Privacy Policy

INSAAN is a registration pending charity.

This policy applies to information collected on this website and our associated websites. We’re referring to these sites collectively here as “our website”.

We are the Data Controller of personal information that this policy applies to under the Data Protection Act 1998.

We only collect information about you that:

• helps us make the site work better for you
• lets us contact you if we need to
• lets us give you accurate local information if you need it
• shows us how you are using the site, so we can keep improving it
• helps us understand why you support our work, so we can better meet your needs and find more people like you

Parts of the site may ask you for more information so that you can use services or complete transactions. You’ll always be told when this information is being collected. In many cases you’ll be asked to enter it — for example, an email address for correspondence. This information will only be used for the purposes stated as it’s collected.

The Information we collect

We collect the following information from people visiting the website:

• Questions, queries and feedback you leave, including your email address if you send us email

What are Cookies?

Like most websites, our site uses small data files stored on your computer called cookies. Please use web broswers to explore cookies, which will explain the types of information we collect through the use of cookies and how you can manage their use.

How we store your personal data

All information you provide to us is stored on secure servers. Payment transactions are encrypted.

The transmission of information over the internet is never completely secure. We’ll do our best to protect your personal data, but cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our site; any transmission is at your own risk. We use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.

How we use your information

Any information we collect is used to:

• improve the content and design of the website
• let you use interactive features, when you choose to do so
• contact you

We never share your information with other organisations for marketing, market research or commercial purposes, and we don’t pass on your personal information to any other website.

Use of postal addresses and phone numbers

If you enter your postal address or phone number into any of our online forms, we may use these details to contact you, unless you ask us not to. If you have given us your postal address or phone number and would prefer not to be contacted by these means, please email us.

We may disclose your personal information:

• if we are under a duty to disclose or share visitors’ personal data to comply with a legal obligation
