Your charity uses AI. UK GDPR and the ICO hold you to the same standard as any organisation.

Beneficiary data is often sensitive

Charities working in mental health, disability, addiction, or domestic abuse typically process special category data under UK GDPR Article 9. AI tools used in case management, referral triage, or beneficiary assessment require a mandatory Data Protection Impact Assessment before deployment.

Volunteers and trustees are not IT experts

Most charities have no dedicated data protection officer or IT governance team. When the ICO investigates a complaint, the expectation is still a documented record of how AI tools were assessed, approved, and monitored.

AI fundraising tools carry compliance risk

AI tools that personalise donor appeals, score donor propensity, or automate communications must meet Fundraising Regulator standards for transparency and fairness. Most charities using these tools have no documented assessment of how they work or what data they use.

Create a simple register of every AI tool your charity uses — from case management platforms to email marketing tools. Track what data each one processes, who approved it, and its current risk status.

Complete a guided risk assessment for each AI system in under 30 minutes. Get a weighted risk score and ICO-aligned mitigation checklist without needing a technical background.

Generate ICO-aligned AI Impact Assessments that auto-populate from your risk assessment answers. Export as PDF for trustee sign-off, funder due diligence, or ICO accountability evidence.

Track your charity's governance position across UK GDPR, ICO AI guidance, and Equality Act frameworks. See exactly what documentation is complete and what still needs attention.
