PROTECTING BENEFICIARY PRIVACY - PRINCIPLES AND OPERATIONAL STANDARDS FOR THE SECURE USE OF PERSONAL DATA IN CASH AND E-TRANSFER PROGRAMMES This paper address risks inherent in the use of
beneficiary data by agencies engaged in the delivery of cash with a focus on e-transfer programmes. CONTENTS * Abstract * Citation * Link ABSTRACT The use of electronic transfers
(e-transfers) in cash transfer programming has grown in the humanitarian sector and is increasingly recognised as an effective and efficient intervention in certain emergency contexts.
Following recommendations made in Cash Learning Partnership research in 2011 on e-transfers ‘New Technologies in Cash Transfer Programming and Humanitarian Assistance’ and demonstrated
interest from the CaLP community of practice; CaLP has undertaken an additional 3 pieces of work in this thematic area in 2013, of which this is one. The other 2 pieces include the
development of e-transfer guidelines and a study of factors affecting the cost-efficiency of e-transfers compared to more manual methods. These principles and operational standards aim to
enable agencies to meet and respect these international standards and in particular to address risks inherent in the use of beneficiary data by agencies engaged in the delivery of cash with
a specific focus on e-transfer programmes. There are 2 annexes: * Annex 1: Model privacy impact assessment and * Annex 2: Model clauses for contracts with third parties CITATION Cash
