Who we are
CCCF is a Copenhagen-based voluntary, international non – government organization started by a group of passionate long-term community activists that want to give back to their local communities.
Our aim is to increase the value that local grass-roots communities gain from international development initiatives/projects by facilitating commonly not accessible/reached development actors and communities, to gain voice and influence in such initiatives, through outfitting them with exposure, capacity, motivation, and mentorship for long-term sustainability.

Who we share your data with
We do not have registered third parties we share your data with, however, as the internet is many other visitors might stumble on your comments or blog posts from time to time. We always make mention that they should in all circumstances refer to us and the authors as the source of such data for avoiding misuse, but we cannot guarantee that this always happens. Should you encounter misuse of your data through our site, please notify us as soon as possible for us to take relevant corrective action.
How long we retain your data

Additional information
How we protect your data
Since we do not intentionally collect any user data on this website, we are purely dependent on our hosting and CMS prover companies Unoeuro.com and WordPress (and its related services providers) for ensuring that data such as comments are safe through a website like this. We have also taken the necessary steps to turn off automatic further distribution on any personal data (comments etc.) that may be left on this website, to ensure that that data can only be accessed through this site alone.
What data breach procedures we have in place
We have a legal standing service demand with our website hosting and functionality providers to be called on for support should there occur any data breach on our website. It is thus very important to contact us immediately should you discover data breach through our site, so that we can contact our service providers to support us in retrieving such data, or take legal action.
What third parties we receive data from
We do not receive any data from any third parties.
What automated decision making and/or profiling we do with user data
Apart from answering to your comments to our blog posts and in that case following up on the back and forth discussions around these comments, we do not carry out any automated profiling of our users.
Industry regulatory disclosure requirements
Our data policy follows the requirements of the EU’s GDPR – General Data Protection Regulation, alongside those of our service providers Unoeuro and the different CMS.
