How we get the personal information and why we have it

Most of the personal information we process is provided to us directly by you for one of the following reasons:

We will collect and store information about you whenever you interact with us.

For example, when you make a donation, submit an enquiry, put forward a nomination, purchase any merchandise or give us any other personal information.

We use the information that you have given us in order to process donations, provide you with goods and services, consider a nomination and to ensure that we are holding accurate and up to date information about you.

Under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the lawful bases we rely on for processing this information are: [delete as appropriate]

(a) Your consent. You are able to remove your consent at any time. You can do this by contacting info@childflight.co.uk

(b) We have a contractual obligation. (c) We have a legal obligation.
(d) We have a vital interest.
(e) We need it to perform a public task.

(f) We have a legitimate interest.

We will make every reasonable effort to keep your details secure and will only share them as necessary to fulfil the purposes of ChildFlight (or as may be required to fulfil a legal or audit obligation). Except as required by law, we will not share your information with other organisations and we do not purchase data from any third parties.

Transmission of information over the internet is never completely secure. We will do our best to protect any information transmitted to our website, but cannot guarantee the security of it, if given this way.

How we store your personal information

Your information is securely stored.

We will hold your information for as long as necessary to carry out the relevant purpose, or as long as needed for legal or audit purposes.

You have the right to ask us to remove data held about you. We will do this unless we need to retain the information for legal or audit purposes (in which case we will remove it as soon as the purpose is fulfilled), or if it relates to a current nomination where removing your data would make it difficult or impossible to continue (in that case, we would remove it as soon as reasonably possible).

If you think that the information we hold about you is out of date or incorrect, we would appreciate you contacting us to update or correct it.
