Children/young people

House of Fairy Tales is committed to the welfare needs of all children, young people and vulnerable adults who work with House of Fairy Tales, whether they are participating in House of Fairy Tales workshops or are performers or makers on House of Fairy Tales projects. We aim to create intimate, respectful and trusting relationships between everyone involved. House of Fairy Tales is committed to a creative process which:

Places the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults first;
Respects the rights, wishes and feelings of young people, vulnerable adults and all with whom we are working
Promotes the welfare of all people we work with and their protection within a relationship of trust;
Ensures best health and safety practice.

In our participation projects, we may collect data about the people taking part, including children & young people. We will seek consent from a parent or guardian before collecting data about children.

In order to deliver projects and keep participants safe, we may need information like medical details, school information, access requirements and notes and feedback on participants’ work with House of Fairy Tales’s. This may be passed to emergency services if necessary.

For people under 16 years old, House of Fairy Tales will use a nominated adult as a first point of communication, switching to the child on consent from that nominated adult or where needed to fulfil a contract.

How we keep your data safe, and who sees it

To protect your privacy, we make sure your data is kept securely and access is restricted to appropriately trained staff who need to use it for the processes outlined in this policy. We will keep and process your data only for long enough to fulfil the purpose we collected it for. After that point, we will dispose of in a secure manner.

We will never sell your data, but it may be processed by limited third parties in the course of achieving the purposes listed above. Third parties that may process your data for us include payment platforms, venues who need the names of bookers, ticket sites, and companies who store our data.

Some of our suppliers run their operations outside the European Economic Area (EEA). This means they may not be subject to same data protection laws as companies based in the UK, but we will take steps to make sure they provide a level of protection which meets the requirements of UK data protection law.

We may share information about you with law enforcement agencies and other organisations or individuals if we are required to by law.
