1Information we collect
We only collect information that helps us run our programmes, respond to you and improve our work. This falls into two broad categories:
- Information you give us — such as your name, email address, phone number, message or any details you submit through our contact, volunteer, newsletter or partnership forms.
- Information collected automatically — such as your IP address, browser and device type, pages visited and time spent, gathered through cookies and similar technologies.
2How we use your information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to your enquiries, volunteer sign-ups and partnership requests.
- Send you updates, stories or newsletters where you have asked to receive them.
- Understand how our website is used so we can make it better.
- Maintain the security of our site and comply with legal obligations.
3Cookies and analytics
Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to remember your preferences and to understand site traffic through aggregated analytics. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though some parts of the site may not function as intended.
4How we share information
We do not sell or rent your personal information. We may share it only with trusted service providers who help us operate the website and our communications, or where we are required to do so by law or to protect our rights and the safety of others.
5Data security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information against loss, misuse and unauthorised access. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
6Data retention
We keep your information only for as long as it is needed for the purposes described in this policy, or as required to meet legal, accounting or reporting obligations, after which it is securely deleted or anonymised.
7Your rights and choices
You may ask us to access, correct or delete the personal information we hold about you, and you can unsubscribe from our communications at any time using the link in our emails or by contacting us. We will respond to genuine requests within a reasonable time.
8Children's privacy
Our website is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children without appropriate consent. Photographs of children featured in our work are shared with the consent of their guardians and the institutions we partner with.
9Third-party links
Our site may link to external websites that we do not control. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites, and we encourage you to read their policies.
10Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
