When you contact us we will add your contact details to our contact management database and we will use those details to stay in touch with you throughout our conversations. If we end up working together your data will be transferred to our bookkeeping software as well. Your contact details may be transferred to our contact lists held in Google. Your data may be held in documents in various ways, such as proposals to explain our work, contracts for our work together and in the course of our work together.

All of our systems are cloud-based and can be accessed globally via secure log-in systems. Access is limited to staff and associates of Money Tree Fundraising only, with limited access to client file areas for our clients.
