Interactive services
We may from time to time provide interactive services on our site, including, without limitation:

Chat rooms.

-
Forums
Where we do provide any interactive service, we will provide clear information to you about the kind of service offered, if it is moderated and what form
of moderation is used (including whether it is human or technical).
We will do our best to assess any possible risks for users (and in particular, for children) from third parties when they use any interactive service
provided on our site, and we will decide in each case whether it is appropriate to use moderation of the relevant service (including what kind of
moderation to use) in the light of those risks. However, we are under no obligation to oversee, monitor or moderate any interactive service we provide on
our site, and we expressly exclude our liability for any loss or damage arising from the use of any interactive service by a user in contravention of our

The use of any of our interactive services by a minor is subject to the consent of their parent or guardian. We advise parents who permit their children to
use an interactive service that it is important that they communicate with their children about their safety online, as moderation is not foolproof. Minors
who are using any interactive service should be made aware of the potential risks to them.
Where we do moderate an interactive service, we will normally provide you with a means of contacting the moderator, should a concern or difficulty arise.

INFORMATION ABOUT OUR USE OF COOKIES
Our website uses cookies to distinguish you from other users of our websites dsd.me (our site(s)). This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse our website
and also allows us to improve our site. By continuing to browse the site, you are agreeing to our use of cookies.
A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that we store on your browser or the hard drive of your computer if you agree. Cookies contain information
that is transferred to your computer's hard drive.
We use the following cookies:
-
Strictly necessary cookies.
These are cookies that are required for the operation of our website. They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into secure areas of
our website, use a shopping cart or make use of e-billing services.
-
Analytical/performance cookies.
They allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around our website when they are using it. This helps us to
improve the way our website works, for example, by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for easily.
-
Functionality cookies.
These are used to recognise you when you return to our website. This enables us to personalise our content for you, greet you by name and remember your
preferences (for example, your choice of language or region).
-
Targeting cookies.
These cookies record your visit to our website, the pages you have visited and the links you have followed. We will use this information to make our
website and the advertising displayed on it more relevant to your interests. We may also share this information with third parties for this purpose.
Cookies may also be distinguished as follows:
-
Session cookies.
Cookies that expire at the end of a browser session, that is when the user exits the browser. They allow website operators to link the actions of users
during a single browser session to allow them to use the website most efficiently. For instance, session cookies enable a website to remember that a
user has placed items in an on-line shopping basket. As these cookies are not usually stored beyond the browser session, they are usually considered
less privacy intrusive.
-
Persistent cookies.
These are stores on the user's equipment between browsing sessions. They therefore enable the website operator to "recognise" the user on his or her
return, to remember the user's preferences and to tailor services to them. They may also be used to track the user's browsing activity across different
websites and to build up a detailed profile of the user's browsing behaviour for targeting advertising, but we do not use any
cookies (persistent or otherwise) for this purpose.
-
First-party cookies
. Cookies planted by the website operator. This involves assigning a unique identity to the user by setting the cookie to either the user's browser
and/or the user's hard drive with a view to tracking the user's journey on the website. First-party cookies are commonly used by website operators for
session management, personalisation and recognition purposes, where the information transmitted by the cookie is later combined with the personal
information the user has supplied in the course of a sale or other contact. We will not sell to third parties for the purpose
of marketing, any information we gather about you from our first-party cookies.
-
Third-party cookies
. Cookies planted by parties other than the website operator. In practice, many website operators will reserve visual space on their website in return
for a fee paid by an advertising network provider. We will not allow any third party cookies to be planted through our
website. We will only use third party cookies where they are strictly necessary cookies, analytical/performance cookies, or functionality cookies.
Please note that third parties (including, for example, advertising networks and providers of external services like web traffic analysis services) may
also use cookies, over which we have no control. These cookies are likely to be analytical/performance cookies or targeting cookies.
You block cookies by activating the setting on your browser that allows you to refuse the setting of all or some cookies. However, if you use your browser
settings to block all cookies (including essential cookies) you may not be able to access all or parts of our site.
All cookies will expire no later than two months after your last use of our site.

Uses made of the information
We use information held about you in the following ways:
- Information you give to us. We will use this information:
-
- to carry out our obligations arising from any contracts entered into between you and us and to provide you with the information, products and services that you request from us;

If you are an existing customer, we will only contact you by electronic means (e-mail or SMS) with information about goods and services similar to those which were the subject of a previous sale or negotiations of a sale to you. If you are a new customer, and where we permit selected third parties to use your data, we (or they) will contact you by electronic means only if you have consented to this. If you do not want us to use your data (the order/registration/subscription form) in this way, or to pass your details on to third parties for marketing purposes, please tick the relevant box situated on the form on which we collect your data (the order registration subscription form);
- to notify you about changes to our service;
- to ensure that content from our site is presented in the most effective manner for you and for your computer.
- Information we collect about you. We will use this information:

Data will be reviewed periodically and deleted where there is no compelling reason for its continued processing.
Disclosure of your information
We may share your personal information with any member of our group, which means our subsidiaries, our ultimate holding company and its subsidiaries, as defined in section 1159 of the UK Companies Act 2006.
We will not share any data which could identify you with a third party, except where your programme has been made available to you by a third party such as an employer, healthcare provider, partner organisation, or coach you are working with. Then we may share your name and email address with them. This is so they can audit the number of people who have taken up a programme.
We may share your data, but only in an anonymised form, with selected third parties including:
- Clients, business partners, suppliers and sub-contractors for the performance of any contract we enter into with them or you.
- Analytics and search engine providers that assist us in the improvement and optimisation of our site.
When sharing anonymised data with third parties we frequently break this down by dataset e.g. geography, age, stress levels. This kind of anonymised data is often shared so that a third party knows if a Do Something Different programme is having a positive impact on the group of people they have sponsored.
If we provide anonymised data to a third party that has also been supplied with identifying data ( ie your name and email address for auditing purposes) the two types of data will not be linked and to make sure individuals cannot be identified, we will only provide information when there are at least 10 people in any dataset. All the third party will know is that across ten people, weight has decreased by X, or stress levels have decreased by Y - they will not see any examples linked to identifying data.
We may disclose your personal information to third parties:
- In the event that we sell or buy any business or assets, if this is reasonably necessary for such sale or purchase.
- If DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT LIMITED or substantially all of its assets are acquired by a third party, in which case personal data held by it about its customers will be one of the transferred assets.
- If we are under a duty to disclose or share your personal data in order to comply with any legal obligation, or in order to enforce or apply our terms of use or terms and conditions of supply and other agreements; or to protect the rights, property, or safety of DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT LIMITED, our customers, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organisations for the purposes of fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
