Privacy policy

Wild and Wonderful is committed to protecting and respecting your personal data; we will always store your details securely – and never share them without your permission.

The information below explains our policy regarding your personal data, both online and offline. By visiting wildandwonderful.uk or using our social media pages (such as Facebook), you are accepting the practices described below.

We will only send you a quarterly e-newsletter if you request access to our free resources and you can unsubscribe at any time by following the link on the e-news or by emailing us.

If you have any questions regarding this policy, please get in touch with Petra Crofton, our data protection officer by emailing infowildandwonderful@gmail.com. Petra is based in Gloucestershire (UK).


How do we collect information from you?

We will only collect information via Mailchimp, when you request access to the free resources and if you email us. We are currently not using cookies.

In addition, we may collect anonymous information about the services you use and how you use them. For example, when you watch a video on YouTube, visit our website or engage with social media. We may also collect information about you from publicly available sources.


What information do we collect?

The information we might collect is the information that you have given us when using the Mailchimp form or by contacting us by email.


How do we use that information?

We may use your information to:

  • Provide you with information about our work that you have requested or which we feel may be of interest to you. This may include information about campaigns, appeals, events, other fundraising activities, promotions of any associated goods and services and general updates of our work.

  • Contact you where you have been identified as a contact person for an organization, such as a school or a church.

  • Answer your enquiries or seek your views about a service we provide, through voluntary surveys or research.

  • Communicate with ECLAS and other funding bodies about the reach and effectiveness of our website, social media accounts and the resources.


Who has access to your information?

We do not sell or rent your information to third parties, nor do we share it with them for marketing purposes.

We may pass your information to our third party service providers if you have requested this. 

The only exception to this rule is if we are required to release your information by law, for example by a court order or for the purposes of preventing fraud or other crime.


How do we protect your personal information?

When you give us personal information, we take appropriate physical, electronic and managerial steps to ensure that it is kept secure, accurate and up-to-date.

Although we use appropriate security measures once we have received your personal information, the transmission of information over the internet is never completely secure. We do our best to protect personal information, but we cannot guarantee the security of information transmitted to our website or over email, so any transmission is at the user’s own risk.

As well as this, any personal identifiable information can only be accessed by Petra Crofton and the Wild and Wonderful team on a ‘need to know’ basis and held in strict confidence.


How to update my information or change my marketing preferences?

If you want to update the information we hold for you, or think any information we have about you is incorrect or incomplete, please get in touch.

You can do this by emailing infowildandwonderful@gmail.com or by sending a personal message via Facebook (Wild and Wonderful page)

You also have a choice about whether or not you wish to receive information from us. If you do not want to receive any communications from us then please contact us and we will remove your name and contact information from our distribution lists.
