How/why we analyse your information for targeting and profiling purposes

Direct Marketing and Fundraising

We will contact you in line with your preferences to keep you up to date with the latest news and progress we make worldwide with our programmes, to ask for additional donations or other forms of support and other updates including events, campaigns, patient stories and other information we deem useful to share.

Our donation forms have clear marketing preference questions which also include how you amend your marketing preferences or may opt out of future marketing.

You can inform us of your preferences via the marketing preference questions which you can find on print donation forms, online donation pages and or when asked while making a phone donation. Alternatively, you can let us know by contacting us on:
Email: info@operationsmile.org.uk
Telephone: 020 3475 5126
Post: Operation Smile United Kingdom, Unit A, Genoa House, Juniper Drive, London, SW18 1FY

We will not sell, share, or rent this information to others except as in meeting our objectives through for example third party outsource contracts/data processors or to the extent as required by law. Third-party contractors/agents are expected to meet our standards and are required to abide by our policies whenever we share or transfer information as agreed.

Segmenting and Targeting

We target supporters by type of supporter, levels of giving based on giving history, when the supporter last donated and how engaged the supporter is within certain communication methods.

We also use a solution called Dataro which is a propensity modelling software that uses machine learning technology to generate predictions about how donors are likely to behave.

These approaches enable OSUK to better target campaigns and mailings which may be of interest to that individual and get involved.

Special Events

We may invite supporters or key stakeholders to certain events OSUK is organising. The approach would involve looking at type of supporters or stakeholders, whether certain individuals have attended events in the past and the geographical location of the supporters or stakeholders to determine whom should be invited.

Data Analysis

We will analyse using data such as giving history, type of supporter, frequency of giving, method of giving, geographical information, communication preferences, propensity scoring and other information we deem important to the data we are analysing.

We also use a solution called Fundraising Intelligence from Dataro to enhance our business intelligence and have the ability to benchmark to similar organisations.

This allows us to identify whether a particular campaign has been successful or not, identify key trends and any other key learnings of the donor base which can impact key decisions in relation to marketing and spending funds in order to raise awareness and raise further funds.

Data Matching

We may combine personal information provided to us alongside data obtained from external sources to help better understand the social, demographic, and financial characteristics of our supporters.

This information is used to better meet your needs with regards to more tailored communication or the needs of others like you based on the information we gain from the profile we build.

We will not use this data in any way that might intrude upon an individual’s rights or be considered inappropriate.

Major Donor Analysis

Operation Smile United Kingdom may identify individuals who are deemed a “major donor” or “high level donor”. We identify this by:

  • analysing donors who fall within a specific giving level within a certain time frame or over a lifetime
  • Geographical information we hold on our database
  • Researching an individual and capturing information available publicly
  • Any key information the individual has provided us over time at their own accord

Any supporter who fit the “major donor” or “high level donor” criteria will be targeted with tailored communications, special invites to events and other bespoke communication.

Look-a-Like Audiences

We may also use existing donor data to build “lookalike” audiences, to reach more individuals who might be interested in Operation Smile United Kingdom.

Prospect Research

As a fundraising organisation, we undertake in-house research and from time to time engage specialist agencies such as Prospecting for Gold to gather information about you from publicly available sources, for example, Companies House, the Electoral Register, company websites, ‘rich lists’, 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. 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.

Social Media

You may have given us permission to contact you by using your email address and as such we may use your email address to participate in Facebook’s “Custom Audience” program which allows us to display adverts to existing or new supporters via the Facebook platform.

The email addresses are used to determine whether you are an existing Facebook account holder or not and if adverts will be shown via your Facebook feed.

Further information on Facebook’s custom audiences and data policies can be found below:

Automated Decision Making

Email

We use an email marketing platform called DotDigital which assigns email subscribers a contact score from 1 being the lowest to 100 being the highest. The score represents how engaged and suitable an email subscriber is to our email content and this is assigned automatically from DotDigital. Operation Smile uses this rating to tailor the messaging accordingly, donation amounts we may ask for and frequency of the emails sent to our email subscribers.

Direct Mail and other fundraising approaches

Operation Smile will make decisions on what messaging donors should receive, frequency of mailings and other fundraising campaigns, donation amounts we may ask for, personalised content on what is being sent based on previous giving history and other marketing approaches we feel may be appropriate.

The decisions will be based on how we profile our data which would include profiling donation history and recency of donations.

Opting out of profiling

Operation Smile United Kingdom is committed to putting you in control of your data so you are free to opt out of your information being used in any way above by below:

Legal basis for processing your data

Data protection laws mean that each use we make of personal information must have a ‘legal basis’. The relevant legal bases are set out in the General Data Protection Regulation (EU Regulation 2016/679) and in current UK data protection legislation.

Specific Consent

This is where we have asked you to provide specified consent to us to use your personal information in a certain way e.g. via telephone, email, or SMS. You have the right to withdraw consent for any future use of your information for this purpose at any time.

Legal Obligation

We may need to collect, process, and disclose personal information to comply with a legal obligation.

These will include third party agencies and regulators such as Charity Commission, Fundraising Regulator, Information Commissioner or HMRC.

Performance of a contract

We also have a legal basis to collect and process data on you in the performance of a contract. For example, if you purchase something from our online Smile Shop or agree to work for us, we need to be able to process your information for the purpose of meeting our contractual obligations.

Legitimate Interest

When we use our legitimate interests as the legal basis for processing your personal information, we consider and balance any potential impact on you as well as your rights under data protection laws. We would not use your personal information in a manner that would be deemed overly intrusive to you.

We will use legitimate interest as the legal basis for processing for the following for e.g.:

  • Sending postal communication we feel may be of interest to you or for administrative purposes i.e. Direct Debit confirmation letter, Gift Aid confirmation wording etc…
  • Profile and analyse supporters based on the information we hold already providing we have done a legitimate interest assessment
  • Updating your address using third party sources if you have moved away
  • Updating mortality status of deceased supporters to prevent further communications being sent
  • Better understand how people interact with our website
  • Promoting Operation Smile United Kingdom on social media, Google, YouTube and other online platforms
  • Research or evaluating to assess beneficiaries suitable for our medical surgeries/programmes
  • Administer, review, and keep of people we work with
  • Sharing within relevant teams such as third-party event organisers

We may source contact information from trustworthy third-party data providers which may be used for marketing and awareness purposes including direct mailing. This would be processed under legitimate interest.

Managing your contact details and communication preferences

If your personal details change, please help us to keep your information up to date by notifying us. We make it easy for you to tell us how you want us to communicate with you. Our forms have clear marketing preference questions, and we include information on how to opt out when we send marketing information. If you don’t want to hear from us, you can change your preferences at any time using any of the options below:
Phone: 020 3475 5126
Email: info@operationsmile.org.uk
Post: Operation Smile United Kingdom, Unit A, Genoa House, Juniper Drive, London SW18 1FY

For email marketing you may amend/unsubscribe from email communications at the bottom of any email you receive. The options available to you will be update your preferences or unsubscribe from this list.

Please be aware that if you decide that you no longer want to be contacted for marketing purposes, we may still need to contact you for other purposes such as processing a donation for which you’ve made a related gift aid declaration, or keeping you in touch about volunteering activities you are undertaking for OSUK.

How long is your information kept for?

Storage of information is important to us as is your privacy.

We will only retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for by law. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal information, the purposes for which we process your personal information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements. Where we provide personal information to third parties, we have similar considerations when agreeing an appropriate retention period.

At the end of the retention period your information will either be securely and confidentially destroyed or anonymised. Anonymisation is the process of either encrypting or removing personal information from data sets, so that it is not possible to identify individuals from the data.

Who has access to your information?

We will not sell, share, or rent this information to others except in meeting our objectives through for example third party outsource contracts/data processors or to the extent as required by law. Third-party contractors/agents are expected to meet our standards and are required to abide by our policies whenever we share or transfer information as agreed.

We will endeavour to undertake privacy impact assessment whenever there is fundamental change in the way we process data, implement suitable records management systems, and log data security incidents. This will enable us to keep rigorous control of information held and your privacy.

Further information regarding your rights can also be found via the following ICO website link: https://ico.org.uk/your-data-matters/

How we keep your information safe

OSUK takes the care of your data very seriously and we use a combination of organisational and technological security measures to protect your personal information to the highest possible standards. This includes the use of secure servers, firewalls, virus & malware protection, secure socket layer (SSL) encryption and secure file transfer protocol for our work with third parties. We follow payment card industry (PCI) security compliance guidelines when processing credit card payments and ask our third -party suppliers to provide confirmation of their PCI compliance status on an annual basis.

We also have strict policies in place to use complex password structures and authentication technology to access Microsoft packages, DotDigital for email marketing, Stripe for payment information, Donorfy to access the fundraising database, Gravity Forms for online transactional data, banking services such as CAF or Barclays and plenty more third-party logins containing sensitive data.

Further to this, our offices are alarmed and monitored by an alarm servicing company to help minimise access to offline data.

PCI Compliance

We care about the safety and security of your transaction. We use high grade encryption and the https security protocol to communicate with your browser software. This method is the industry standard security protocol, which makes it extremely difficult for anyone else to intercept the card information you give us. Companies we work with to process card transactions also use high grade encryption and security protocols and are required to confirm their compliance status regularly.

OSUK is PCI Compliant and the monitoring of its web access point/ports is monitored by the IT team in Operation Smile Inc., UK consultants and/or Security Metrics Ltd. Non-compliance is immediately reported to us and we take all necessary steps to fix breaches at the earliest opportunity.

Trusted payment gateways such as Stripe and Sagepay are used to process credit card donations both online and over the phone respectively. Gravity Forms is used as the data capture mechanism to facilitate all online donations. All the above are fully GDPR and SCA compliant.

Cookies

Cookies are small pieces of information stored by your internet browser onto your computer or mobile device. OSUK uses session cookies to ensure that you can interact with our websites successfully; to find out more about our cookies policy and usage, please click here.

Third Party Request for Data

Except in exceptional circumstances (as outlined in this process) requests to change donor information including changes to direct debits, standing orders or any other kind of donation, can only be authorised by the donor.

We can only take instructions from a third-party with the express consent of the donor or on evidence of the relevant power of attorney. This is to safeguard the interests of the donor with whom we have a relationship.

A request by a third-party to remove a donor from our mailing list or change mailing preferences may be considered exceptionally if we are convinced the third-party is acting in the best interests of the donor. This may be a judgement based on the donor’s history of giving, any unusual changes in the level of their giving or frequency of giving and any communication we have had with the donor regarding their gifts or mailing preferences. Any direct communication from the donor –verbal or written- which gives concern that the donor may lack capacity to make a sound decision and/or judgement could be taken as support on this. In this context our telemarketing agencies who call on our behalf in fundraising campaigns record conversations with prospective donors and where there is a concern relating to mental capacity these recordings could be used by OSUK for final decision making.

Complaints

Please contact Operation Smile United Kingdom in the first instance requesting our Complaints policy and to give us a chance to resolve your complaint. Contact us on email at: info@operationsmile.org.uk or phone 0203 475 5126.

You may also make a complaint through the Fundraising Regulator or the Charity Commission as appropriate.

You may request a full copy of our complaints policy at any time.

Sharing your personal data

Where it is necessary for Operation Smile United Kingdom to transfer your information outside non-EU countries and to third party agents within the UK as disclosed in our purpose for collection, we will ensure that your information is protected to the same extent as in the European Union through one of the following safeguards:

  • Transfer to a non-EU country whose privacy legislation ensures an adequate level of protection of personal data as determined by the European Commission; or
  • Put in place a contract with the service provider/fundraising agent stipulating that they must protect personal data to the same standards required by the European Union and the United Kingdom.

And using a safe and secure transfer process including encryption where necessary.

Staff are encouraged to use computerised equipment and software provided by OSUK. Virtual logins will be password protected and where possible encourage a two-stage authentication process.

Where we are under a legal or regulatory duty to do so, we may disclose your details to the police, regulatory bodies or legal advisors, and/or, where we consider this necessary, to protect the rights, property or safety of Operation Smile United Kingdom, its personnel, visitors, users or others.

Where our collaborators run their operations outside the European Economic Area (EEA), we will take steps to make sure they provide an adequate level of protection in accordance with UK data protection law, and appropriate safeguards are in place.

Preventing fraudulent transactions

OSUK have added a script across every page of the website from a feature called Stripe Radar via our payment platform Stripe. This enables Stripe to better track malicious users as they navigate the site and will send signals onto Stripe which will improve the chances of preventing fraudulent transactions.

Operation Smile Inc

Operation Smile United Kingdom is part of the worldwide alliance that is Operation Smile Inc. (OSI) with other partners and foundations. We collaborate and fundraise to deliver the global strategic objective of delivering care, cleft surgery, and other surgical programmes.

We may therefore disclose your information to third parties in connection with the other purposes set out in this policy. These third parties may include:

  • charity partners, suppliers and sub-contractors who may process information on our behalf
  • evaluators and researchers who may monitor and evaluate information to prove or improve the quality of a service, project, or programme
  • if you are a researcher or medical volunteer, any external programme collaborator
  • if you are a legacy giver, we may share information with co-beneficiaries
  • advertisers and advertising networks
  • analytics and search engine providers
  • IT service providers
  • potential beneficiaries or funders of our programmes, who may be interested in your positive experiences

Whenever appropriate such information is anonymised and aggregated, so that no individual can be identified except where consent has been given.

We reserve the right to disclose your personal information to third parties in the event of OSUK winding up if required by law or a court order.

Data shared from third parties

Your information may be shared with us by third parties, which might include:

  • independent event organisers, for example the British 10k and fundraising sites like Just Giving or Enthuse;
  • professional fundraisers; and
  • subcontractors acting on our behalf who provide us with technical, payment or delivery services, our business partners, advertising networks analytics providers and search information providers.

You should check any privacy policy provided to you where you give your data to a third party.

Operation Smile United Kingdom is the sole owner of any information collected either as an organisation or by third-party on its behalf, web based or not.

Vulnerable person’s policy

We are committed to protecting vulnerable people and adhere to the following:

  • Listening to call recordings from data processors to ensure that individuals whom we believe, based on the conversation, do not have the mental capacity to make sound decisions on donating to OSUK have their gift cancelled or not processed.
  • Noting references in correspondence e.g. being forgetful, family concerns about their charitable spend or simply their handwriting and responding appropriately to these issues.
  • Taking on board concerns from third parties and generally being aware of mental capacity.

You may request a full copy of OSUK’s Child Protection Policy, which covers all vulnerable people, at any time by post, phone or via email.
