The basis for processing your data, how we use that data and with whom we share it

Where we have a contractual relationship with you
We may process your personal data because it is necessary for the performance of a contract, or to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract. In this respect, we use your personal data to enter into tenancy agreements with you and to instruct our managing agents in relation to your tenancy.

Legitimate interests
We may process your personal data because it is necessary for our or a third party’s legitimate interests. These legitimate interests include the Charities’ charitable objectives. This will always be weighed against your rights, interests and expectations. In this respect, we use your personal data for the following:

  • To process grant applications in respect of the Charities’ funds and to evaluate how charitable funds are being used;
  • To process any enquiries in relation to the Charities’ activities;

In this respect, we provide your personal data to the following:

  • Our professional advisers where it is necessary for us to obtain their advice or assistance;
  • Our IT support and any data storage provider;

Your data may also be shared between the Charities; the Charities have the same administrator and individuals may be trustees of more than one Charity. Data is shared in this way so that we have oversight over which grant applicants have received funding and to be able to advise grant applicants in cases where another Charity may be more appropriate to receive a grant application.

Legal obligations

We may also process your data for our compliance with our legal and regulatory obligations. In this respect we may use your personal data to comply with subject access requests of others, tax legislation, safeguarding requirements, for the prevention and detection of crime, and to assist the police, the Charity Commission and other competent authorities with investigations (including criminal investigations).

Consent

In some circumstances we may seek your specific consent to process your personal data: for example, if we wish to use your likeness or an attributed quote in our newsletters or other materials that promote the Charities’ work.

If you have given your consent and you wish to withdraw it, please contact us using the contact details above.

International transfers

Our website, which holds information relating to grant applications, is hosted on a server based in the USA. Personal information will only be transferred outside of the EEA if an appropriate gateway (such as Privacy Shield) is in place.

Retention of your data

We will retain your personal data for so long as is required for our legal and regulatory obligations and for our legitimate business purposes after the termination of your relationship with us. In particular:

  • We retain information in relation to successful grant applications and trustee minutes recording such information indefinitely;
  • We retain information in relation to unsuccessful grant applications for one year after your application is turned down;
  • We retain information in relation to tenancies at our residential properties for up to seven years after the relationship has concluded.

Your rights

You have the following rights:

  • To obtain access to, and copies of, the personal data that we hold about you;
  • To request that we erase your personal data;
  • To request that we restrict our data processing activities;
  • To receive from us the personal data we hold about you which you have provided to us, in a reasonable format specified by you, including for the purpose of you transmitting that personal data to another data controller; and
  • To require us to correct the personal data we hold about you if it is inaccurate.

Please note that the above rights are not absolute, and we may be entitled to refuse requests where exceptions apply: for example, if we have reason to believe the personal data we hold is accurate or we can show our processing is necessary for a lawful purpose set out in this Notice.

If you are not satisfied with how we are processing your personal data, you can make a complaint to the Information Commissioner ico.org.uk
