How do we collect information?


When you subscribe to our mailing list or contact us on our website, as part of the process, we collect personal information you give us such as your name, address and email address. Your personal information will be used for the specific reasons stated above only.  

 

Where relevant, information is provided to explain why the data is being collected and how it will be used. In these cases we will ask you to ‘opt-in’ to receive future communications such as emails or marketing communications. If you have opted in, you can opt out of any future communications from us by clicking unsubscribe or ticking the appropriate box when we contact you directly.

 

How do we store, use, share and disclose our site visitors' personal information?

 

Our organisation’s website is hosted on the Wix.com platform. Wix.com provides us with the online platform that allows us to present and promote our NGO and its activities to you. Your data may be stored through Wix.com’s data storage, databases and the general Wix.com applications. They store your data on secure servers behind a firewall.  

 

We will only use your data in a manner that is appropriate considering the basis on which that data was collected, as set out in the table at the top of this policy.  

 

For example, we may use your personal information to:

● reply to enquiries you send to us;

● handle donations or other transactions that you initiate;  

● where you have specifically agreed to this, send you marketing communications by email relating to our work which we think may be of interest to you.

 

We will only pass your data to third parties in the following circumstances:

● you have provided your explicit consent for us to pass data to a named third party;  

● we are using a third party purely for the purposes of processing data on our behalf and we have in place a data processing agreement with that third party that fulfils our legal obligations in relation to the use of third party data processors; or

● we are required by law to share your data.  

 

How long do we keep your data?

 

We take the principles of data minimisation and removal seriously and have internal policies in place to ensure that we only ever ask for the minimum amount of data for the associated purpose and delete that data promptly once it is no longer required.  

 

Where data is collected on the basis of consent, we will seek renewal of consent at least every three years.  

 

Rights you have over your data

 

You have a range of rights over your data, which include the following:

● Where data processing is based on consent, you may revoke this consent at any time and we will make it as easy as possible for you to do this (for example by putting ‘unsubscribe’ links at the bottom of all our marketing emails).  

● You have the right to ask for rectification and/or deletion of your information.  

● You have the right of access to your information.  

● You have the right to lodge a complaint with the Data Protection Office if you feel your rights have been infringed.  

 

A full summary of your legal rights over your data can be found on the Data Protection Office’s website here: http://dataprotection.govmu.org

 

If you would like to access the rights listed above, or any other legal rights you have over your data under current legislation, or if you have any other questions or comments related to your personal data, please get in touch with us.  

 

Please note that relying on some of these rights, such as the right to deleting your data, will make it impossible for us to continue to deliver some services to you. However, where possible we will always try to allow the maximum access to your rights while continuing to deliver as many services to you as possible.  

 

How do we communicate with our site visitors?

 

We may contact you to notify you regarding your account, to troubleshoot problems with your account, to resolve a dispute, to send updates about our organisation, or as otherwise necessary to abide by applicable laws or regulations, and any agreement we may have with you. For these purposes we may contact you via email, phone or any other contact details that you have explicitly provided to us. You can opt out of receiving such communication at any point by emailing info@notanumber.ngo relevant request.

 

Privacy policy updates 

 

We reserve the right to modify this privacy policy at any time, so please review it frequently. Changes and clarifications will take effect immediately upon their posting on the website. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you here that it has been updated, so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we use and/or disclose it.
