This website does not require you to enter any personal information, except if you fill in the booking request, donation, membership, or newsletter forms, or if you are an authorised administrator when logging in.
We collect essential contact information from those who have expressed an interest in the development of Pardshaw Quaker Centre for the legitimate interests of our organisation. We use this information to send e-newsletters to people who have opted in to receive them, and who have told us that they are interested in specific areas of our project. We check membership form details against centre booking details, to verify that the centre is being booked by a member. We use donation form details to support gift aid claims for donations.
When booking we ask for information essential for us to process your enquiry. We will only contact you about the enquiry using the details you give, unless you opt in to receive updates from Pardshaw Quaker Centre. We will delete your personal and organisational data 3 months after you have made your enquiry. We reserve the right to retain anonymised data about bookings, the number of people anticipated, and if the hirer was a group, individual or charity. We may analyse this data to help with the management of Pardshaw Quaker Centre. Where appropriate, we will ask for consent for collection and management of personal data if the need arises to share data externally.
We will never sell any personal data.
We will take appropriate measures to ensure data we collect is kept securely. This includes:
• Keeping certain data in locked storage areas
• Securely shredding personal data
• Ensuring only the relevant people have access to personal data
• Taking measures to ensure security of data on digital systems such as ensuring our devices are password protected and have up to date anti-virus software
If you are unhappy with how your personal data has been managed, please contact the convener as shown above.
If you are still unhappy after discussion with the convener and trustees, you can contact the Information Commissioners Office here: https://ico.org.uk/
