This Privacy Policy explains, in general terms, how we may collect, use, store, and disclose personal information when you visit our website, contact us, make an enquiry, volunteer, partner with us, or otherwise engage with our organisation.

    Who we are

    Generation Now and Beyond is an independent organisation focused on engaging, equipping, and empowering young people and young adults. Our work includes community support, youth-focused initiatives, practical assistance, and partnership with like-minded people and organisations.

    What information we may collect

    • Your name
    • Your email address
    • Your phone number
    • Your organisation name, if relevant
    • Information you provide in an enquiry, contact form, volunteer application, donation form, or other website form
    • Any other information you choose to send to us

    If our website later includes donations, newsletter sign-ups, member areas, or other online forms, additional personal information may be collected through those features.

    • Subscribe to updates, if that feature is added
    • Interact with our website or online services

    We may also collect limited technical information automatically through normal website use, such as browser type, device information, and general website usage data, where this is provided through standard website analytics, hosting, or security tools. This information is generally used to help operate and improve the website.

    Why we collect information

    We may use personal information to:

    • Respond to enquiries and requests
    • Communicate with you about our work, services, events, or opportunities
    • Process donations or expressions of interest, where relevant
    • Support volunteer, partner, or community engagement activities
    • Improve our website, communication, and service delivery
    • Meet legal, regulatory, or administrative obligations where required

    Disclosure of information

    We do not sell personal information. We may share personal information with trusted service providers or platforms that help us operate our website, communications, forms, donations, or administration, but only where reasonably necessary.

    We may also disclose information where required by law, regulation, legal process, or where necessary to protect the rights, safety, or integrity of our organisation, website users, or others.

    Data storage and security

    We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification, or disclosure. However, no website or online transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

    Access and correction

    If you would like to request access to the personal information we hold about you, or ask us to correct inaccurate information, please contact us using the details below.

    Children and young people

    Because Generation Now and Beyond is youth-focused, we recognise the importance of handling personal information relating to young people with care. Where relevant, we encourage parents, guardians, carers, and responsible adults to be involved in online interactions or submissions concerning minors.

    Third-party links

    Our website may contain links to third-party websites or services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or policies of those third-party sites.
