Privacy Notice

Introduction

This document explains how we, the 23 Foundation, uses data about individuals. The majority of the data has been gathered from supporters and donors wishing to purchase our unique signed items. Most of them have asked to be put on a mailing list for future product releases.

Why do we need your information?

The 23 Foundation is committed to helping and supporting as many children and their families as possible. The 23 Foundation raises money through the sale of memorabilia, fundraising events, donations and through the 23 Foundation Fund administered by the Community Foundation for Merseyside (CFM). In order to continue to achieve the Foundation’s charitable aims, we hold data of trusted contacts.

Whose data do we collect?

We hold data on those who have given financial or other support to the 23 Foundation or who may have applied for financial support from the 23 Foundation.

How do we obtain your data?

The majority of the information we hold about you has been provided directly to us by you. In some cases, we may collect data from other sources. Examples include where existing supporters feel you may be interested in supporting our work and suggest your name to us, or data collected via a service provider like Virgin Money Giving or My BT Donate.

What are the legal grounds for our processing of your personal information?

Where it is needed to administer donations and grant applications in line with legislative and regulatory requirements, such as:

  • Administering donations, including but not limited to funds which are subject to fund agreements
  • Administering grants and applications
  • Building and managing volunteer support

Where it is in our legitimate interests to do so, such as:

  • Maintaining up to date records
  • Promoting 23 Foundation’s aims and objectives
  • Planning and building financial support through fundraising and marketing activities
  • Sending communications about 23 Foundation’s work
  • Supporting governance of CFM, including Charities Commission and Regulatory Reporting

We may use data obtained from external sources to ensure that your contact details are up to date, to support the planning of our fundraising (including using indicators of affluence to reflect the possible level of donation someone is able to make) and to ensure that appropriate due diligence is carried out to safeguard the assets and reputation of the Community Foundations.

Protecting your data

We keep your data secure in our database with appropriate security mechanisms in place.

In principle we do not share your data with anyone else or any other organisation unless it is necessary for the purpose for which you have given us the data. Examples are given below:

  • We will provide information to HMRC on Gift Aided donations since we have a legal obligation to provide this information.
  • We will share information on grant applicants with grant panel members and donors. These are volunteers working with the Community Foundations. We will also publish data on grant recipients for groups/organisations (amounts/names/purpose) but we anonymise details for any individual grantees.
  • We may share basic information on the attenders at an event or function or meeting with the host or other person who has a volunteer role in the for the 23 Foundation.

Our responsibilities

The law requires us to tell you the basis on which we process your data.

  • Some activities (for example sending you emails which promote the 23 Foundation’s interests) require your consent. If the law requires your consent to process data in a certain way, then we will obtain it before carrying out that activity.
  • Other activities are carried out to fulfil a contract or agreement. Examples include organising a ticketed event. Each requires us to know who you are and to process your information in order to do the thing you have asked us to do. If a contract is in place, then we will process your data based on that contract.
  • In all other cases the law allows us to process your data if it is in our legitimate interest to do so, but only so long as we need to and your “interests or your fundamental rights and freedoms are not overridden”. Practically speaking this means we carry out an exercise to check that we will not cause you harm by processing your data, that the processing is not overly intrusive and that we will only do so in a way which is described in this privacy notice.

We will keep data for as long as is needed to complete the task for which it was collected. Relationships between donors, grantees and the Community Foundations are often long term and so we expect to keep your data for as long as that relationship exists and in line with legal and regulatory requirements or guidance.

Your rights

The law requires us to tell you that you have a variety of rights about the way we process your data. These are as follows:

  • Where our use of your data requires consent, you may withdraw this consent at any time
  • Where we rely on our legitimate interest to process data, you may ask us to stop doing so
  • You may request a copy of the data we hold about you and we will respond within one month of receipt
  • You may change or stop the way in which we communicate with you or process data about you, and if it is not required for the purpose you provided it, then we will do so. Activities such as processing Gift Aid donations, or managing a Grant Agreement, may mean we cannot entirely stop processing your data. However we will always endeavour to comply with such a request.
  • If you are not satisfied with the way we have processed your data then you can complain to the Office of the Information Commissioner.
