2. What we collect

Applicants: identity and contact details, information about your circumstances needed to assess eligibility, treatment cost information and, with your explicit consent, limited health information relevant to your application.

To assess and process applications for support; to verify treatment plans with providers, with your consent; to process and receipt donations; to respond to enquiries; to meet our legal and accounting obligations; and to improve this website.

4. Sensitive information

Health and fertility information is sensitive personal data. We collect only what is necessary to assess your application, and only with your explicit consent. We never ask for it through our general contact form. If your application passes first review, we will email you to request specific documents. Please send only the documents we ask for. Copies of identity documents are deleted once verification is complete.

5. Who we share it with

Your treating fertility provider, for verification and payment, with your consent. Service providers who help us run PTPF, such as our website host and Paystack, under appropriate data protection terms. Regulators or authorities where the law requires it. We never sell your information, and we never publish your story without your written consent.

6. How long we keep it

We keep information only for as long as we need it. Applications that are not approved are kept for 12 months after the decision, so that you can reapply. Records of funded support are kept for six years after the support ends, to meet accounting and audit requirements. Copies of identity documents are deleted once verification is complete. Messages sent through our contact form are kept for 12 months. Donation records are kept for as long as accounting law requires. Information is then securely deleted.
