Data protection laws require us to tell you what legal basis we use for processing your personal data. These bases are set out in the applicable data protection law. We generally use the following:

• the processing is necessary to perform a contract with you (i.e. the contract for the sale and purchase of your subscription or event tickets), or to take steps requested by you before entering into this contract;
• the processing is in Awesome’s or someone else’s legitimate interests, and these interests are not overridden by your interests or rights in the protection of your personal data;
• the processing is necessary to meet a legal obligation which applies to Awesome’s delivery of services;

We use a number of suppliers to process website donations, manage online payments and despatch our written e-newsletters. We carefully select our suppliers and ensure that theses suppliers abide by our data processing agreements.

With consent we would like to share your information with Islington Council so that they can use it to help improve overall services to children and young people in the area.

You have several rights in relation to your personal data. These include accessing your data, correcting any mistakes, having your data erased, restricting the processing of your data, objecting to the processing of your data, data portability, and rights relating to automated decision making and profiling. In most cases there are conditions attached to these rights. Please see below for further information on each of these.

You can ask us to:

• confirm whether we are processing your personal data;
• give you a copy of that data;
• provide you with other information about your personal data such as what data we have,what we use it for, who we disclose it to, whether we transfer it abroad and how we protect it, how long we keep it for, what rights you have, how you can make a complaint, where we got your data from and whether we carry out any automated decision making or profiling. We aim to give you all this information in this privacy policy, although if anything is unclear, please contact us.

We aim to respond to you within one month of receiving your request unless it is particularly complicated or you have made several requests, in which case we aim to respond within three  months. We will let you know if we are going to take longer than one month in dealing with your request. If we have a lot of information about you we might ask you if you can tell us what exactly you want to receive. This will help us action your request more quickly.

You can ask us to correct any data which is inaccurate or incomplete. This is free of charge.

If we have shared the data with anyone else, we will tell them about the correction wherever possible. We aim to deal with requests for correction within one month, although it might take us up to three months if your request is particularly complicated.

If we can’t action a request to correct your data, we will let you know and explain why this is.

This right is sometimes referred to as “the right to be forgotten”. This is not an absolute right but you have the right to have your data erased, free of charge, in certain circumstances.

If we have shared your data with third parties, we will tell them about the erasure of your data unless this is impossible or would involve disproportionate effort.

You can ask us to restrict the processing of your personal data in some circumstances, free of charge. This is not an absolute right. If processing is restricted we can store the data and retain enough information to make sure the restriction is respected, but we cannot further process your data.

• if you contest the accuracy of your data, we will restrict processing until we have made sure the data is accurate;
• if you object to our processing and we are considering this objection;
• if the processing is unlawful but you do not want us to erase your data;
• if we no longer need the personal data but you require the data to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim.

If we have disclosed the data to a third party, we will inform them about the restriction unless it is impossible or would require a disproportionate effort. We will tell you if we decide to lift a restriction on processing your data.

Objecting to the processing of your data is free of charge. It is not an absolute right but you can object to our processing of your data where it is:

• based on the legitimate interests ground; or
• for the purposes of scientific/historical research and statistics.

• we are processing the data either based on your consent or because it is necessary for the performance of a contract; and
• the processing is carried out by automated means

We will provide your data free of charge in a structured, commonly used and machine readable form. We aim to provide your data within one month of receiving your request unless it is particularly complicated or you have made several requests, in which case we aim to respond within three  months. If we are going to take longer than one month we will let you know and explain why we need more time. If we consider that we cannot provide you with your data, we will contact you and explain why this is.

You have the right not to be subject to a decision which is based on automated processing and which produces a legal (or similarly significant) effect on you.

We will tell you about any automated decision making that affects you. You have the right to:

• request human intervention;
