Mr Kite Benefits - Privacy Policy |
The privacy policy on this page explains how
Mr Kite Benefits handles the data provided when individuals subscribe to our
mailing lists. It reflects what we have done since we started in 1997 and is
provided for the purposes of clarity and was prompted by the introduction of the
EU General Data Protection Regulations of May 2018.
What we do
We send mailshots about our Benefit concerts to two groups of people. Firstly,
to potential audience members for our Benefits and, secondly, to members of the
media (press, radio, etc) who might choose to include details of our Benefits in
their publications or programmes. In both cases, we hold the name and email
address of the person who has subscribed to the mailing list. For some audience
members, we have their addresses from the days when our mailshots went via the
physical postal service. For some members of the media, we have the name of
their employer (newspaper, radio station, etc).
Individuals have subscribed to these mailshots by signing up to the mailing list
at a Benefit concert, mailing us via the Mr Kite Benefits website or by some
other personal contact. This data is held on a password protected computer and,
email address and name only, by a professional email marketing organisation (MailChimp).
At any time, subscribers can mail us at
mailing@mrkite.org and ask to us to remove their data from these databases.
Mailshots are sent out on a regular basis though we aim to avoid being a
nuisance for the valued members of our mailing list. There is always the
'unsubscribe' option on the mailshot and we encourage subscribers to use this if
their interest in our fundraising Benefits wanes.
What we don't do
As you might expect from an organisation that fundraises for charity, we behave
in an ethical way as follows:
We don't gather data beyond that indicated above.
We don't pass the data mentioned above to any other third party.
We don't obtain personal data from any other third party.
If you have any further queries or
suggestions, please contact us as at
mailing@mrkite.org
