Information we collect

We collect information that you give us directly through the forms on this website:

• Join / volunteer enquiries — your name, email, the type of interest, and any message you choose to send.
• Newsletter sign-ups — your email address and, if you provide it, your name.
• Membership and donations — when you join or donate, our payment provider (Hostinger) processes the transaction and may share details such as your name and email so we can manage your membership or donation.
• Account login — your email address and a password you choose, used to access your membership account.

We also collect limited technical information automatically, such as the pages you visit, only where you have allowed analytics cookies. See our Cookie Policy .

How we use your information

• To respond to your enquiry about joining or volunteering.
• To send you the newsletter you signed up for (you can unsubscribe at any time).
• To manage your membership, process donations, and provide account access.
• To improve the website, where you have allowed analytics cookies.
• To meet legal or regulatory obligations that apply to a registered political party.

Legal basis

We process your information on the basis of your consent (for example when you sign up to the newsletter or accept analytics cookies), to take steps at your request before joining a membership or making a donation, and for our legitimate interests in running the party and communicating with supporters. [Confirm the precise legal bases with your data adviser.]

Sharing your information

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with service providers who help us run the website and process payments, and where we are required to by law. These may include:

• Hostinger — website hosting, payment and subscription management.
• Email / newsletter tools — [insert provider, if any], used to deliver the newsletter.
• Analytics providers — only where you have allowed analytics cookies. [Insert provider, if any.]

How long we keep your information

We keep personal information only as long as we need it for the purpose it was collected. For example, newsletter sign-ups are kept until you unsubscribe, and membership records are kept for as long as you remain a member (and for a short period afterwards for accounting purposes). [Confirm specific retention periods with your data adviser.]

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access the information we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, object to certain processing, or withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that has already taken place.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below. We may need to verify your identity before responding.
