This website is not intended for children and we do not knowingly collect data relating to children.

This privacy policy relates to the above parties, hereafter referred to collectively as Kalash. 

Kalash is committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring that any personal information or data we hold about you is held fairly and securely. Under data protection law, Kalash is a “data controller”. This means that we have control over the way we process your personal information.

This privacy policy is intended to explain: what personal data we collect about you; when we collect personal data; the purposes for which we use your personal data; and the legal basis or ground we are relying on for each processing activity. We will also explain the security measures we have taken as an organisation to keep your personal data secure. Under data protection law, you as an individual, have rights in relation to the personal data that we hold about you and we will set these out too.

 

What personal data do we collect? 

Personal data or personal information means any information about an individual from which that person can be identified. It does not include data where the identity has been removed (anonymous data). 

The basis on which we collect personal data from you under GDPR for the purposes covered by this policy is that you have consented to its use.

We may collect, use and store the following personal data about you:

  • Identity Data includes your name, maiden name, last name, username or similar identifier, marital status, title, date of birth and gender;

  • Contact Data includes billing address, delivery address, email address, telephone numbers and contact preference;

  •  Financial Data may include bank account and payment card details (if you are making a direct payment or  donation);

  •  Transaction and Events Data includes details about previous donations to our Sister to Sister projects, products and services you may have purchased from us and events or activities you register for or attend;

  • Technical Data includes internet protocol (IP) address, browser type and version, time zone setting and location, browser plug-in types and versions, operating system and platform and other technology on the devices you use to access this website;

  • Usage Data includes information about how you use our website; and

  •  Marketing and Communications Data includes your preferences in receiving marketing from us and your communication preferences.

We will also collect, gather and store Aggregated Data regarding the use of our website, such as which pages are visited most frequently. Only anonymous information and statistics will be used which do not identify individual visitors. Aggregated Data is therefore not considered personal data in law as this data does not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. 

 

Special category data

Special category data is data which is more sensitive and requires more protection. We only collect special category data related to health such as your age or any disability that you may have, with express consent provided from the data subject, in order to tailor product offers to your circumstances, which we legitimately need to have to ensure that we provide:

 

  • appropriate facilities or support to enable participation in our events or other activities

  • ICE information

  • proper and valid insurance cover for teacher and performance troupe members

  •  As with all data, it is entirely up to you to decide whether or not you are happy to provide this information. Sensitive personal data will only be used in order for us to fulfil our contract with you to provide the services that you have requested. We may use data provided by you to serve you better and meet your particular needs (for example, specific dietary meals when attending an event)

​

When do we collect your personal data?

How do we use this information and the legal grounds?

We use your personal data for the purposes listed below. For each processing purpose we have set out the legal ground for this:

  • To register you as a newsletter subscriber we use your Identity and Contact Data to identify and register you in order to fulfil our legal contractual obligations to you (“Consent Ground”).  

  • When you make a donation to us for our Sister to Sister projects we use your Identity, Contact, Financial / Transaction data to identify you, for our internal record keeping and to fulfil our legal contractual obligations to you (“Legal Contract Ground”). 

  • To process your donations to Sister to Sister we use a third-party processor for processing your donation payment. This enables us to fulfil our legal contractual obligations to you (“Legal Contract Ground”). 

  • To send you marketing materials about our activities and future events we use your Identity, Contact and Marketing and Communications Data to provide you with details of our upcoming dance classes, workshops, events and fundraising activities, which we believe will be of interest to you (“Legitimate Interest Ground”).

  • To deliver relevant website content to you we use your Identity, Contact, Profile Data and Usage Data. This allows us to tailor our website for your use (“Legitimate Interest Ground”). 

  • To manage our relationship with you we use your Identity, Contact, Profile and Marketing and Communications Data to enable us to notify you about any important administrative messages, changes to our terms or policies, relevant changes in the law, where we need to perform the contract between us for example, to administer a booking, event or reservation and to send you emails or call you in relation to your booking (“Legal Obligation Ground”).

  •  To engage you in a personalised way we use your Identity, Contact, Profile Data and sometimes publicly available information. Where we have identified that you may have the capacity or affinity to support Kalash and/or our Sister to Sister projects at a higher level, we may legitimately use the information we hold about you to identify connections between you and our existing circle of supporters (“Legitimate Interest Ground”).

  •  To administer and protect this website we use your Identity, Contact and Technical Data to properly administer our IT services to you and to prevent fraudulent activities (“Legal Obligation Ground”).

  •  If required to do so by law or regulatory obligation we may need to disclose personal data to regulatory bodies (“Legal Obligation Ground”).

 Please note, when we are relying on the Legitimate Interest Ground we consider your fundamental rights and freedoms before we process your personal data for our legitimate interests to consider and balance any impact on you (both positive and negative). We do not use your personal data for activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or permitted by law) (“Legitimate Interest Assessment“).
