GIFT AID
I would like to take advantage of the Gift Aid Scheme to enable Disney & District U3A to reclaim 25p on every £1 of your Membership contributions. Please treat as Gift Aid donations I make in the future or have made in the past 4 years to Disney & District U3A. I confirm I have paid or will pay an amount of Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax for each tax year (6 April to 5 April) that is at least equal to the amount of tax that all charities will reclaim on my gifts for that tax year. I understand that other taxes such as VAT and Council Tax do not qualify. Please notify Disney & District U3A if you wish to cancel this declaration or if you no longer pay sufficient income or capital gains tax. Note: If you pay Income Tax at the higher or additional rate and want to receive the additional tax relief due to you, you must include all your Gift Aid donations on your Self-Assessment tax return or ask HM Revenue and Customs to adjust your tax code.
DATA PROTECTION POLICY
Disney & District U3A has implemented a Policy in order to comply with requirements under the Data Protection Act in connection with the holding and dissemination of personal data. The Committee is responsible for monitoring that this Policy is being correctly applied, and each Member is responsible for adhering to this Policy.
PERSONAL DATA
Disney & District U3A website holds some personal data about each member: Title, Names, Address, Phone Number/s, email Address and Emergency Contact Numbers. The Web Master; the Prime Administrator and other Committee Members nominated by the Prime Administrator have access to Members contact details. Non-members cannot access any of the above information. Members on 'log-in' can see the names of Group Leaders and Committee Members but not their contact details unless specifically authorised. The Membership Secretary maintains a separate database on a PC for printing labels, sending emails and holding details of subscription payments etc. The personal information held there replicates data held on the website. Hard copy signed membership forms are also held by the Membership Secretary in accordance with Gift Aid regulations.
NATIONAL U3A
Names and addresses of members are passed to the National Office for circulation of 'Third Age Matters' and similar publications from the National Office. No other information from the database is made available outside Disney & District U3A.
RETENTION
Information regarding Gift Aid donations is retained for as long as required under HMRC regulations; other data is retained for one year after the member resigns. Members authorised to receive personal information from the database must take reasonable precautions to keep this information secure and confidential. Members must take care not to disclose to unauthorised parties the information intentionally or otherwise, and must ensure that any information received or gathered is destroyed once the purpose for which it was provided is fulfilled.
