Privacy Policy

Last updated October 16, 2026

Effective date: October 16, 2026

This policy explains how The Kevin Babington Foundation collects, uses, and shares information when you use our website.

Information you give us

Contact form: We collect your name, contact details, and message to respond to your request. Your submission goes to our team by email.
Chat: We collect the messages you type. If you choose to share them, this can include your name, email address, phone number, address, and details about the work you need.
Newsletter sign-up: The email address you enter is sent to the email service. We send marketing emails.
Payments: Card payments are processed by Stripe or the shop checkout. We do not store full card numbers. Stripe receives payment details and device information to process payments and help prevent fraud.

Chat messages and AI replies

Our chat assistant uses Anthropic's AI service to generate replies. Your messages and any details you provide are sent to our team. We and our marketing agency, AQ Marketing, keep the chat transcript and the details you share so we can follow up.

Information collected automatically

When you use our website, we collect your IP address, browser and device type, pages visited, and time on site. Our tools use this information to measure website use, count visits, understand how you arrived, measure advertising, host and deliver pages, and protect the website and its forms.

Akismet checks form submissions for spam. Your form submission, IP address, and browser details are sent to Akismet for that check. Cloudflare Turnstile checks whether form submissions come from a person rather than an automated bot.

Who receives information

Information is shared with the providers that support our website: hosting and delivery providers, security and spam-filtering services, analytics and advertising providers, payment processors, an email newsletter service, chat and AI services, and providers of fonts, icons, videos, and other embedded content. Some receive information directly from your browser when it requests their content. The table below identifies these tools and their purposes.

We do not sell personal information. We do share information for targeted advertising. Other parties may collect personal information about your online activities over time and across different websites when you use our website.

Cookies and your choices

Analytics and advertising tools stay off until you click "Accept all" on the cookie banner or scroll the page while the banner is showing. Scrolling while the banner is showing counts as accepting them. Use the "Cookie settings" link at the bottom of any page to switch analytics or advertising cookies off, or back on, at any time.

Our website does not respond to browser Do Not Track signals. We honor Global Privacy Control signals. You can also change your analytics and advertising cookie choices through "Cookie settings" at the bottom of any page.

Our cookie banner remembers your cookie choices. If you allow analytics, your browser may also send this website a list of the names of cookies and similar storage it holds for this site, at most once a day. It does not send their contents. The list is not stored with anything that identifies you and is used only to keep the Cookie Policy accurate.

Embedded content

Some pages show embedded content from other services, such as videos, maps, social media posts, or reviews. Your browser requests this content from its provider. The provider receives request information and may use its own cookies or browser storage. The site cookie banner does not control the provider's embedded frame. YouTube and Vimeo receive requests when your browser loads their players and videos. Elfsight receives your IP address and browser details when its widgets load.
