Privacy notice

IT’S POSSIBLE NOW is run by IT’S POSSIBLE NOW COMMUNITY INTEREST COMPANY, registered in the UK with company number 16430786. In this notice, “we” means that company. You can reach us at ashraf@ipncic.com or on +44 7955 356126.

Only what you type into the form on this site. Depending on how you tell us you would like to be involved, that is:

• your name and email address
• your phone number, if you give us one
• the town or city you are based in
• how you would like to be involved, and which route interests you
• the kind of organisation you represent, if you represent one
• how you would prefer us to contact you
• anything you tell us would make contact easier
• anything else you choose to write in the message box

Our website host records technical information such as your IP address as part of serving the page and protecting the form from automated abuse. We do not use analytics or advertising cookies, and we do not track you across other websites.

We do not ask for or store a diagnosis, a condition, or any medical or health information. The form has no field or question that asks for it. If you mention something of that kind anyway, you can ask us to delete it and we will.

You might tell us about a contact adjustment: a different format, more time, someone else in the conversation. We treat that as an instruction about how to reach you. We use it for that and nothing else.

To reply to you, and to work out what the first pilot needs to include. That is the whole purpose. We do not sell your details, we do not add you to a marketing list unless you tick the separate box asking for email updates, and we do not build a public directory of the people who register.

If you use the form on Offer funding or become a funding partner, we keep your organisation’s details and your name, work email, role and message, so we can reply and discuss the support you describe. We send one email with a link to confirm your address. Confirming it changes nothing else about your enquiry.

Before any agreement or public listing, our staff check your organisation’s details against public records, such as Companies House or the charity register, and against its official website. We may contact your organisation through its own published contact details. We record what we checked, when, and who checked it. We name an organisation on this website only with its written consent, and we never publish your contact details.

Consent. You tick a box before the form will send, and that consent is the basis on which we hold and use what you sent. You can withdraw it at any time, and withdrawing it does not affect anything we did while it was in place.

Until we have set up the first pilot and contacted you about it, and in any case no longer than two years from the day you send the form. After that we delete it. If you ask us to delete it sooner, we do that instead.

The people at the company who run IT’S POSSIBLE NOW. We use ordinary website hosting and email services to receive and store what you send, and those providers can technically access it in the course of running their service. Nobody else sees it. We will not pass your details to an employer, a funder, a council or any other organisation without asking you first and getting your answer.

Under UK data protection law you can ask us to:

• tell you what we hold about you, and give you a copy
• correct anything that is wrong
• delete what we hold
• stop using it, or limit how we use it
• send it to you, or to someone else, in a portable format
• stop contacting you, by withdrawing your consent

We will not charge you for any of this, and we will answer within one month.

Use the contact form and choose “I have a general question”. Tell us what you want us to do: see what we hold, correct it, or delete it. We will do it.

Tell us first, so we can put it right. If you are not satisfied with how we have handled your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office, the UK regulator for data protection, at ico.org.uk. You can complain to them without telling us first.

The short version

• We ask only for what we need to read your message and, if you want, reply to you.
• Only the IT’S POSSIBLE NOW team can see what you send.
• We never publish your name. We publish a summary of what you said only if you say we can.
• If something you tell us makes us worried about someone’s safety, we may share it with people whose job is to help.
• You can ask to see, correct or delete what we hold, and you can complain.

Who we are

IT’S POSSIBLE NOW is run by IT’S POSSIBLE NOW COMMUNITY INTEREST COMPANY, company number 16430786. In this notice, “we” means that company. You can contact us at ashraf@ipncic.com or through the contact form on this website.

What this part of the notice covers

Have your say, youth surveys, registering interest in the youth panel, and registering interest in NEET  to OPPORTUNITY. The rest of this privacy notice covers everything else on the site.

What we ask for, and why

• Have your say

  We ask for

  Your age group, what your message is about, your message. If you want a reply: a name and an email address or mobile number. Your area, if you choose to tell us.

  Why

  To read and act on your idea; to reply if you asked; to handle what you send in the right way for your age; to see which areas ideas come from.

• Answer a survey

  We ask for

  Your age group and your answers.

  Why

  To understand what young people think about a decision we are making.

• Register interest in the youth panel

  We ask for

  Your name, how to contact you, your age group, your area, and anything you choose to add.

  Why

  To contact you about the panel once it is agreed.

• Register interest in NEET  to OPPORTUNITY

  We ask for

  Your name, how to contact you, your age group, your area, the pathways that interest you, and anything you choose to add.

  Why

  To reply and tell you what is available.

We ask for your age group, not your date of birth. We ask for your area, not your address.

What we never ask for

Your date of birth, your address, a diagnosis or any medical evidence, benefits details, your National Insurance number, identity documents, or details about your family.

If you are under 16

Youth Voice is for people aged 16 and over. If you tell us you are under 16, we do not save what you entered. A parent, carer, teacher or youth worker can contact us for you.

Health information

We do not ask for health information. If you mention it anyway, we use only what we need to reply to you in the way you asked, and we remove the rest. If it makes us worried about your safety, see When we might share it to keep someone safe.

Why we are allowed to use your information

• To read, reply and learn from what young people tell us, we rely on what the law calls “legitimate interests”. Youth Voice exists to hear from young people and act on it. We have checked that using your information this way is fair to you, and we give extra weight to your interests because you may be under 18.
• For updates, publishing a summary of what you said, and panel profiles, we rely on your consent. You choose each one separately, nothing is ticked for you, and you can change your mind at any time.
• To keep someone safe, the law allows us to share information when that is needed to protect a child or an adult at risk.

Who can see it

The IT’S POSSIBLE NOW staff whose job needs it. Restricted records, such as safeguarding concerns, can be opened only by our safeguarding lead and administrators.

Companies that run services for us can technically access it while they do: our website and database host, and the email service that sends our staff an alert when something arrives. Those alerts contain a reference number, not your details.

We do not give your information to businesses or organisations in our network, such as Nuriqa, Gazian Water, POSSIQUE or Difability, unless you ask us to. We do not sell it, and we do not use it for advertising.

When we might share it to keep someone safe

If something you tell us makes us worried about your safety, or someone else’s, we may need to share it with people whose job is to help, such as children’s services or the police. If it is safe to, we tell you first. Have your say is not an emergency service. If someone is in danger now, call 999.

What we publish

• You said, we did: summaries written by our team, never with names or details that could identify you, and only if you gave permission.
• Survey results: totals only. Any group small enough for someone to be recognised is hidden.
• Panel profiles: only for panel members who choose to have one, with their permission. They can ask us to take it down at any time.

Surveys

Surveys do not ask for your name or contact details, and we do not store your internet address with your answers. Because your answers are not linked to you, we cannot find, change or delete them after you send them.

How long we keep it

• Have your say messages: 12 months after we decide what to do. After that we keep only the summary, with no names.
• Survey answers: 12 months after the survey closes. After that we keep only the totals.
• Youth panel interest: 6 months after we decide on panel recruitment, and no longer than 12 months.
• NEET  to OPPORTUNITY interest: 12 months after we last contacted you.
• Safety concerns: as long as our safeguarding policy requires.
• Backups: anything we delete leaves our backups within 14 days.

Your rights

You can ask us to:

• show you what we hold about you and give you a copy
• correct anything that is wrong
• delete what we hold
• stop using it, or use it less, while something is sorted out
• stop using it where we rely on legitimate interests
• stop sending updates or remove a summary or profile you agreed to

Asking is free. We reply within one month. If your request is complicated, or you send several, we can take up to two more months, and we tell you why before the first month ends.

How to ask, or complain

Use the contact form and choose “I have a general question”, or email ashraf@ipncic.com. Tell us your reference if you have it (it starts with IPN-).

If you are unhappy with how we have used your information, tell us. We confirm we have your complaint within 30 days, look into it, and tell you what we found and what we did. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office, the UK regulator for data protection, at ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint. You do not have to tell us first.

Changes to this notice

When we change how we use information, we update this notice and the date at the top.
