How we store your information

We may store or transfer some or all of your personal data in countries that are not part of the European Economic Area (the “EEA” consists of all EU member states, plus Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein). These are known as “third countries” and may not have data protection laws that are as strong as those in the UK and/or the EEA. This means that we will take additional steps in order to ensure that your personal data is treated just as safely and securely as it would be within the UK and under the GDPR as follows.

We use specific contracts with external third parties that are approved by the European Commission for the transfer of personal data to third countries. These contracts ensure the same levels of personal data protection that would apply under the GDPR. More information is available from the European Commission.

Where we transfer your data to a third party based in the US, this may be protected if they are part of the EU-US Privacy Shield. This requires that third party to provide data protection to standards similar levels of data protection to those in Europe. More information is available from the European Commission.

Please contact us using the details at the start of this notice for further information about the particular data protection mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data to a third country.

The security of your personal data is essential to us, and to protect your data, we take a number of important measures, including the following:

  • Use of secure connections (SSL) when transferring your data to remote (“cloud”) storage servers.

  • Password protection on personal computers on which data is stored.

  • Encryption of files containing particularly sensitive data.

Data held in paper form will be held securely, typically in a locked filing cabinet.

How long we keep your personal data?

We will not keep your personal data for any longer than is necessary in light of the reason(s) for which it was first collected. Your personal data will therefore be kept for the following periods (or, where there is no fixed period, the following factors will be used to determine how long it is kept):

  • Data held in connection with financial records (for instance relating to payments for our services) will be kept for 10 years;

  • Data held in connection with provision of services to you will be held for 2 years after ceasing activity.

  • Data held in relation to a job or volunteer application will be held for no longer than 6 months after applications close, unless you are appointed to the role in which case it will be retained until 6 years after you leave (employees) or 2 years after you leave (volunteers)

Your data protection rights

Under data protection law, you have rights including:

  • Your right of access - You have the right to ask us for copies of your personal information.

  • Your right to rectification - You have the right to ask us to rectify information you think is inaccurate. You also have the right to ask us to complete information you think is incomplete.
