Any information you give to us, including your email address whether by email or by filling in a donation or membership form or a newsletter request, may be used by The Change Consortium for the effective administration of this site or to improve our services generally. Unless you subscribe to our mailing list, we will not contact you for either marketing or promotional purposes other than to thank you for your donation.

Donations and subscriptions

If donating to the Changing Lives campaign, your data will be stored for the purposes of donation reporting only (unless you subscribe to our mailing list).

If you subscribe to our mailing list, every time you receive a message from us, you'll have the option to unsubscribe from further information relating to the activities of The Change Consortium.

Your details, by that we mean your name or any other information which will allow you to be identified, will not be given to anyone else unless either you give your express permission or it is necessary for us to do so in order to comply with the law or with police investigations.

That means, for example, that your email address will not be seen by any other user of the site except as stated on the site or with your express consent. However, you agree that we may disclose to third parties your postcode, gender and/or age, but only in the form of statistical information and not in any way that identifies you.

If donating through JustGiving, your details will be included on a monthly donation report sent to us by JustGiving.

In addition to any details that you submit on a form or send us, information is automatically retrieved, for example on browsing patterns through the site. This is used only in statistical form; no individual user is identified. This data allows The Change Consortium to analyse how many people are coming to the site, how often and to what sections, and helps us to provide a more relevant service.
