The accuracy of your information
We are conscious of our responsibilities as a ‘data controller’ under the Data Protection Act 1998 and we shall endeavour to ensure that the personal information we obtain and use will always be held, used, transferred and otherwise processed in accordance with that Act and all other applicable data protection laws and regulations.
Personal information is information that can be used to identify you. It can include your name, date of birth, email address, postal address, telephone number, fax number and credit/debit card details. We collect personal information when you donate money, undertake fundraising activities, ask about our activities, register with us on a membership scheme, order products and services (such as publications and email newsletters), or otherwise give us personal information. We only collect your debit/credit card details if you set up a direct debit payment for regular donations to us.
By submitting personal data manually or in electronic form to this website, or by using this site, you give your consent that all personal data you submit may be processed in the manner and for the purposes described below.
If you do nothing other than read pages or download information while using this website, we will capture and store information about your visit. This information will not identify you, it relates to (i) the Internet domain and IP address from which you access the website (ii) the type of browser and operating system you use (iii) the date and time of your visit, (iv) the pages you visit), and (v) the address of the website from which you linked to us (if applicable).
