Sometimes we may combine your personal information with information available from other publicly available sources.
We do this for a number of reasons; for example so that we can send better communications more likely to interest you - or to provide an improved experience for our supporters and visitors. It also helps us to build a better long term relationship with all of the people who support us currently - or
who may do so in the future. Importantly, it enables us to raise more funds, more quickly and so support the wide and varied work that takes place at Butser Ancient Farm.
We may analyse geographic, demographic and other information relating to you and we may use additional information from third party sources when it is available. Such information is only compiled using publicly available information about you. Some examples of the resources we might use include:
Royal Mail National Change of Address database (NCOA);
Google maps

WealthEngine, a wealth intelligence database;
Reviewing employment information that you have made publicly available via social media;
Newspaper articles, publications and company websites;

6. How we protect your personal data
Butser Ancient Farm has implemented generally accepted standards of technology and operational security in order to protect personal data from loss, misuse, or unauthorised alteration or destruction.

Before any such disclosure takes place, the police are required to demonstrate that the personal information concerned is necessary for them to carry out a proper investigation. Each police request received by Butser Ancient Farm is dealt with on a strictly case-by-case basis to ensure that any such disclosure is lawful and carried out in accordance with relevant guidance issued by the Information Commissioner's Office.
