Basic concept of sending and receiving data with BLE

[Soojin]

HI!
I've done the basic Blinky and UART examples, and now have to move on to programming something on my own.
( I have to send EEG signals from one BLE board to another/notebook )
And before that I'm trying to fully understand the basic structure and concept of BLE communication. 
I've heard that when sending and receiving data with BLE, nRF52840 DK have a structure and a parameter of its own.

Can someone check if I'm understanding things correctly? 

1. Sending data > Writing data in the GATT server. (Slave, Peripheral, GATT server)

2. Receiving/Reading data > Reading data from the GATT server (Master, Central, GATT client )

3. So if I want to send data from one BLE to another(without using UART or NUS), I need codes to make a service of my need. (I'm not sure if this is the right way to say it)

Additionally, I have one concept that I find confusing 

4. What exactly is a 'handler'? Can I understand it as some kind of function??

Always thank you all for your help:)

Please see the data transfer:

Not sure what kind of data you want to send over BLE. Hope this ble-services-a-beginners-tutorial might help.

It is a function for handling events from the module.
