The Legal Basis for our activities 

There are three bases under which we may process your data:
Contract purposes
When you make a donation to us, or a purchase from us, you are entering into a contract with us. In order to perform this contract we need to process and store your data. For example we may need to contact you by email or telephone in the case of cancellation of a show/event, or in the case of problems with your payment.

Legitimate business interests 
In certain situations we collect and process your personal data for purposes that are in our legitimate organisational interests. However we only do this if there is no overriding prejudice to you by using your personal information in this way. We describe below all situations where we may use this basis for processing.

With your explicit consent
For any situations where the two bases above are not appropriate, we will instead ask for your explicit consent before using your personal information in that specific situation. 

Marketing communications
We aim to communicate with you about the work that we do in ways that you find relevant, timely and respectful. To do this we use data that we have stored about you, such as what events you have booked in the past, as well preferences you have told us about.

We use our legitimate organisational interest as the legal basis for communications by post and email. In the case of postal mailings, you may object to receiving these at any time using the contact details at the end of this policy. All marketing communications include an option to unsubscribe at any time. 

Fundraising
Spare Tyre is a registered charity and we rely on charitable support and voluntary income to maintain our work and attract and engage participants and audiences. This work is supported by individuals, trusts and foundations, companies and statutory bodies. We target our fundraising activities to ensure that we contact donors and prospect donors appropriately. To do so, we may use simple research methods to profile supporters and to identify shared interests and connections through Google, articles, websites and websites of companies such as LinkedIn, and from other publicly available information.

We may also obtain information from individuals working on our behalf such as our  Board. Such information helps us better understand the interests of people who engage with us, and aids us in making appropriate fundraising approaches to those who will be most interested and most able to support our work. If we have identified a specific company or trust and foundation through our research, we may contact the people specifically connected to these bodies via publicly available contact information, such as a relevant work email address. If we identify an individual, we may contact them via phone or by post. As a charity, we believe that this is in the legitimate interest of our fundraising needs. We will always ensure we conduct a legitimate interest assessment to ensure that we are not infringing on your rights.

We ask our supporters for permission or preference for appropriate accreditation online on our website, and in our annual review. We also respect the rights to anonymity if the donor so requests.

You can opt out of your data being used in this way by emailing info@sparetyre.org. We respect anyone’s right to withdraw their consent from this form of electronic communication and once informed of a preference change, we will stop this form of contact. We are committed to fundraising best practice and abide by the Fundraising Regulator’s key principles and behaviours of a fundraising organisation: to be legal, open, honest and respectful. We undertake to comply with relevant law and regulations, including the Proceeds of Crime Act, Data Protection, Tax and Gift Aid legislation and Charity Commission guidance.


Your rights 

We want to make sure that your personal information is accurate and up to date. You may ask us to correct or remove information you think is inaccurate. If you wish to exercise any of your rights, as indicated by the ICO please write to us at info@sparetyre.org.

If you make a request relating to any of your rights, we will consider each request in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulations. No administration fee will be charged for considering and/or complying with such a request and a response will be provided within 30 days. 

You can make the above request by emailing or by writing to: info@sparetyre.org, Spare Tyre, The Albany, Douglas Way, SE8 4AG.

Security and Sensitive personal data

Once we have received your personal data, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access. We will process, disclose or share your personal data only if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with legal requirements or legal process served on us or our website.

Data Protection law recognises that certain categories of personal information are more sensitive such as health information, race, religious beliefs and political opinions. We do not usually collect this type of information about our patrons unless there is a clear reason for doing so. As an example, we collect health information about participants in our programmes and courses used anonymously and only for monitoring purposes and reporting to our funders.
