How long we hold your information for

We will hold your personal information for as long as is necessary to meet the purpose for which it was originally collected.

Where you have given consent for direct marketing, we will stop processing your data once we receive a withdrawal of your consent.

Where we may have collected your personal information to meet a legal obligation (e.g. DBS checks, HMRC, Safeguarding children) we will hold your data in accordance with the retention periods given by legal and regulatory bodies and subject to the exceptions below.

Exceptions: We may hold your personal information for longer than originally collected for archiving, keeping statistical information, to defend or make a legal claim or for as long as a claim may be brought against us or made by us and/or in accordance with legal and regulatory requirements.

Your rights

Right to be informed: You have the right to be informed about the collection and use of your personal data. This Privacy Notice meets this.

Right to access your personal information and rectify it: You have the right to confirm that your data is being processed and to access the information we hold about you. You have the right to have inaccurate data rectified or completed if it is incomplete. You can make these requests verbally or in writing.

We will aim to resolve these requests separately within one month following the date of your access or rectification request or three months if it is complex to provide it.

Where access or rectification requests are manifestly unfounded or excessive we may charge a fee or refuse to respond. Where we refuse to respond we will explain why and you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.

Right to erasure (the "right to be forgotten"): You have the right to render your data unusable by us now and in the future where:

  • Your personal information is no longer necessary for the purposes we originally collected it for;
  • You have informed us that you've withdrawn your consent;
  • You object to direct marketing from us including fundraising approaches;
  • You object to any of the legitimate interests listed in "The purpose of collecting your personal information and the lawful basis"
  • We did not collect your information lawfully in accordance with the Data Protection Act
  • Where we must comply with legal and regulatory requirements

We give emphasis to personal information collected from children where they may have joined social media groups and/or may no longer be a child as they may not have been aware of the risks at the time they may have given consent to us.

You right to erasure may not apply where we hold your information for one of the following reasons:

  • To exercise the right of freedom of expression and information
  • To comply with a legal obligation
  • For the performance of a task carried out in the public's interest or in the exercise of official authority
  • For archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research or statistical purposes where erasure is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of these purposes
  • For the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

Where your right to erasure applies we will aim to provide this request within one month following the date of your request or three months if it is complex to provide it.

Where an erasure request is manifestly unfounded or excessive we may charge a fee or refuse to respond. Where we refuse to respond we will explain why and you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.

Right to object to direct marketing: You have the right object to direct marketing. We will stop processing your personal information purposes as soon as we receive an objection. There is no ground for exemption.
