SUMMARY I would really like to donate via debit card but the payment processor settings on your site are way too strict. Apart from my credit card details they insist on getting my email address, my phone number and my home address. Insult to injury: although the request comes from an EU IP address there's a complete disregard for GDPR issues. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Follow the Plasma pop-up link for donation https://kde.org/donate/?app=plasma-donation-request-notification 2. Click on "Donate" from the "One-time donations" panel 3. On "Donate to K Desktop Environment e.V. " Paypal page click on "Donate with Debit or Credit Card" 4. In the next page fill in "Write a note (Optional)" "Card number" "Expires" "Security code" "Given name" "Last name" 5. Click "Agree & Donate Now" OBSERVED RESULT Paypal processor page insists (by changing border colors) that Address line 1 Mailing address is required. City City is required. Phone number Phone number is required. Email Email is required. EXPECTED RESULT Payment processor should have allowed me to pay the same way I pay other goods which is without making other than necessary fields a requirement. Payment processor should have enabled a form where I should have been able to chose how my personal data is processed.

There's other ways to donate, if paypal is not good enough you can always just do a bank transfer https://kde.org/community/donations/others/
