PRIVACY POLICY
We collect personal data in a number of ways; online, at events, email, phone, letters and in any other form of correspondence. Typically the only information we collect from you is: name, address, email, telephone number and bank details when necessary for you to make a donation. Very occasionally, we may need extra information that the GDPR classes as ‘sensitive’ data, however in these circumstances we will explain why we need this data and would only retain this data with your consent.
We may collect information from social media pages where you have given consent, for instance, when you post on our social media pages or message us via our social media account. Occasionally, we may collect information about certain supporters (e.g. particularly well known or influential people) from public sources. This could include public databases (such as Companies House), news or other media. We don’t do this to everyone, and it is the exception not the rule.
We use your information in various ways such as:
If you share an address or have a family connection with another supporter such as parents or spouse, your details will be linked on our systems to avoid duplicate mailings and help our supporter care team.
We may need to let third-party companies who provide services to Children Change Colombia access your data. These companies support us with sending emails and processing credit card payments. We will only provide these companies with the relevant information they need to deliver the specific service and ensure that your data is treated with respect and integrity.

We will store your personal information on our database for as long as is necessary for the relevant activity, or for the period stipulated by legal bodies such as HMRC. In most cases, we will keep some personal data for up to six years for financial and auditing purposes.
If you decide you wish to stop receiving communications from CCC, we will stop sending you marketing materials. We will keep your record and any appropriate information to ensure we do not contact you again in this way.
We may securely store the data you provide to us for some time, for legacy administration purposes and to communicate effectively with the families of people leaving us legacies. This also enables us to identify and analyse the source of legacy income we receive.
