Hospice UK’s privacy policy, which is set out here, is deemed to be included in these terms and conditions:

When Hospice UK and/or its wholly owned trading subsidiary, Help the Hospices (Trading) limited (together "HUK") collect information from individuals either online or manually this is likely to be personal data within the meaning of  the Data Protection Act 1998 ("the DPA"), and HUK will be a data controller under the DPA. This policy deals with the rights of individuals in relation to personal data under the DPA as well as general approaches to, and standards of, safeguarding privacy adopted by HUK.

1. All HUK employees and representatives, whether permanent or temporary, must be aware of the requirements of the DPA when they collect or handle data about an individual.
2. They will not disclose data except where the disclosure complies with the requirements of the DPA, or, where relevant, statutory guidance issued by the Information Commissioner's Office ("the ICO"), or any other statutory obligation. Data sent to outside agencies to process on HUK's behalf must always be protected by a written contract.
3. HUK will only collect personal data that is relevant to the carrying out of the legitimate purposes and function of HUK.
4. Supporters have the opportunity of opting out of marketing material from HUK and of either opting into or out of (depending on the circumstances) receiving offers and other information from other organisations with whom HUK has negotiated favourable member rates. This may be done by using the provided tick box option. These third party operated services may generate income, and other benefits, for HUK in pursuit of our aims.

    (a) process the data transferred only on the express instructions of HUK;
    (b) ensure data is used in full compliance with the DPA; and
    (c) implement appropriate security measures to protect the information transferred.

14. All employees and representatives have a duty to protect individuals' data from accidental disclosure and are required to comply with the following obligations:
    (a) not to give our passwords to other people, who will then have access to the data you are entitled to view;

15. HUK will provide data subjects access to their personal information on request, accompanied by a fee of £10. If the data is subject to the DPA requirement that it must be disclosed, the data will be provided within 40 days of receipt of the written request and fee (time will start from the receipt of payment of the fee if this is later than receipt of the written request).
16. We may make changes to this privacy policy from time to time. If we do make any such changes, we will post the changes on this page. Please revisit this policy each time you consider giving HUK personal information.
