Personal information submitted to us via this website will be used for the purposes specified in this privacy policy or in relevant parts of the website.
We may use your personal information to:
- enable your use of the services available on the website;

We may use your personal information (including your name and contact details) to keep our database up to date and for analysis. Cardboard Citizens is a charity and we may use the data we hold on our database to better understand our stakeholders, including for fundraising purposes. This can be based on data provided by you or publicly available sources. We may share your personal information with other organisations for research and analysis purposes, but will not share data with any third parties for any purposes other than those that will benefit Cardboard Citizens and our Members, and help improve our services. We require that such organisations meet our standards for handling data, and that it is only used for the agreed purpose.
