Kidstuff Privacy Policy

Introduction
Kidstuff is one of our outreach projects, where we aim to provide items of clothing, toys and equipment to families with children under the age of 5.

Here at Kidstuff we take your privacy seriously. The aim of this Privacy Notice is to explain as clearly as possible how we use your personal data when you are referred to Kidstuff for assistance. If you would like to read CVM's full Privacy Notice, please refer to the link on our website or request a copy from us.

What Happens When A Referral Is Made To Kidstuff? Kidstuff operates on a referral basis. This means that we receive information about you only when a trusted agency such as social services or a school makes a referral on your behalf. The referral form includes a requirement for the agency to ask your permission to make the referral. Therefore we should only receive personal data about you once you have given your consent for this.

What Information Do We Hold? The referral form contains the basic information that we need in order to be able to help you. We will be given your name, address, contact details and details about the age and sex of your children, together with details of any specific needs that your family has, for example a disability which means that special equipment is needed.

How Will We Use This Information? We use this information to assemble a package of items suitable for your family's needs. We need your address and contact details so that we can get in touch to arrange to drop off your items, and so we can ask you for any extra information that we need.
We will also use your information to make it easier for us to deal with a request for further assistance in the following 12 months.

Finally, we may use your information for the purposes of preparing reports or carrying out evaluations about our work, including reports for the charity commission or for potential funders. However, if we use your information for this purpose, it will be anonymised before we so this so that you are no longer identifiable.
The reasons above mean that we have a legitimate interest in processing your data. We will not use your information for purposes outside of this legitimate interest.

Where Do We Store Your Personal Data? We are committed to holding your personal data securely. Only CVM staff and authorised volunteers that need to see the data can access it.
We aim to store all of your data on computers, so that there are no paper forms. All computers that store your personal data are password protected and information is stored on secure servers. We will ensure that all computers are kept up to date with antivirus, anti-malware and firewall protection.

How Long Do We Hold Your Data? Data will be kept for a period of 12 months from the date of receipt, as detailed above.

Your Rights Under data protection law, you have a number of rights about how your data is processed. Your rights include the right to:
◦ Request access to the data we hold about you
◦ Have inaccurate and incomplete data rectified
◦ Have the personal data we hold on you deleted (except where we are required to hold the data by law)
◦ To restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances.

Please let us know if you don't understand these rights or want more information about them. Full details of your personal rights can also be found on the Information Commissioner’s Office website - https://ico.org.uk/.
