GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF USE OF THE STUDENT SPONSORSHIP PLATFORM

Procedure

When you register as a student or sponsor, the information provided on the form is analyzed by an algorithm. The algorithm then selects the best match according to your criteria. You'll receive an e-mail with your partner's contact details, and you'll need to contact him or her yourself.

As soon as you receive the sponsorship e-mail, we consider the sponsorship to be established. Thereafter, we will send you e-mails every six months to check whether your sponsorship is still in progress. You can let us know if your referral has been completed via your Ôpe account.

If you are a student and your sponsorship has ended, we will delete your data from our database. If you are a sponsor, your data will only be deleted if you indicate via your account that you no longer wish to sponsor students. Otherwise, your data will be kept for future sponsorships.
