We are therefore required to regularly review our data protection policies, procedures and staff guidance. This helps us to ensure we continue to comply with the law and that our intended processing is both clearly explained, necessary and absolutely transparent. Where we rely on consent, we ensure it is gathered in accordance with the law. When we rely on other conditions, we consider the rights of others before we proceed.<\/p>\n<p>We assess the risks we may, from time to time create, when processing data to ensure we uphold the rights and freedoms of every individual. This is especially true when we process data in a new way.<\/p>\n<p>We only share data where we have a defined purpose to do so and a data sharing agreement is in place. International transfers are safeguarded with standard contractual clauses where necessary.<\/p>\n<p>We keep extensive records of our processing. For example, activity and incident logs measure our compliance and help us to identify any weaknesses in our procedures. We actively consider the opinion and advice of others both here, in the EU and beyond. We monitor case law and the guidance of the Information Commissioner\u2019s Office (ICO). We have appointed a Data Protection Officer who is an expert in data protection law and is experienced in the third sector. We positively welcome enquires from the public concerning their personal information.<\/p>\n<p>To ensure we protect personal information we constantly review our security measures, both technical and physical and have instigated appropriate safeguards. These include regularly training our staff.<\/p>\n<p>We have appointed an identifiable \u2018accountable person\u2019 to oversee our processing. We are registered with the ICO as a data controller and have a clear breach reporting policy. Further detail concerning this can be found in this notice, or in the data protection policies.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>About Us<\/h3>\n<p>At Born Free, we work tirelessly to ensure that all wild animals, whether living in captivity or in the wild, are treated with compassion and respect and are able to live their lives according to their needs. With your support, we can continue this important work and oppose the exploitation of wild animals in captivity and campaign to keep them where they belong \u2013 in the wild.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>What are our lawful bases for processing your data?<\/h3>\n<p>The law on data protection sets out a number of different reasons or conditions for which an organisation may collect and process your personal data. When collecting information that may identify you, we will always make clear to you what data is necessary for each purpose we have identified. Most commonly, we will process your data on the following lawful grounds:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Consent<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In specific situations, we can collect and process your data with your consent.<\/p>\n<p>This may include when you agree to receive an email about ways you can become a supporter or to receive information from us about other ways to help us, or when you make an enquiry about products that we sell to raise money for our cause. To protect you further, we make sure we adhere to the particular rules concerning electronic communications sent by email or text.<\/p>\n<p>If you have not engaged with us for more than eight years, you will be flagged as inactive and we will contact you to ask whether you want us to keep your data or not. Unless you reply to say \u2018yes\u2019, we will delete or anonymise your personal data. However, we assume that past and present supporters and customers might reasonably expect to continue receiving information unless they have indicated otherwise.<\/p>\n<p>On very rare occasions we may process your data without your consent. This will only be if you are at risk and therefore in your best interest. If you are concerned about this, please get in touch.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Contractual obligations<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In certain circumstances, we need your personal data to comply with our contractual obligations. This might include a Gift Aid claim that you may have pledged or where you purchase a product from Born Free Trading Ltd.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Legal compliance<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If the law requires it, we may need to collect and process your data.<\/p>\n<p>This will include sharing with law enforcement agencies details of people involved in fraud or other criminal activity affecting Born Free.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Legitimate interest<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In specific situations, we require your data to pursue our legitimate interests in a way which might reasonably be expected when we pursue our aims and objectives as an organisation, and which does not materially impact your rights, freedom or interests. We have completed a risk assessment to measure any possible negative impact on our supporters when we use this condition.<\/p>\n<p>We may also use your data, typically in an emergency, where this is necessary to protect your vital interests, or someone else\u2019s vital interests. In a small number of cases where other lawful bases do not apply, we will process your data on this basis with or without your consent.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Special category data<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Special categories of particularly sensitive personal data require higher levels of protection. We need to have further justification for collecting, storing and using this type of personal data. We do not aim to collect and process special category data, but we acknowledge it may be revealed to us. Born Free will document all incidents of its processing of special category data in our data protection incident register and if it is required, the processing will be supported by additional documentation such as an appropriate policy document.<\/p>\n<p>For your information, the special categories of personal data consist of data that reveals:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Racial or ethnic origin<\/li>\n<li>Political opinions<\/li>\n<li>Religious or philosophical beliefs<\/li>\n<li>Trade union memberships<\/li>\n<li>Genetic data<\/li>\n<li>Biometric data (eg fingerprints)<\/li>\n<li>Data concerning health<\/li>\n<li>Data concerning someone&#8217;s sex life or sexual orientation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We may process special categories of personal data in the following circumstances:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>With your explicit written consent<\/li>\n<li>Where it is necessary in the substantial public interest, and further conditions are met<\/li>\n<li>Where the processing is necessary for archiving purposes in the public interest, or for scientific or historical research purposes, or statistical purposes, subject to further safeguards for your fundamental rights and interests specified in law<\/li>\n<li>Where there is a legal obligation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Further legal controls apply to data relating to criminal convictions and allegations of criminal activity.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This privacy notice explains the types of personal data we may collect about you when you interact with us.
