Hey all.
Perhaps it would be worth some clarifying the Thanks-Gift-Aid page to the
extent that (with the exception of email address) all fields are necessary
for the purpose of claiming GiftAid, and/or that the information provided
will only be used for that purpose and then destroyed (or whatever the
reality of the matter is).
If anyone is wondering, the page in question is here [1].
Well, it won't be destroyed - it has to be kept in case HMRC decide to
do an audit.
There is a very small link at the very bottom of the page to the
privacy policy [2] - it wouldn't hurt to link to it somewhere more
prominently.
