Personal Data and Privacy
Controller and Scope
This section explains how personal data is processed in connection with the Website in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
Categories of Data Collected
- Identification and contact details you provide (for example, name and message content when submitting a form or enquiry).
- Account or subscription data you provide (for example, preferences for receiving updates, if applicable).
- Transaction data where relevant (for example, donation or booking details excluding full payment card numbers, which are processed by secure payment providers).
- Technical and usage data (for example, IP address, device and browser information, pages viewed, time and date of visits), collected via server logs and cookies or similar technologies.
Purposes and Legal Bases
- Responding to enquiries and communicating with you: legitimate interests (to operate and manage the Website and respond to requests).
- Managing subscriptions, events, bookings, or donations (where offered): contract performance and legitimate interests; legal obligations may also apply (for example, record-keeping and accounting).
- Operating, maintaining, securing, and improving the Website (including preventing fraud and abuse): legitimate interests.
- Analytics and audience measurement (non-essential cookies): consent obtained via the cookie banner, which you can withdraw at any time.
- Compliance with legal obligations and the exercise or defence of legal claims: legal obligation and legitimate interests.
Retention
- Enquiry and correspondence data: retained as long as necessary to address your request and for up to 24 months thereafter.

- Donation and booking records: retained for the period required by applicable tax and accounting laws.
- Technical logs and security records: typically retained for up to 12 months unless needed to investigate or mitigate security incidents.
Recipients and International Transfers
Personal data may be shared with trusted service providers who support the Website (for example, hosting, CDN, security, analytics, email delivery, and payment services). These providers are engaged under appropriate contracts and process data on documented instructions.
Because Cloudflare and certain other providers may operate globally, your personal data may be transferred outside the UK. When such transfers occur, appropriate safeguards are applied, such as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement or the UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, together with technical and organizational measures designed to protect your data.
Security
Technical and organizational measures are implemented to protect personal data, including the use of secure protocols (HTTPS/TLS), access controls, and server-side protections. No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is entirely secure; residual risks remain.
Your Rights
Subject to legal conditions and exemptions, you have the right to access, rectify, erase, and port your personal data, to restrict or object to processing, and to withdraw consent at any time (without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal). You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO). To exercise your rights, please use the contact options provided on the Website.
