Interbright Limited: Privacy Notice

Company Number: 10468040

Policy Version: 2.0 (Updated May 2026)

1. Introduction

Interbright Limited ("we", "us", "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This notice explains how we handle your personal data when you interact with our advertisements on social media platforms, including TikTok, in compliance with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

2. The Personal Data We Collect

We only collect the information necessary to assess your initial suitability for fostering and to connect you with a relevant service provider. This includes:

  • Contact Information: Name and email address.

  • Location Information: Postcode (to match you with a local agency).

  • Eligibility Information: Confirmation of whether you have a permanently spare bedroom.

 

3. How We Get Personal Data and Why We Have It

We receive your data directly from you when you complete a Lead Generation Form on TikTok or our website. We process this data to:

  • Identify the most appropriate regulated fostering service in your local area.

  • Facilitate an introduction between you and that service.

 

4. Lawful Bases for Processing

Under the UK GDPR, we rely on the following legal bases:

  • Consent: By submitting a lead form, you give us clear consent to process your data and share it with a matched fostering agency. You can withdraw this consent at any time by contacting us.

  • Legitimate Interests: It is in our legitimate interest to process your enquiry to help address the national shortage of foster carers.

 

5. Sharing Your Information (Third-Party Disclosure)

To fulfill your request to learn more about fostering, we share the data you provide with:

  • One Matched Regulated Fostering Service: We will transfer your details (Name, Email, Postcode, and Bedroom status) to one fostering agency only that operates in your geographical area.

  • Platform Tools: We use TikTok’s Lead Generation tools to collect this data; TikTok also processes this data in accordance with their own privacy policy.

 

6. How We Store Your Personal Data

Your information is stored on encrypted internal systems. Once your lead is successfully transferred to a matched fostering service, we retain your data only as long as necessary to ensure the referral was successful or to meet legal/audit requirements (typically 12–24 months unless a longer period is required by the Fostering Services Regulations 2011).

 

7. Your Data Protection Rights

You have the right to:

  • Access, Rectify, or Erase your data.

  • Object to or Restrict our processing.

  • Withdraw Consent at any time.

 

8. How to Complain
