a Data Controller in respect of any personal data provided via an on-line

2) Information collected
Feed The Children collects information relating to visitors to our website:

your details to carefully selected organisations with similar objectives
to contact you for direct marketing purposes. However, Feed The Children
will not contact you nor disclose any of your personally identifiable

Security
9) When you give Feed The Children personal information we take steps to ensure
that your information is treated securely. When you are on a secure page, delivered
to you by ourselves or our partner Worldpay, a lock icon will appear on the
bottom of web browsers such as Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator,
indicating that the information is being transmitted in a secure, encrypted
form, and held on servers protected by appropriate levels of security. Non-sensitive
communication will be transmitted normally over the Internet, and this can
never be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect
your personal information, Feed The Children cannot ensure or warrant the security
of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. Once
we receive your transmission, we will use all reasonable efforts to ensure
its security on our systems. For the transmission and processing of sensitive
information, for example details associated with online donations, we operate
in partnership with Worldpay, who employ the highly secure encryption technology
to ensure the security of the information.
Other matters
10) Feed The Children will not transfer any personal information which they
have collected according to the principles described above, to any organisation
outside the European Economic Area.
11) Feed The Children will retain information that
you provide to us only for as long as it is likely to be relevant to
our charitable purposes.
12) Should we make any alterations to this privacy policy, we shall endeavour
to bring them to your attention by displaying a message on our home page.
However, we advise that you revisit this page from time to time in case any
changes are made which you may not be aware of.
