Privacy Policy
Justgiving takes your privacy very seriously. We will never pass your
personal details on to anyone, including the charity you have chosen
to support, without your express consent.
The only exception to this
rule is when you build a personal fundraising page with Justgiving;
in that instance, we will pass on your name, email address and postal
address to the charity for which you are building the page so that
they can identify you as the source of the donations made to your
page.
Please note that by visiting or registering with Justgiving.com,
you are agreeing to the practices detailed below so please read
on to find
out how information relating to you will be treated as you use our
site.
-
The information we collect from you as
a site visitor
Justgiving collects information about the Internet Protocol (IP)
addresses of all visitors to our site. An IP address is a number
assigned to
your computer automatically when you use the internet. This information
is
only collected in aggregate (in other words, we are not able to
monitor your individual usage of the site) and helps us monitor
site traffic
patterns in order to improve our service.
This site uses cookies for some interactive features. A cookie
is a small amount of data, which includes an anonymous unique
identifier, that is
sent to your browser from a web site's computers and stored
on your
computer's hard drive. Most browsers will automatically accept
cookies. You can
set your browser to reject cookies but some parts of the web
site may
not function properly if the cookies are rejected.
-
The information
we collect from you as a registered user with a personal fundraising
page
When you create a secure personal account on Justgiving for
the purpose of creating a personal fundraising page, we collect
your
title, name,
email address, postal address, your phone number (where
you agree to provide it) and your password. We will automatically
pass on
your name
and email and home addresses to the charity that will benefit
from the donations you are collecting. In all other instances,
we will
not pass
on this information to any third party unless you give
us your express consent.
- The information we collect from
you when you donate
If you donate or make a pledge on Justgiving, we collect your
first and last name, your declaration of tax status, your credit
or debit card
details (including card type, card number and expiry date) and
your billing address. We will only use your payment details for
the purpose
of processing your donation via our payment partner Barclays.
To find out more about the security of your payments, please read
our Security Policy. If you make a Gift Aid declaration, we will
pass it
on to the HMRC for the purpose of reclaiming tax on behalf
of the recipient charity. Your Gift Aid declaration includes your
name and home address (which may be different from your billing
address)
along with the confirmation that you are paying sufficient amounts
of tax in the current tax year. Every time you make a donation,
you will be given the option to receive further information from
the charity:
we will not pass on your name or addresses to them unless you expressly
ask us to do so.
- Email newsletters from Justgiving
We will not send you email newsletters at any time unless you have
expressly opted in to receive them. All newsletters from Justgiving
include the
option to unsubscribe. If you have a personal Justgiving account,
you can change your contact preferences at any time by visiting the
section
entitled ‘Your details’.
- Charities’ use of your
personal information
Where you have opted in to pass on your personal details to a charity
through our website, Justgiving declines all responsibility for
the subsequent use of your personal information by the charity. If
you
wish to stop receiving further communications from a charity, please
contact them directly.
- Security precautions to protect your information
The transfer of online transaction data to and from the web site
is protected by the implementation of a Secure Sockets Layer protocol.
Our Verisign
128-bit secure certificate allows web browsers to verify the authenticity
of our secure.justgiving.com domain and to communicate with our site
securely, protecting confidential information from interception and
hacking. It is your responsibility to keep your password secure
at all times to
avoid unauthorised use of your Justgiving account.
- Tell-a-Friend
and charity voucher services
When you provide a friend’s email address for Justgiving to
forward a web address, we guarantee that we will only use your friend’s
address for this purpose. We will not send them further emails unless
they opt in to receive regular information from us.
- Legal Process
Although unlikely, Justgiving may be forced by law to provide personally
identifiable information to the appropriate authorities.
- Acceptance
of our Privacy Policy
Use of the Justgiving website and associated services implies acceptance
of this Privacy Policy. If you are not satisfied with any aspect
of it please do not continue to use the website and services. This
policy
may change from time to time and you are deemed to have accepted
the current version each time you use Justgiving.com or any site powered
by us.
