We gather your financial information to process payments – whether it’s your credit card number, which we destroy after the payment goes through, or the details of the bank transfer you make, and for financial purposes if you are accessing our financial grant scheme.
We may ask/check for medical and other personal details to ensure that we can offer you the correct level of advice and support.
We have a legal obligation to retain your financial records to meet our tax obligations, the Charity Commission, the Fundraising Regulator and Auditors if required.
Part of our legal obligation is also to maintain Health and Safety records.
We will use and share your next of kin information and your medical information on the basis of vital interest with the relevant people or organisations, emergency services personnel, authorities, in order to save or protect your life if it was necessary.
