What data we collect and why
On various occasions when you are making a donation to us, offering to volunteer, registering for an event or support us in other ways, we will always ask you for some important details such as your full name and full contact details so we can process your request or communicate with you.
However, sometimes if it is appropriate, we may ask you some further questions so we can understand more about you and so we can communicate with you about any products or services that you ask for as to improve our service to you. These details aren’t always required to fulfil a transaction but do provide helpful.
- Your date of birth
- Why you are making the donation and who you are making the donation in aid of, if required
- Other things that you may wish to hear from us about
If you are registering for an event, we may ask you additional questions which are mandatory as part of the registration process. These questions may include dietary requirements and medical information which are required to ensure we can deliver an event which is fun, enjoyable and also safe to all supporters who are taking part.
