We are committed to protecting your privacy and will only use the information that we collect about you lawfully. This privacy notice is intended to give you an understanding of how and why we use the information you give us.
Our website Axios Senior Citizens Foundation or any related website incorporating the subdomain https://axiosscf.org, are owned and operated by Axios Senior Citizens Foundation.
You may contact our Data Protection Officer at any time about your data privacy matters. If you have any questions about this privacy notice you can contact info@axiosscf.org, or write to Axios Senior Citizens Foundation, Beida Basic Schools,

We may update this policy from time to time without notice to you, so please check it regularly.
How we collect information about you
We may collect information from you in the following ways when:
If you interact with us in one of the ways listed above, we may collect and process personal information about you such as:
We may also collect sensitive personal information about you, such as details about a health condition or disability, where it will mean we can communicate with you appropriately in the future. We may also collect this information if you plan to attend an event.
When your political affiliation or religious beliefs are of public knowledge, we may also record that information against your profile. If they are not in the public domain, we will only do so where we have your consent or drawn this specifically to your attention.
When you attend an event or activity, we may take photographs and videos of you. Your image may be used in print and digital formats, including print publications, websites, film and social media. We will always inform you if photography or filming is being carried out by us at an event. Event participants have the right to decide whether their images are taken and how these may be used and stored by us.
Where you become a sponsor through Chosen, any images we have of you may be viewed not just in the Nigeria but also in some overseas countries where Axios Senior Citizens Foundation operates, and which may not provide the same level of protection to the rights of individuals as Nigeria legislation provides.
Your information may be given to us by third parties, for example fundraising sites. They will do so pursuant to their own policies on data protection and privacy. It is a good idea to check their privacy policy when you provide your information to them to fully understand how they will process your data and may share it with others.
How we use your information and on what basis
The Data Protection Act 2018 requires organisations to have a valid lawful basis in order to process personal data. Generally, Axios Senior Citizens Foundation will process your data on one or more of the following lawful bases:
For example, we rely on legitimate interests for activities such as: sending marketing communications by post or telephone (unless you have told us that you would prefer not to hear from us in this way), contacting you as a representative of an organisation about a charity partnership or in order to organise an event, and analysing your interaction with us to improve our internal business processes.
We will process your data for one or more of the following reasons:
Where the law allows us to do so and to improve the quality and accuracy of the information you have provided to us, we regularly check the accuracy of the data we already hold about you (such as your telephone number, email address or address) against external data lists which are in the public domain. We may also use third parties to check this on our behalf. If we obtain updated details, we will combine this with the information we currently hold about you.
We may use unautomated profiling and screening techniques to analyse your personal information and create a profile about you, your interests and preferences from publicly available information. The types of information collected about you from the public domain will include:
Occasionally we may use the information you provide to us to improve the accuracy and relevancy of any digital advertising you receive. This could include securely providing contact details such as your name and email address to digital advertising networks or social media companies such as Facebook, Google and Twitter. We may also use your information to enable us to display adverts to potential supporters who have similar characteristics to you, such as lookalike audiences. Information shared with third parties is always carried out in accordance with data protection laws and regulations.
You can stop your information being used for this by contacting us.
Where you have asked us not to use your information for targeted digital advertising, you may still see adverts related to Axios Senior Citizens Foundation. This is because certain social media sites or advertising networks may select you based on information they hold, such as your age and location, or websites you have visited, without using information that has been provided by us.
Where is your information stored?
Axios Senior Citizens Foundation has appropriate physical, technical and procedural safeguards in place in relation to the storage of data.
Information about you will usually be stored in the Axios Senior Citizens Foundation, Nigeria. In cases where we need to store data outside Nigeria, we will use reasonable endeavours to ensure the recipient of the data implements GDPR-compliant measures to protect your information.
Online payment transactions will be encrypted. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of our site, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone.
The transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure (though note that online payment transactions are securely encrypted). Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our site; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.
How long do we keep your data?
We will process and retain your data only for as long as is reasonable and necessary in line with our data retention policy. In determining the duration, we will follow legal and regulatory guidelines. If you withdraw your permission for us to keep your personal data, please be aware that we will inform you if we are unable to do so due to overriding legal obligations.
Who do we share your data with?
We may allow our staff, consultants and/or external providers acting on our behalf to access and use your information for the purposes for which you have provided it to us. We will only provide them with the information they need to deliver the relevant service. We will ensure your information is transferred securely and treated with the same diligence as if we were handling it directly.
We do not sell your data to third parties. In other cases, we will not share your personal data with third parties except in accordance with this privacy notice or where we have your permission.
We may disclose your information to other organisations and agencies if we are under a duty to disclose or share it to comply with any legal obligation, or to enforce or apply any agreements; or to protect the rights, property or safety of us or others.
In accordance with our Safeguarding Policy and our commitment to protect vulnerable children from all forms of exploitation and abuse, we may share details, including personal data, relating to serious breaches of our Safeguarding Policy and Procedures with statutory authorities such as the police.

Instructions for unsubscribing from emails are included in each email we send.
If you are unhappy with the way we have processed your personal data, please contact our Data Protection Officer. If you remain unhappy with how your complaint is dealt with you should contact the Information Commissioner’s Office. You are entitled to make a complaint to the Information Commissioner’s Office without first referring your complaint to us.
