\section{Goals}\label{goals}
-The goal of this bachelor thesis is to assess how donations currently work, and to develop and implement a protocol, that aims to improve and standardize how donations are verified and conducted. The Donau should be implemented as free software.
+The goal of this thesis is to assess how donations currently work, and to develop and implement a protocol, that aims to improve and standardize how donations are verified and conducted. The Donau system should be implemented as free software.
-One of the main goals the Donau aims to protect the donors privacy. The donor should still be able to deduct the donations he made from taxes. He should be able to do so without revealing more information than needed to the tax authority. All the tax authority needs is proof that the donation is legitimate.
+One of the main goals the Donau aims to protect the donors privacy while he should still being able to deduct his donations from taxes. The donor should be able to do so without revealing more information than needed to the tax authority.
-The tax authority should be able to easly verify the donations by scanning a QR-Code.
-This QR-Code is generated by the donor and should contain all the proof needed to deduct the donation from taxes.
-By merging multiple donations throughout the year into a single QR-Code, the donor should have to safeguard only this QR-Code which could be printed out, as a backup measure. Instead of storing multiple different donation receipts on paper which are easly lost. This should be a significant impovement in user convienience for both the donor and tax authority.
+The tax authority should be able to easly verify all donations from a donor by scanning a QR-Code.
+This QR-Code is generated by the donor and should contain all the proof needed to deduct all donations of the year from taxes.
+Because the receipts are centralized in one place of the donors wallet, the donor does not have to worry about storing or loosing the receipts. In addition, by submitting the donation receipts to the Donau the donation receipts should be stored by the Donau. This should be a significant impovement in user convienience for both the donor and tax authority.
-The Donau should prevent donation fraud with fake, expired or third-party donations. It should maintain a list of recognized charites, in order to prevent donations to non charitable organizations. The Donau should keeps track of the income generated by donations for each charity, to enforce donation limits according to local law and to prevent donation fraud.

The goals described above boil down to the following:

-\section{Motivation}
-To be able to donate to a charity and deduct that donation from taxes, it is often required to provide evidence. The donor would have to present said evidence in form of a donation receipt which would include information about both the donor and the charity. The donor may want to keep this information private and only provide a receipt that proves that a certain amount was indeed donated to a recognized charity.

%privacy
There are many reasons why such information can be sensitive and should be hidden from third parties. Both personally and politically this information could be harmful to individuals if not handeled responsably. It is best to reduce and anonymize this information as much as possible, while still having all the necessary information to verify donations and prevent illegal practices.
