Safeguarding and Child Protection

Keeping children safe is our highest priority.

While MASKK treats personal information as confidential, there may be circumstances where we need to share information without consent if we believe a child or young person may be at risk of harm. This may include sharing information with social care, the police, health professionals or other safeguarding agencies. This reflects MASKK’s existing confidentiality and GDPR policy position.

Where possible, we will always be open about information sharing unless doing so could place a child or another person at risk.

We may take photographs or videos during activities for:

  • Celebrating achievements
  • Publicity and marketing
  • Social media
  • Website content
  • Funding reports
  • Internal displays

We will ask for consent before using photographs or videos for promotional purposes.

You may change your consent preferences at any time by contacting us.


How Long We Keep Information

We only keep information for as long as necessary.

Retention periods vary depending on the type of information held and any legal or safeguarding requirements.

When records are no longer needed, they are securely deleted, destroyed or anonymised.

A full retention schedule is available upon request.
