We endeavour to ensure that your personal data will be processed in accordance with the GDPR and that:

  • it will be processed fairly and lawfully;

The Foundation may collect the following data:

Information about you - we may collect personal information from you when you:

  • enquire about the website, our programmes and services, opportunities and/or about the Foundation;

  • request or share your information through the website;

  • contact us through the website, or any other channel including social media;

  • attend Foundation programmes or events in any capacity including but not limited to as a delegate, student, sponsor/donor representative, educational institution staff member, event supplier, invited guest, nominated visitor.

 

This personal information may include but is not limited to the following information about you:

  • your name (including your first name(s) and surname);

  • your job title;

  • your email address

  • your postcode;

  • your phone number;

  • other details about you that you or others provide to us;

  • video footage and photos of you.

 

We may also ask for or collect some non-personal information from you.

 

How do we use this information?

 

Your personal information will only be used by us to:

  • process your requests;

  • respond to your questions or comments;

  • prepare proposals about the Foundations programmes and services;

  • provide or administer activities relating to the Foundation’s  programmes and services;

  • provide you with information relating to the Foundation, the website or our programmes and services, or that we feel may be of interest to you;

  • maintain our organisational records;

  • carry out anonymised or pseudonymised research, including evaluation carried out for us by another organisation or to prepare reports.

  • contact parents or guardians, where their contact details are provided, for the purposes of obtaining consent, communicating information about a student’s participation in the Programme, or responding to queries relating to the Programme;

  • contact former student participants once they have reached the age of 18 to invite voluntary feedback, evaluation or alumni engagement relating to the Programme. Any such contact will be optional and consent will be confirmed with the individual at that time.

​

Who will we share your data with?

 

The Foundation will not sell or distribute your personal information to third parties. We will only share personal information where it is necessary for the delivery and administration of our programmes, where we have your consent, or where we are required to do so by law.

 

We may share relevant information with partner organisations involved in the delivery or administration of the Programme, including schools and programme delivery partners.

 

In some cases, anonymised or pseudonymised information may also be shared with organisations carrying out research or evaluation on our behalf in order to assess the impact and effectiveness of our programmes.

 

You may request details of the personal information we hold about you under the UK GDPR.

We will not transfer your data to any destination outside the European Economic Area (EEA).

 

Legal basis for using your information

 

In most cases, we will only use your personal information where we have your permission or because we need to use it in order to fulfil a request from you (for example, because you have registered your interest in a programme or event).

 

However, there are other lawful reasons that allow us to process your personal information and one of those is called 'legitimate interests'. This means that the reason that we are processing information is because there is a legitimate interest for the Foundation to process your information to help us to achieve our objectives.

 

Whenever we process your personal information under the ‘legitimate interest' lawful basis we make sure that we take into account your rights and interests and will not process your personal information if we feel that there is an imbalance.

 

Some examples of where we have a legitimate interest to process your personal information are where we use your personal information for data analytics, conducting research to better understand who our beneficiaries and supporters are, improving our services, for our legal purposes (for example, dealing with complaints and claims), for accounting purposes.

 

Processing children’s personal data

 

Special consideration must be taken when processing children’s personal data under UK GDPR. 

 

To this end we review our activities to ensure that they are compliant with the new GDPR requirements, and the updated Data Protection Act 1998. The Foundation complies with guidance from the UK Regulator (ICO - Information Commissioner’s Office).

 

We analyse our work to identify where Data Protection impacts on children and young people.  Our processes are then simplified to make sure we collect the minimum amount of personal data that allows the Foundation’s activities to run.  The Foundation works with educational institutions and other organisations, so they take responsibility for data protection where possible.  For example, educational institution staff liaise with those with parental responsibility about data collection and privacy information for young people in their care who are attending events.

 

As part of our programme activities, photographs, video footage, and other media content featuring student participants may be used for promotional, reporting, educational, or informational purposes, including but not limited to our website, social media, printed materials, and presentations.

 

Permission for the use of such media is obtained by the participating educational institutions from the parents or legal guardians of the students involved. It is the responsibility of the educational institutions to ensure that appropriate consent has been secured prior to participation. The foundation acts in good faith based on the assurances provided by the schools and does not independently collect or verify parental permissions.

 

Where consent is not granted, it is the responsibility of the respective educational institutes to inform our foundation and ensure appropriate steps are taken to exclude those students from any photography or filming.

Security

 

All information you provide is stored on our secure servers maintained by our IT Services partner. The Foundation uses the Salesforce CRM database for storing sponsor and donor business contacts data.  From time to time we may also use Google Analytics for traffic tracking activity on our website.
