Why data protection matters here

People who engage with Lifted Life often share sensitive information — about their mental health, their struggles, their prayers, their stories. That information is shared in trust, and we have a duty to protect it.

We comply with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 — not just because it is the law, but because responsible data handling is part of how we care for the people we serve.

Our data protection principles

• Lawfulness, fairness and transparency. We process personal data only when we have a lawful basis, and we are clear about what we collect and why.
• Purpose limitation. We collect data only for specific, stated purposes — not “just in case” or for undefined future uses.
• Data minimisation. We collect only what we need. If we don’t need your date of birth, we won’t ask for it.
• Accuracy. We keep personal data accurate and up to date, and we make it easy for you to correct information.
• Storage limitation. We don’t keep data forever. When we no longer need it, we delete it securely.
• Security. We protect data against unauthorised access, loss or damage using appropriate technical and organisational measures.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law, you have rights over your personal data:

• Access — request a copy of the data we hold about you.
• Rectification — ask us to correct inaccurate data.
• Erasure — ask us to delete your data (“right to be forgotten”).
• Restriction — ask us to limit how we use your data.
• Portability — receive your data in a portable format.
• Objection — object to certain types of processing.
