What we do to keep your information safe and who has access to it
We place great importance on the security of your personal information and will always try to take appropriate precautions to protect it.
We establish our online sites with the industry-recommended security features and carry out regular security reviews and investigations of any potential breaches.
We ensure that only authorised RAFT staff and contractors have access to your information and that they are appropriately trained to manage your data.
Despite all our precautions, no data can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. While we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of information you disclose to us online, and you must understand that you do so at your own risk.
We may legally be required to disclose your personal information to the police or for other regulatory reasons in certain circumstances. In other circumstances, we will only ever share your personal information if we have your consent to do so.
How long we keep your information for
We will hold your personal information on our database on our systems for as long as is necessary for the relevant activity. For instance, we will keep a record of donations you have made for at least six years.
Your right to your information
Where we are processing your personal information based on consent that you have given us, you are entitled to withdraw that consent. You have the right to ask us to stop processing your personal information at any time, subject to us having a legal obligation to retain certain information, for instance for audit.
You have the right to request a copy of the information we hold about you, a Subject Access Request (SAR). Our contact details are at the bottom of this privacy policy.
If the information is incorrect or you disagree with it, you have the right to ask us to correct it or erase it. We will promptly correct any inaccuracies and discuss with you any other changes you request.
