Building profiles of supporters, customers and targeting communications
We may look at how you have previously interacted with us to guide us on how you like to interact with us and the kind of support that you have a preference providing.
We may analyse your personal information to create a profile about you, your interests and preferences. In doing this, we look for other information about you in addition to what you have given us, for example, from social media.


This helps us make sure we send appropriate communications to our supporters/customers, using our resources more effectively as well as helping us to improve the quality of our supporters’ experience with us.


We may contact you to let you know about events and offers we are running. If you don’t want to hear from us, that’s fine.
