Meldpunt Queer collects personal data to register, follow up on, and — where appropriate — provide support or referrals for reports of (suspected) discrimination, intimidation, or violence based on sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, or sex characteristics. In addition, the data may be used to compile anonymous statistics and conduct policy-related research on the nature and scope of discrimination affecting the LGBTQIA+ community.

Depending on the report, the following types of personal data may be collected and processed:

• Contact details: name, email address, phone number, place of residence, age, or date of birth.
• Description of the incident: details of what happened, where, and when.
• Special categories of personal data (only if relevant and with your explicit consent):
  • medical information;
  • political opinions;
  • religious or philosophical beliefs;
  • race or ethnic origin;
  • sexual orientation or gender identity.

.Meldpunt Queer will only request sensitive personal data when it is strictly necessary to handle your report, and always with your explicit consent.

Personal data is not kept longer than necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.

• Reports and related personal data are stored for a maximum of one year after the case has been closed, unless further retention is required due to ongoing procedures or legal obligations.
• Anonymised data may be retained longer for statistical or policy research purposes.

Meldpunt Queer only shares personal data with third parties when this is:

• necessary to process your report (for example, with a legal or social support organisation), and
• you have given explicit consent to do so.

No data is shared with commercial parties or organisations outside the European Union.

Stichting Punt Queer i.o. takes appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against loss, misuse, or unauthorised access.
