We may collect personal information about you including your name, phone number, address, email address, school you are contacting us for and your role. We collect information about you to enable us to;

  • Provide you with information about the Sir John Kirwan Foundation or Mitey;
  • Register you for Mitey;
  • Provide you with Mitey resources and any technical support;
  • To provide you with information about upcoming events and/or news;
  • To contact you about our research or donor fundraising initiatives. We will allow you to opt in before receiving any unsolicited content. If you opt in we will also give you the opportunity to opt out of receiving such content; and
  • To communicate with you via email.

We will only use your personal information for the purpose it is collected. We will not share, sell, rent or disclose your personal information or disclose your information to any other individual or organisation unless you have agreed or information is being given to organisers of your school so they may respond to the needs you may have with Mitey or there are concerns for the wellbeing of yourself or others and sharing of the information will improve the safety or wellbeing of yourself or others.

We will take all reasonable steps to protect the personal information that we hold from misuse, loss, or unauthorised access. We do this by using firewalls, password access, secure servers and storing this information at Mitey in passworded systems.

You may request access to any personal information we hold about you at any time by contacting us using an enquiry form on our website. There may be instances where we cannot grant you access to the personal information we hold. For example, we may need to refuse access if granting access would interfere with the privacy of others. If that happens, we will give you written reasons for any refusal.

If you believe that the personal information, we hold about you is incorrect, incomplete or inaccurate, then you may request us to amend it. We will consider if the information requires amendment. If we do not agree that there are grounds for amendment, then we will add a note to the personal information stating that you disagree with it.
