2.2 Use the Principle of Data Minimisation
📉 Only collect what you need. The old saying of less is more applies here, start small and work your way to a more complicated data set.
Stick to:
name_first
email_address
amount_gross
Avoid sensitive data like ID numbers, contact numbers, or card info. Pappr’s design is lightweight by default - focusing only on behaviourally meaningful fields.
This reduces your POPIA risk, simplifies reporting, and improves donor trust.
