How do we collect information?

You may provide us with your details when enquiring about our activities, make a donation or apply for assistance. We will sometimes receive information about you from third parties, for example from our service providers or from a friend who wants to tell you about our website or the fundraising activities we carry out.

What information do we collect?

The type of data we collect depends on why you have provided the information in the first place.

Personal information might include name, date of birth, email address, postal address, telephone number and credit/debit card details. For applicants, data may include medical records and professional endorsements relating to a child’s illness.

How do we use this information?

We will use your personal information:

• • To provide you with the services, products or information you have requested.
• • To fulfil any necessary legal obligations.
• • For administration purposes in line with compliance and your legal rights.
• • To comply with our charitable aims, including fundraising activities.

We may analyse the information to create a profile of your interests and preferences so we can contact you in the most appropriate, consensual way and with the most relevant information.

We will never share your information to other organisations unless there is a legal requirement to do so.

Our promise

It is important to us that we communicate in the best way possible and, if you would like to amend your contact preferences at any time please get in touch: react@reactcharity.org.

If we have not heard from you for five years, all relevant data is automatically deleted and it is your legal right to request that this is done sooner if desirable.

All details are stored on secure and password protected systems. We use a secure server when you make a donation or payment via our website. React takes appropriate measures to ensure that the personal information disclosed to us is kept secure, accurate and up to date and is kept only for so long as is necessary for the purposes for which it is used.
