What Information We Collect About You

We collect information about you when you contact us either by phone, online, paper or email to enquire about the charities services and how we can assist your community.

The information you give us may include your name, address, email address, phone number, payment and transaction information.

How Information About You Will Be Used

In law, we are allowed to use personal information, including sharing it, only if we have a proper reason to do so, for example:

  • To fulfil a contract with you i.e. to provide the service you have requested and to communicate with you about your enquiry and order.
  • When it is in our legitimate interest i.e. there is a business or commercial reason to do so, unless this is outweighed by your rights or interests

We will therefore share your information with:

  • Suppliers of our website
  • Suppliers of the Defibrillator and Safe Cabinet

We have rigorous data protection and security policies in place with all our suppliers.

We will not share your information with any other third party without your consent except to help prevent fraud, or if required to do so by law.

How Long Your Information Will Be Kept For

Unless you request otherwise, we will keep your information to contact you for a maximum of 3 years from when your order was delivered. 

After 3 years we will delete all your personal information, except financial transactions, which we are obliged to keep for 6 years.

Information about unsuccessful enquiries will be deleted after four months.

See our data retention policy for further information.

Access To Your Information And Correction

You have the right to request a copy of the personal information that we hold about you.  This will normally be free, unless we consider the request to be unfounded or excessive, in which case we may charge a fee to cover our administration costs.  

If you would like a copy of some or all of your personal information, please contact Carrie Platts the Trustee on 07515 368046.

We want to make sure that your personal information is accurate and up-to-date.  You may ask us to correct or remove information you think is inaccurate.

You have the right to ask us to object to our use of your personal information, or to ask us to delete, remove or stop using your personal information if there is no need for us to keep it.
