The form asks for your name, email address, an optional phone number, the subject of your message and the message itself. We use this only to reply to you and to run our work. The form is handled by Netlify, our website host, who store the message and send it to us by email. We will not sell your details or share them for marketing.

Our legal basis for using your information

We rely on one or more of the following, depending on why we hold the information: your consent, a contract with you, a legal obligation, protecting someone's vital interests, or our legitimate interests in running Kinect safely and well. Where we hold safeguarding information, we may also rely on additional lawful conditions under Article 9 of UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

How long we keep it

We only keep personal information for as long as we need it for running Kinect, safeguarding, insurance or funding purposes. After that, it is securely deleted or destroyed.

Photographs and videos

We only publish photographs or videos of children and young people with written permission from a parent or carer. The photographs on this website show hands and activities only, not faces.
