Donor Privacy Policy

Effective date: 19 August 2026

Cyrus & Esther CIC does not yet accept donations through this website. This policy sets out the principles that will govern donor data once giving is live, so our approach is clear in advance.

1. Our commitment

When we introduce donations, we commit to the following principles:

  • we will never sell, rent or trade donor personal data
  • donor data will be used only to process your gift, issue a receipt or acknowledgement, and maintain accurate financial records
  • we will only send you communications about our work if you have opted in to receive them
  • you will be able to give anonymously where our chosen payment provider supports it
  • you can ask us to correct your details or stop contacting you at any time

2. Payment data

We do not intend to store your card or payment details ourselves. Donations will be processed through a reputable, PCI-compliant third-party payment provider, whose own privacy and security terms will apply to the payment itself.

3. How donor data will be used

Once donations are live, we expect to use donor data to:

  • process and confirm your donation
  • provide a receipt or, where applicable, Gift Aid documentation
  • maintain financial and regulatory records
  • report to donors on the specific project their gift supported, where relevant

4. Your rights

Once donations are live, donor data will also be covered by our general Privacy Policy, including your rights to access, correct or request deletion of your data, subject to our obligations to keep financial records.

5. Updates

We will publish a fuller, donation-specific version of this policy, including details of our payment provider, before donations go live on this website.
