I understand your concerns and where you are coming from, but the privacy policy is refreshingly transparent, readable and clear: https://reclaimyourface.eu/privacy-policy/

Some key facts:

- "ECI signatories: your full first and last names, country of residence and date of signature. Depending on the signatory’s nationality, we will also collect a combination of the following data: residence (street, number, postal code, city, country), date of birth, national identity document type and national identity document number." This seems to indicate that the data requested is dependant on the country you live in. So blaming the organization is a bit unfair.

- "Your data will be stored by the group of organisers for a maximum retention period of one month after the submission of the initiative to the European Commission or 21 months after the beginning of the collection period, whichever is the earlier. It might be retained beyond these time limits in the case of administrative or legal proceedings, for a maximum of one month after the date of conclusion of these proceedings." They will remove your data whatever happens.

I've signed the petition and handed over my the equivalent of PESEL. I did that because I understand that if we want to enact change we have to be more than a signature on an online form, we have to be a living breathing person and not just another email-address in a database. They can sweep [e-mail] under the rug rather easily but along with data that proves that I'm a citizen that becomes much harder to do.
