We only collect information from you to provide our services. In GDPR terms, we may process personal data where:
(a) we have legitimate interests, (b) processing is necessary to perform a contract (for example, if you register to use our services),
and (c) where required, we rely on your consent (such as for advertising or tracking cookies).
Below is a list of the types of personal data we might process, with typical reasons and lawful bases:
| Personal data type | Why we process it | Lawful basis (GDPR) |
|---|---|---|
| Email address | Account/service communications; essential operations; (where applicable) marketing and analytics | Performance of a contract; Legitimate interests; Consent (where required) |
| Home address | Service delivery; record keeping; (where applicable) marketing | Performance of a contract; Legitimate interests; Consent (where required) |
| Financial details | Processing payments; donations; record keeping; fraud prevention | Performance of a contract; Legal obligation (where applicable); Legitimate interests |
| Employment information | Only where relevant to providing services or processing related requests | Performance of a contract; Legitimate interests |
| Other personal information | Information you provide to help us support you or deliver services | Performance of a contract; Legitimate interests; Consent (where required) |
Note: If we need additional personal data or want to use your data for a new purpose, we will inform you and, where required, seek consent again.
We keep personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide our services and meet legal requirements.
Retention periods depend on the service, lawful basis, sensitivity of the data, and applicable national requirements.
Where we store personal data, it may be pseudonymised or secured using encryption and/or industry-standard access controls,
so only authorised people can access it for legitimate service purposes.
We may use third-party technologies for storage, analytics, and marketing. We take reasonable precautions to prevent personal data from being shared unless necessary
(for example, where a service requires an email address).
Where personal data is shared, we take steps to ensure it is lawful (for example, with consent or legitimate interests) and we reasonably verify that third-party handling
is GDPR-compliant.

A cookie is a small file sent to your device when you visit a website. Cookies can store preferences and other information. You can reset your browser to refuse cookies, but some features may not function properly without them. Cookies can be session-based or persistent, and placed by a first party (the site you visit) or a third party with permission.
Under GDPR, consent must be informed, freely given, and unambiguous. It must be a clear affirmative action (for example, ticking a box) and you must be able to withdraw consent at any time.
An Internet Protocol (IP) address is a number assigned to devices connected to the internet. It can sometimes indicate the approximate location of a connection and may be static or dynamic.
This is the legal reason a company uses to process personal data. GDPR includes six lawful bases: consent, legitimate interests, performance of a contract, legal obligation, public interest, and vital interests.
Processing can have legal effects if it impacts your rights or legal status. “Similarly significant effects” can influence your circumstances, behaviour, or choices, including job prospects or targeted advertising that exploits vulnerabilities.
Information recorded about users that no longer identifies an individual person.
Information that identifies you, such as your name, email address, billing information, or other data reasonably linked to you.
A pixel tag is technology placed on a website or email to track activity (for example, whether an email is opened), often used with cookies.
“Processing” means doing anything with personal data, such as collecting, storing, using, disclosing, or deleting it.
Pseudonymisation is processing personal data so it cannot be attributed to a specific person without additional information, kept separately and protected with technical and organisational measures.
GDPR defines special categories as data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, genetic data, biometric data, health data, and sex life or sexual orientation.
A supervisory authority is an independent public authority responsible for GDPR enforcement. In the UK, this is the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO): Water Lane, Wycliffe House, Wilmslow, Cheshire SK9 5AF. Email: international.team@ico.org.uk, Phone: +44 1625 545 745.
