Our privacy policy

What happens when you give us your personal details
We only make a note of your personal details when you choose to give them to us. The information we collect is then used in the following ways:

  • To make sure we have an accurate record of all donations received
  • To carry out research on our donors' demographics, interests and behaviour
  • To email you with the news and information (only if you have expressly asked for this)

How we protect your personal details

To protect the rights of everyone using our website, we comply to the United Kingdom Data Protection Act 1998. These are strict security procedures relating to the storage and disclosure of information that you have given us, to prevent unauthorised access or loss of such information. If you would like a full copy of this act, just click here

For additional protection we also use secure server software (SSL) to encrypt financial information you send to us from our website. This encrypts all of your personal information, including credit card number, name and address, so that your details cannot be read as they are transferred to us over the internet. While we cannot ensure or guarantee that loss, misuse or alteration of information will not occur, we use our best efforts to prevent this.

Please note that as we are not registered medical practitioners and do not directly deliver eye care in the countries in which we work, but work with local partners, we are not able to respond to any questions regarding medical issues. Please contact your health service provider for medical advice.
