This policy sets out the principles we adopt in order to protect your personal information. These principles deal generally with our collection, use and disclosure of, and your access to information we may have recorded about you.

If you choose not to provide us with your contact details when you donate to us, we are unable to send you an official tax-deductible receipt and letter of thanks.

We will only use your personal information for the reasons we collected it. Unless we have first obtained your consent, these reasons and the parties to whom we might disclose it will be reasonably apparent to you when we collect your information and our use and disclosure of that information will only be for our business activities.

If we have marketed our projects and services to you and you no longer wish to receive those sorts of communications from us, you should contact us and we will ensure this is corrected.
