What personal data we collect and why we collect it
Pledges
If you submit a standalone pledge we keep details of the pledges you have made, your names and your e-mail address. We will send you a maximum of two emails summarising your pledge(s).
If you submit a pledge linked to an event, your email address and details of your registration/enquiry will be shared with the person or organisation hosting the event. Such hosts have committed to holding your data only for the purposes of Pledgeball.
If you subscribe or tick the Opt-In box we may send you other emails about your pledges and updates from Pledgeball, using the Mailchimp Marketing platform. Click here for details of Mailchimp’s Privacy Practices. We will not pass your name or email address to anyone else. You can unsubscribe to emails at any time. To unsubscribe click on the link at the footer of the emails.
Contact forms
Data from contact forms is stored in our site and forwarded as emails appropriately. If you offer to Host an Event, details of the event will be stored in a database and, once reviewed, published on the website. Your contact details will also be stored but will not be shown on the website.
