to 'do not hide'.DigicollectIn the academy of 6-10, the changes were discussed:Digicollect Academy 06-10-202202:45 - Poules 23:45 - Recent updates 30:00 - GDPR changes 35:04 - Digicollect action month 1. General terms and conditions and privacyAccording to the Consumer & Market Authority, general terms and conditions are valid if the consumer knows they apply at the time he or she purchases the service from you. So you should make the general terms and conditions available and clickable in the sign-up and donation flow. - SourceWhen creating a collection box én when making a donation, Users no longer have to agree to the terms and conditions. You automatically agree to these when making the donation or when continuing in the flow:2. Opt-ins have become soft opt-ins outsNormally, a consumer must give an active opt-in at the time he or she wants to receive a newsletter or to be contacted by phone.

This also applies to the two different tick boxes aimed at telephone solicitation. Here it is good to know that you, the customer, can adjust these consent texts yourself in the dashboard.We have turned on the tick by default in these places:When entering the mobile numberWhen creating a collection box, if you enter a phone number both checkboxes for approach for tips or marketing purposes are on by default. We can enable the functionality to show the second tick for you:NewsletterWhen donating, if you leave your email address then opt-in for the newsletter is also already automatically on: 3. Indicate whether data may be sharedContact information was shared (at the time it was filled in by the donor) with the collector. As this is not always desirable, we chose to add an additional soft opt-in when making a Donations: 'My contact information may be shared with the collector.' :If you uncheck this box (which is on by default) then that data is not shared with the collector. It will see them as Anonymous in the automatic Emails:In the Donations overview that a collector can see, the donation can also be seen as anonymous: You as site administrators can still view this data.

This page shows an overview of all donations (including manual and matchfunding) that fall under the level you are currently working on. You can look up specific donations here, see more information about a particular donation and move donations around. You can also make a download of all donations. Article content:OptionsDonations searchPeriodColumnsDownloadInformationManagement optionsManageMoveAnonymiseRemoveOptionsDonations searchIn the search bar (top right), you can search by a name, e-mail address or transaction id. The transaction id is the number that usually starts with T2023 and is a unique number. Through that number, you can quickly trace a donation.PeriodYou can choose to show only donations from a certain period. If you have many donations, or are only interested in recent or older donations, this may come in handy. You select a period by clicking on 'Period'.Then select the desired period:To make navigating the dashboard easier, we save the period selection in the browser, so the next view you view will also have this period pre-selected. ColumnsThere are several columns belonging to the donations:The columns Date, Amount, Payment status and Payment method are clickable. You can filter with these. If you click it again, it will filter in reverse.At the 'Donation on' column, you can hover over it with the mouse. You will then see the level at which the donation was made appear.In the column 'Amount' you will see icons when web shop items, discount codes or rewards are involved. You can recognise donations with a web shop item by the shopping cart. For donations where a discount code was used, you will see a ticket icon and for donations where a reward was chosen, you will see a gift behind the donation. DownloadYou can use the 'Download' button to create a Download of all donations under where you are at the moment. After clicking the button, an Excel file is generated and its link is sent to the e-mail address you are logged in with. If you click on the link (and are logged in) then you can open the Excel file. If you have made a selection you will only see the donations made in that period. The second tab of the Excel file shows the answers to the additional questions. InformationClicking on the i's will show you all the information about the donation:If there is a donation with a reward you will also see this. Here, you can click on the box to indicate that the reward has been processed:Management optionsIf you click on the three dots you will see the options you have with a donation. These are Manage, Move, Anonymise and DeleteManageBy managing a donation, you can change a donor's name, or change a message accompanying the donation (for example, if a donor wants to correct a spelling mistake). You can also hide or make visible the name attached to a donation.MoveIt can happen that a donation has ended up in the wrong place, for example on a team instead of a team member. You can then move it by clicking on the three dots and move and find the place where the donation should go. If there is a registration fee attached to the donation, you cannot move it. You cannot move manual donations either. If you want to move them, you can delete them in one place and add them in another. Finally, you cannot move donations made via matchfunding. You can only do that after the matchfunding donation (which is listed as a manual donation) has been removed.AnonymiseThis option allows you to completely anonymise a donation. The account number information will be removed and you will see 'Anonymous Anonymous (Name Shielded)' as a donor.RemoveYou can only delete donations made with a test checkout. You can delete them via this option. Real donations are always saved.

Match funding is a tool that can be used in both crowdfunding and peer-to-peer fundraising. It allows Companies and Funds to support Fundraisers and campaigns on the iRaiser platform.Content articleGeneralUseType Match fundingStart donationMultiply DonationOutputExcelGeneralTwo forms of Match funding are supported within the iRaiser framework:1. Starter donation2. Multiply DonationsWith the first variant, each new action, Campaign or Fundraiser receives an initial donation of a fixed amount from the company or fund. This could be interesting at a fundraising event (each participant is sponsored with xx euros by company X) or on a crowdfunding platform (each campaign receives an initial donation of €xx from company X).For the second variant, each donation is doubled (or far x-fold) by the company or fund doing the match funding. In both variants, the maximum amount available for the match funding can be set.The donation counter graphically displays the ‘match funding’contribution. Thereby, it can be referred to a page within the platform with more information. Match funding contributions are not subject to variable licence fees charged by iRaiser.Use On request, we can turn on Matchfunding functionality. You can find it then in the dashboard under Menu item 'Settings -> Match funding'. You can enable this at site, Sub site or project level by going to this level, managing it and going to Settings > Match funding and clicking on 'Yes, I want to use Match funding'.Following this, you can fill in the various fields:By organisation (mandatory field)Here you fill in the name of the organisation doing the match funding sponsoringColour You can choose a colour here and this colour will be reflected in the donation counter. Donations message Fill in a message here. This will be displayed with the donation. Suppose you enter "Match funding - Sustainability Fund" here it will look like this at the front end: More info URLTo provide more information about how your crowdfunding and Match funding works, you can create a Menu item (at site or segment level). You can put the url of this behind it. Once an url has been entered, an i will appear next to it where the user can click to read more information.  Type Match funding1. Start donationWith this type of Match funding, the organisation donates the first part of target amount when an action is created, i.e. not when making a donation. After the action is created, a (manual) donation is made directly on this action. You set its amount under Amount. You can optionally set a Maximum amount. Once that amount is reached, no more match funding will be done.An example of this type of match funding can be seen here2. Multiply DonationsThis type of Match funding focuses on Donations, and here the organisation multiplies every donation. After a donation is made, it is multiplied immediately. At Number, you can set how often you want to double the donation.Suppose 100 euros is donatedIf you set once, the organisation will add 100 euros.If you set twice, the organisation will add 200 euros.If you set 3x, the organisation will add 300 euros.If you set 4x, the organisation will add 400 euros.You can also set limits. A limit indicates what the maximum doubling can be. If you have set 4x as the number and a limit of 400 euros, and someone donates 200 euros then the amount the organisation contributes is 400 euros.Also here you can set a maximum amount. If that is reached then the pot is 'used up' and no more Match funding is done.An example of this type of match funding can be seen here.If you have this type of match funding active and you make a manual donation, you have to choose whether to matchfund the manual donation or not: OutputA donation made through Match funding is a manual automatic donation. It looks as follows:Match funding is linked to the original donation. If you delete it then the matchfunding donation will also be deleted. If you move the original donation then the match funding moves with it too.ExcelThe Excel file adds a new type of Payment Method: Match funding. Here see an example of an Excel file with match funding in which the columns not used by matchfunding have been omitted for convenience. Interested in this functionality on your platform?

The iRaiser platform complies with the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) for storing personal data. Managers can use the dashboard to manage, for example, all consent texts displayed in forms that require Users to grant permission by checking a box. Below is general information on how to comply with the GDPR within iRaiser and some general explanation of what the GDPR is.Content of article:IntroductionController versus ProcessorWhat is personal data?What is a special personal data?When is there processing of personal data?General rules for processing personal dataOverview Personal dataExporting personal data: transferWhat are the rights of data subjects?Expressive consentRights of data subjectsRight of accessRight to rectification and completion and/or restriction of processingRight to erasureAt the request of the data subject (end user)On termination of contractRight to data portabilityIntroductionTo safeguard the data of our customers and their Users, we have established privacy and data protection policies within iRaiser.Privacy protection & personal data; General Data Protection RegulationPrivacy protection is regulated by various laws and treaties. The most important is the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which comes into force from 25 May 2018. This is a European regulation (i.e. with direct effect) that standardises the rules for the processing of personal data by private companies and public authorities throughout the European Union. In addition, the Telecommunications Act provides rules on mailings, spam and cookies.Processor versus ProcessorThe GDPR makes a clear distinction between the duties and responsibilities of a so-called Controller and a Processor. iRaiser's customer owns the website and the data acquired with the website. They are the Controller. iRaiser carries out the technical operation of the website and does not do anything with the data without the consent of the customer. iRaiser is in GDPR terms a processor. The powers, duties and responsibilities of us as a Processor in terms of processing personal data are agreed in the so-called Processor Agreement that we conclude with our customers.  What is a personal data?Personal data is any data by which a person can beïdentified. A person can be identified if the person using the personal data can identify the person without making a special effort. This could include name and address data. E-mail addresses, passport photos, fingerprints and, for example, IP addresses are also considered personal data. And data that give a rating about a person, for example someone's IQ.     What is a special-personal data?In addition to ordinary personal data, the law also recognises special personal data. These are data that are so sensitive that processing them could seriously affect someone's privacy. Such data may therefore only be processed under very strict conditions. Special or sensitive personal data include, for example, data that says something about someone's race, religion, health, criminal past or sexual life. Trade union membership and the citizen service number (BSN) are also special personal data.Special personal data is data about someone's:race or ethnic originpolitical opinionsreligion or beliefmembership of a trade uniongenetic or biometric data for the purpose of unique identificationhealthsexual lifecriminal historyAn organisation may not use special personal data unless there is an exception for this in the law. There must be a need to request this data.When is personal data processing?"Processing means any operation involving personal data. The law lists as examples of processing: the collection, recording, organisation, storage, updating, modification, retrieval, consultation, use, provision by means of forwarding, dissemination or any other form of making available, bringing together, linking, blocking, erasing and destroying of data. From this enumeration, it is clear that the processing of personal data is readily apparent. One could argue that everything one does with personal data do falls under processing.General rules for processing personal dataMain rule is that personal data shall only be processed in accordance with the law and in a proper and careful manner. In addition, personal data may only be collected if a precise purpose is given for it. Moreover, the law states that personal data may only be processed insofar as they are adequate, relevant and not excessive.An example from practice is the making of a copy passport.An important obligation arising from the law is the notification that the processor must make to the Personal Data Authority AP. This notification is intended to promote transparency: all notifications made to the AP are included in a public register. Some processing operations do not need to be notified under the law, such as the trade register of the Chamber of Commerce. In addition, the GDPR includes a large number of processing operations that are exempt from notification. For such exempted processing operations, the other requirements of the GDPR simply remain in force. In addition to the general rules mentioned above, a justification ground must be present for any processing of personal data. This is explained below.Conditions for processing personal data: justificationsIn addition to the general rules mentioned above, the GDPR requires that at least ééone of the justifications listed in the law must apply to any processing of personal data. The GDPR has the following bases:ConsentThe data subject (this is the person whose data is being processed) has given his unambiguous consent to the processing. This explicit consent is also called informed consent or informed consent . The processing of personal data of a child under 13 requires the consent of a parent or legal representative. An organisation must make a reasonable effort to verify that consent.Execution of contractData processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party.Legal obligationData processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation.Vital interestData processing is necessary to counter a serious threat to the health of the data subject.Public law taskThe data processing is necessary for the proper performance of a public law task.Justified interestData processing is necessary for the fulfilment of a legitimate interest of the data controller (or of a third party to whom the data are disclosed). This means that the person processing the data must weigh his own interest against the interest and rights of the person concerned. The processor must also check beforehand whether the same result cannot be achieved with less data.Overview Personal dataIn the dashboard, via Administration > Overview Personal data, you can see a complete and current overview of all data processed by iRaiser for the website. This is governed by the concluded Collaboration Agreement or the General Terms and Conditions for the protection of personal data.A distinction is made between the personal data that iRaiser processes by default and the, for this website, specific personal data from set-up forms. You can have an Excel file generated from these via the Download button. This is sent by e-mail to the e-mail address of the site administrator requesting the download and can be retrieved there via a link. If desired, you can also filter the data by:All dataThe additional form data (additional questions)The default data (without the extra questions)Exporting personal data: transferExporting personal data, also known as transmission, is a form of processing personal data. The conditions described above apply to it in full. In addition, depending on the country to which the data is transferred, additional conditions apply.What are the rights of data subjects?The GDPR also grants rights to individuals whose data is processed:Right of inspectionThis right allows everyone to check whether, and in what way, their data are processed.Right of rectification and supplementation and/or restriction of processingWhen someone has used their right of inspection and comes to the conclusion that their data needs to be corrected, they can submit a request to that effect to the data controller.Right to oblivionThe data subject may object to certain forms of data processing, as a result of which the processing of his personal data may have to be stopped.Right to data portabilityThis is the ability to take data from one platform to another platform. The Controller (read: our client) must ensure that these rights are met. We as iRaiser only fill a role in this after consultation and approval from our customer. Thus, we have built functionalities within the iRaiser framework that largely automate the processes for the above rights. This is described in the agreement we enter into with a client.Express consentWhen and Users give permission (consent) for the storage of personal data anywhere within the iRaiser platform, a number of things are stored in the database to be able to resolve any dispute later. This explicit consent is also called informed consent or informed consent.This explicit consent is also called informed consent.The following data will be storedid of the user (to retrieve the information)consent text (which can be managed in the dashboard)date/timeversion number of the general terms and conditionsversion number of the cookie statementversion number of the privacy settingsdata subjects' rightsEvery person whose personal data is stored has a number of different rights under the GDPR legislation to view or delete his/her data. Below we explain how we handle the different rights within iRaiser and what you or the Users can/should do to make use of these rights.Users with an account can log in via the dashboard itself to exercise these rights. One does this by going to Accounts > Data protection when logged in: Following this, they enter the dashboard where everything is explained about their rights and they can request different downloads for each right:  Right of access This right allows everyone to control whether, and how, their data is processed.Procedure UsersUsers can use the dashboard (see image above) to download their own archive containing all their data. After clicking on the button Download my archive , the user receives a message "Archive is being created now. You will soon receive an e-mail containing a link to download your archive." The link in the e-mail is valid for 24 hours.Procedure ClientsWhen a customer addresses you and does not want to or cannot log into the dashboard himself, you (customer) can do so.To do so, go to Accounts > Users and click on the three dots behind the relevant user and go to Data Protection: If a contributor asks this question then a request must be sent by you (customer) in writing on behalf of the requestor(consumer) to iRaiser via iRaiser's support desk.After receiving the request, iRaiser will contact the customer to verify the request. In doing so, iRaiser asks for identification of the customer which is recorded in a logging.After verification of the request, iRaiser will, within 5 working days, collect all the data of the requester (consumer) and bundle it in a password-protected zip file.The password-protected zip file will be sent by iRaiser to the customer by secure WeTransfer.We will send the corresponding password to open the zip file by SMS.Right to rectification and completion and/or restriction of processing When someone has used their right of inspection and comes to the conclusion that their data needs to be corrected, they can submit a request to that effect to the person responsible for data processing; the Controller (read: you as iRaiser's customer of iRaiser). You can already adjust a lot of data yourself via the dashboard at fer the user's request.Should you not be able to change the data via the dashboard please contact support  via a written request on behalf of the applicant(consumer).  After receiving the request, iRaiser will contact you as customer to verify the request. In doing so, iRaiser will ask for identification of the customer which will be logged. After verifying the request, iRaiser will change the data within 5 working days and notify the customer accordingly.Right to erasureUsers with accounts can request the deletion of their personal data themselves. After clicking the "Delete personal data" button, they will receive an email about this and can still withdraw the request within a week. After that, all data will be irrevocably deleted. You as a customer can also trigger this customer request via the dashboard:To do so, go to Accounts > Users and click on the three dots behind the user in question and go to Data Protection.If a user cannot log in themselves or does not have an account, we can do so at the klnat's request. At the request of Data Subject (End User):There are three possibilities for this:The data subject/end user addresses the request to the customer. Customer orders deletion to iRaiser;The affected/end user uses the option for deletion of his/her personal data via the iRaiser Dashboard (option: Data Protection).The affected/end user addresses the request directly to us.iRaiser deletes Personal Data on dedicated servers and any hosted servers and from (internal) mailboxes, and other systems completely and irrevocably within 14 working days after being ordered to do so by customer. Within 30 days, Personal Data will be deleted from backup copyëns and from backup files. Upon termination of contract:If it is established after the end of the contract that the customer possesses all acquired Personal Data, iRaiser will completely and irrevocably delete all Personal Data on dedicated servers and any hosted servers and from (internal) mailboxes within 14 working days of being ordered to do so by the customer. Within 30 days, Personal Data will be removed from backup copyëns and from backup files.Netherly 3 months after termination of the agreement, iRaiser will completely and irrevocably anonymise all acquired Personal Data, whether or not it has received an order to do so from  the customer. iRaiser will inform Customer two weeks prior thereto.The account manager (sales consultant) of the relevant customer is responsible within iRaiser for initiating this procedure. Right to data portabilityWhen a user wants to take their data with them, they can do so by downloading a file containing their data. This works exactly the same as with the Right of Inspection. Procedure ClientsIf a customer contacts you and does not want to or cannot log into the dashboard themselves, you (customer) can do so.To do so, go to Accounts > Users and click on the three dots behind the relevant user and go to Data Protection.If a contributor asks this question then a request must be sent by you (customer) in writing on behalf of the requestor(consumer) to iRaiser.After receiving the request, iRaiser will contact the customer to verify the request. In doing so, iRaiser will ask for identification of the customer which will be recorded in a logging.After verification of the request, iRaiser will, within 5 working days, collect all data of the requester (consumer) and bundle it into a password-protected zip file.The password-protected zip file will be sent by iRaiser to the customer via secure WeTransferPlus.The corresponding password to open the zip file will be sent in a separate email.After verification of the request, iRaiser will contact the customer to collect and bundle all data of the requester (consumer) into a password-protected zip file.Questions?Do you still have questions about the GDPR within iRaiser after reading this information? Then send an email to iRaiser

There are several places where you can enter a target amount. You can set this specifically per level (Website, Sub site, Campaign, Fundraiser, Team). You can set these via Settings >Target amounts. We distinguish between a:Default amountThis amount is shown by default as the target amount when creating a campaign, company, team or fundraiser. But can be changed afterwardsMinimum amountWhen creating a campaign, company, team or fundraiser, you can adjust the target amount, but it cannot be set lower than this amountYou can set this at the website level and for campaigns, companies, teams and fundraisers.WebsiteUnder website, you can set the target amount for the entire site. This will then appear on the homepage with a retrieved percentage. You can also leave the target amount empty. Then no target amount will appear in the counter status. You will also not see a collected percentage.An example of a set target amount of €200000 on the homepage CampaignsThis is where you set the default target amount for campaigns. This is mainly used when site users can create their own campaigns. You can then also set a minimum amount to be entered there. Alternatively, you can leave the target amount blank.CompaniesHere you set the default target amount that companies enter when creating a company. You can leave the target amount blank, but teams must always enter a target amount themselves (it cannot be left blank)TeamsHere you set the default target amount that Teams specify when creating a company. You can leave the target amount blank, but teams must always enter a target amount themselves (it cannot be left blank)FundraisersHere you set the default target amount that Teams specify when creating a company. You can leave the target amount blank, but teams must always enter a target amount themselves (it cannot be left blank) Target amounts based on number of participationsIf you use editions, you can choose to let people who have participated before raise a lower target amount a second time. Depending on the number chosen, the suggested target amount may vary.Example: If you participate for the first time, the minimum target amount is €300. If you participate in this event for the second time or more, the minimum target amount is €250.You can set this at the level where people can subscribe, under Settings > Target amounts. There you can choose a target amount, depending on the number of entries. This way, you can allow participants who have already collected a very high amount once to collect a lower minimum amount the next time. In practice, you often see that they still raise a good amount, while the threshold to participate again and ask for an amount is lower. 

When you click 'Donate', you will be given the choice of who you want to donate to. Depending on how your website is structured, you may be given the following options:Donate to:PersonTeamCampaignSub site (one level above Campaign)Sub siteGeneral Donations (website level)In some cases, it may not be desirable for people to be able to Donate directly to a Campaign or Sub site. And sometimes a general donation is also undesirable. For this reason, this option can be turned off. On Fundraisers and Teams by the way, donations can always be made.You can also donate to a company, but this option is not in the selection screen. To do so, you have to go to the company page first and then click Donate.Turn off donation optionTo turn off the Donations option aa a project page, segment page or general Donations, first go to that level within the dashboard. General Donation hangs under website level, so there you can go directly to Settings > Donate. If you want to turn off the option to donate on a specific Campaign page or Sub site, you first have to manage that Campaign or Sub site and then go to Settings > Donate. You will then see the following:If you uncheck the box then it is still possible to Donate on Campaign and Team pages under that Campaign/segment/general donation. However, you will then no longer be able to Donate on that page itself. So if you set this at the website level, you will no longer be able to make a general donation.If you leave the checkmark on, it is again possible to donate on that page.

Any transaction that is done has a description. If there is no PSP description filled in then it will say Donations <sitename> or Registration fee <sitename>, depending on whether it is a regular donation or one to which registration fee is linked.You can add extra text to the PSP description. This will then appear with the description and either for Donations <sitename> or for Registration fee <sitename>. Example:Here is the PSP description "PSP description with attribute" enteredIn the Buckaroo dashboard (this works the same with other payment providers), this looks like this:A donor will also see this on their bank statement or banking app. Depending on the number of characters filled in, the PSP description will be shown and therefore visible to a donor.You can set the PSP description per level, and in Buckaroo's (or another payment provider's) dashboard you can then search for all donations with that attribute.

General terms and conditions and privacy.According to the Consumer & Market Authority, general terms and conditions are valid if the consumer knows they apply at the time he or she purchases the service from you. So you must make the general terms and conditions available and clickable in the sign-up and donation flow. - SourceWhen creating an action én when making a donation, Users no longer have to agree to the terms and conditions. You automatically agree to these when making the Donations or when continuing in the flow:As you now also automatically agree to the privacy statement, we have added this to the api as well. This will be automatically saved as consent for newly created Fundraisers after 20 October. For old action starters/donors, this data is not saved retroactively.2. Opt-ins have become soft opt-insNormally, a consumer must give an active opt-in at the time he or she wants to receive a newsletter or to be contacted by phone. The exception to this rule is the concept of 'customer relationship'. Since 1 July 2021, the concept of 'customer relationship' has been broadened for charities. Besides a financialële transaction, a volunteer and event participant is also counted under a customer relationship. In other words, someone who takes action on your behalf may be seen as a customer relationship. For a donor, this was already the case as they completed a financialële transaction. - SourceWe replaced several opt-ins with soft opt-ins for the above reason. Whereas previously you had to tick yourself that you want to be kept informed of News updates, for example, this tick is now already on by default. This also applies to the two different tick boxes aimed at telephone solicitation. Here it is good to know that you, the customer, can change these consent texts yourself in the dashboard. We have turned on the checkmark by default in these places:To keep informedThis is what you will see after making a Donations:b. When entering your phone number in the Sign up flow or DonateWe can turn on the second tick about marketing purposes at your request.c. Newsletter (when donating)3. Indicating whether data may be sharedContact information was shared (at the time it was entered by the donor) with the action starter. As this is not always desirable, we chose to add an additional soft opt-in when making a donation to an action, team, company on Campaign:You, as a donor, can choose not to share details with the initiator of the action. This can be:The action initiatorThe team captainThe company managerThe project managerIf you uncheck this box (which is on by default) then that data is not shared with the action starter. Who will see it returned as Anonymous:In the Excel file, an additional column has been added, at the very end, with 'Share contact information': You as site administrators can still view this data.4. Update 20 June 2023: Adjustment in show first name donorSince 20 June 2023, a change has gone live that relates to the following scenario:- You make a Donation and, when Donating, choose not to share your details with the initiator.Previously, the name on the front end was then always shown as anonymous. With the logic that it's strange not to share your details with the initiator of the action, but that they could then still see at the front end who had donated.We noticed, however, that it raised a lot of questions and confusion among donors. Especially because they were under the impression that showing the name was only linked to the checkbox  "Display my name on the website. "We have now made that showing of name dependent only on the option "Shield my name on the website." If that tick is not turned on, you will see the donor's name on the website.To clarify, we have now changed the text on sharing with the initiator to: "Sharing my contact information with the initiator of this action, so they may send me a thank you, for example."We hope this makes it a lot clearer for the donor. This is a change that took effect from 20 June. Older Donations have not been made visible retroactively. In case you had an old donation where it was indicated that the data should not be shared with the initiator, the check mark at name blocking has now been switched on for each old donation. If you have a donor who wanted this to be shown, you can now change this in the system by looking up the donation and setting the checkmark to 'do not hide'.DigicollectIn the academy of 6-10, the changes were discussed:Digicollect Academy 06-10-202202:45 - Poules 23:45 - Recent updates 30:00 - GDPR changes 35:04 - Digicollect action month 1.
