For farmers

What is kept

Your name, village, phone number and the outline of your farm. If you are in India, your Aadhaar number is also kept, stored in a scrambled form that only the organisation's administrator can open. Your consent, and a statement about your right to use the land and about work on your farm, are recorded with the date.

Why

Buyers in the European Union must show that coffee, cocoa and other crops they buy were not grown on land cleared of forest after 2020. The outline of your farm is what lets satellite data be checked against your land.

Your rights

• You can ask to see what is kept about you.
• You can ask for a mistake to be corrected.
• You can ask for your details to be deleted. Your name and contact details are then removed. Evidence that a buyer already holds is not changed.
• You can take back your consent at any time. Your farms are then left out of new lots.

Ask the organisation you sell to, or write to us.
