(a) Explicit consent
These articles and lawful bases apply due to our processing of ‘special category data’. The special category data that is relevant in this case is the inference of contributors’ disability status.

We keep your email address for a month after the survey closes, so that we have time to contact the winner. We then delete your data. You can contact us at any point and ask us be removed from the draw and we will delete your data.
