Our commitment to privacy

Your privacy is really important to us. We do need to take some information about you to allow you to use the tools we offer whether you are a patient using our support services to talk to other people, fundraisers taking part in one of our events or a researcher sharing their incredible work through a blog.

We are focused on empowering you, and won't do anything unreasonable with your data. The information below explains our policy. By visiting any of Road 2 Recovery UK's websites you are accepting this privacy policy.

What information about you is collected on this site?

When you visit our website, you may provide us with personal information (such as name, address, email address, telephone numbers and/or credit/debit card information). We are subject to UK law and the Data Protection Act 1998, but over and beyond that we will ensure your information is safe and managed correctly.

We collect information in order to provide services like these for you:

  • Ordering patient information

  • Blogging your journey

  • Talking on our forums

  • Fundraising for us

  • Donating to us

  • Donating on a fundraising page

  • Signing up to receive newsletters

  • Buying products from the shop

  • Signing up to events

  • Helping by filling in a survey

We receive that information because it allows us to fulfill your request and communicate with you about it, but also to help us make sure we contact you about the right things at the right time and can thank you for anything you have done for us.

This information is retained and used in accordance with existing laws, rules, regulations, and other policies. Road 2 Recovery UK does not collect personal information from you unless you provide it to us. If you choose not to provide any of that information, we may not be able to fulfill your request or complete your order, but you will still be free to browse the other sections of the websites owned and administered by Road 2 Recovery UK. This means that you can visit our site without telling us who you are or revealing any personally identifiable information about yourself.

What we do with this information

When you tell us things about yourself, we use it for the purpose you gave it to us for. We sometimes have to share that with outside parties - for example to a hotel you are staying in if you are at an overseas event. But, we will only do that when it is necessary to complete that order, and outside parties will only be able to use it for the exact purpose we give it to them for.

On occasion we use email addresses to promote products we think will be of interest to you through digital channels. In addition we use this data to create lookalike audiences across these advertising channels. We may also choose to advertise to people who visit our website, via retargeting.

Should any material changes be made to the ways in which we use personally identifiable information, Road 2 Recovery UK will take commercially reasonable measures to obtain email consent from you. We will also post the changes to our use of personally identifiable information on our site at least 30 days prior to a change.

Our commitment to data security

Personally identifiable information is stored on our server and is not publicly accessible. Further, personally identifiable information is only accessed by Road 2 Recovery UK staff on a "need to know" basis. To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

You can update your information or opt out whenever you like.

We really only want to send things to people who want to receive them, so if at any point after you've registered you want to stop receiving emails from us you can. Just let us know. The same goes for updating us with new details. Just let us know and we'll make sure we're sending the right things to the right places.

Send us an email on johnbrame80@gmail.com

Online transactions

The cost of all products we sell, whether event registration or merchandise, can vary from time to time, so do check the prices before confirming the purchase. Sometimes they can run out too. Also, we can choose to refuse to accept a purchase or registration at any time.

Refunds

We will refund any registrations, tickets, product ordered through our website for the first 7 days after you purchase them. After that all registrations are non-refundable.

Credit Cards

We do not store any credit or debit card details at all after we take payment through our website.

What is Gift Aid?

Under the Gift Aid scheme, we can reclaim an extra 25% in tax on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer.

We are not permitted to reclaim Gift Aid on donations made in return for goods, rights and services (eg tickets to events, raffles or auctions), as they are not 'freewill' gifts. If we decide a donation has been marked as 'Gift Aidable' incorrectly, we will need to refund it to the donor.

When you donate, you will be asked to confirm whether or not you are a UK taxpayer. Please note that tax can only be reclaimed on donations made by individuals who pay UK income or capital gains tax at least equal to the amount reclaimed on their donations in the current tax year. If you are not a UK taxpayer, you can still make a donation, but your donation will not attract Gift Aid.
