SCOPE

Our Privacy Statement governs any kind of processing where we are acting as a Data Controller or co-controller (including collection, use, transfer, storage, and deletion) of personally identifiable information (any information that may be used to identify a physical person, and any other information associated therewith) about natural persons. This Privacy Statement applies to our processing of data collected through any means, actively as well as passively, from persons located anywhere in the world.

We are guided by the following principles when processing data:

  1. We will only collect data for specific and specified purposes; we will make it clear at the point when we request your information, what we are collecting it for and how we are going to use it;

  2. We will not collect data beyond what is necessary to accomplish those purposes; we will minimise the amount of information we collect from you to what we need to deliver the services required;

  3. We will collect and use your personal information only if we have sensible business reasons for doing so, such as contacting you with a weekly newsletter or to provide you with an update in respect to our programmes and services;

  4. We will not use your data for purposes other than those for which it was collected, accepted as stated within our Privacy Policy, or without your prior consent;

  5. We will seek to verify and/or update your data periodically and we will accept requests from you for amendment of the data held;

  6. We will apply high technical standards to make our processing of data secure;

  7. Except otherwise stated, we will not store data in identifiable form longer than is necessary to accomplish its purpose or as required by law.
