The information we collect depends on what we need it for and your stated preferences. We only keep it for as long as needed, so if you unsubscribe we will remove your data. Note that there are statutory requirements which require us to keep certain data for set periods of time.

 

Under the European General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) which came into force in May 2018, processing of data deemed to be sensitive must receive explicit permission for its usage. Thru-Hike for Schools does not require or ask for sensitive data. This does not apply to general supporters and separate arrangements are in place for members of staff and volunteers who require them for their role.

 

How we may use your data:

• To provide you with information about the hikes that will be happening in 2020 (these will be in electronic form)
• For processing and accounting of donations we receive from you
• To put you in touch with the organizer of an existing hike if you choose to join one on our website
• To put you in touch with people who want to join your hike if you registered one on our website

 

Who might we share information with and for what purpose?

• Organizers of hikes, in case you choose to join a hike on our website
• People who want to join your hike if you registered one on our website
• MailChimp, a third party provider that we use for bulk emails. When you receive emails from us via MailChimp, you will also be given the opportunity to unsubscribe from the mailing list by clicking on a button on the bottom of the email.

We do not pass on any information to third parties other than these clearly defined partners for the purposes of the charity and its work. We never sell your information for any reason.

 

We do not handle credit/debit cards.
