How we collect, use, and protect your personal information

Oasis Charities Privacy Policy (Fundraising and Marketing)

This document is the privacy notice for Oasis International Association, Oasis Charitable Trust, Oasis International Foundation, Oasis Community Partnerships and Oasis Community Hubs (referred to in the rest of the document collectively as 'Oasis Charities').

This policy sets out how the Oasis charities deal with personal data with specific regard to fundraising and marketing.

How we collect your personal data

Most of the personal information we process is provided to us directly by you for one of the following reasons:

  • • You have kindly made a donation to an Oasis charity and filled in a Gift Aid form
  • • You subscribe to our e-newsletter
  • • You have made an information request to us
  • • You wish to attend, or have attended, an event
  • • You have bought a product online

How we use your data

Like all major charities, we have a range of fundraising and marketing activities that help us raise income or promote the aims and objectives of Oasis charities. We will use your personal data (name, address, email and in some cases telephone) to contact you by mail based on the principle of 'legitimate interest' in our work.

We value your support and your privacy and will only contact you with updates and appeals about five times a year.

Contacting you by post

We will use your data to contact you by mail with updates, newsletters, appeals and information on campaigns around relevant topics.

You can opt out at any time by emailing us at fundraising@oasisuk.org

Contacting you by email

If you sign up to one of our mailing lists online, we will ask you to give your consent by ticking a box. We will assume that you are happy for us to contact you with updates, newsletters, appeals and information on campaigns.

Unsubscribe options are included in all our email communications or you can contact us at fundraising@oasisuk.org

How long do we keep your information?

If you have made a donation, we need to keep your details on file for six years in order to comply with financial legislation. However, we will not contact you if you so wish.

We will delete your details from our mailing lists when you withdraw your consent.

Your personal information and third parties

We never swap, sell or buy personal data from fundraising agencies. However, we are obliged by law to share personal data with certain statutory agencies.

We deal only with GDPR compliant suppliers and have robust data protection agreements in place with these third parties to ensure your data is fully protected.
