Home > Privacy Policy

Magic Breakfast is committed to working with schools to provide children in deprived areas with a free, healthy breakfast to ensure they start the day with the right fuel for learning. We are dependent on the generosity of our supporters to fund our work.  We are committed to protecting your privacy and the personal information we obtain about you, whether you are simply visiting the Magic Breakfast website, or are a volunteer, an individual, school, charitable trust or company interested in financially supporting Magic Breakfast. This Privacy Policy (together with our terms and conditions) sets out the basis on which any personal data or information we collect from you, or that you provide to us, will be processed by us.

We will collect and use individual user details only where we have a legitimate reason and are legally entitled to do so in accordance with data privacy laws including the UK Data Protection Act 1998 (the Act) and General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). For the purposes of the Act and GDPR, the Data Controller for the Magic Breakfast website is Magic Breakfast, Fora, 42-46 Princelet St, London, E1 5LP. Magic Breakfast is registered charity number 1102510 in England and SC048202 in Scotland. Magic Outcomes Company Number: 04977015. 

As a fundraising organisation, we undertake in-house research and from time to time engage specialist agencies to gather information about you from publicly available sources, for example, Companies House, the Electoral Register, company websites, social networks such as Linkedin, political and property registers and news archives.
 
We may also carry out wealth screening to fast track the research using our trusted third party partners. You will always have the right to opt out of this processing. We may also carry out research using publicly available information to identify individuals who may have an affinity to our cause but with whom we are not already in touch. This may include people connected to our current major supporters, trustees or other lead volunteers. We also use publicly available sources to carry out due diligence on donors in line with the charity’s Gift Acceptance Policy and to meet money laundering regulations.
 
This research helps us to understand more about you as an individual so we can focus conversations we have with you about fundraising and volunteering in the most effective way, and ensure that we provide you with an experience as a donor or potential donor which is appropriate for you.
 
If you would prefer us not to use your data in this way, please email us at info@magicbreakfast.com or call us on 020 7836 5434
