INSIGHT UK takes the issue of privacy very seriously and is committed to protecting and respecting all personal data held on individuals. This policy explains how we collect and use the personal information provided.
Who are we?
INSIGHT UK is the “data controller” for the purposes of the Data Protection Act 1998 and (from 25 May 2018) the EU General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (“Data Protection Law”). This means that we are responsible for, and control the processing of, your personal information.
What personal data do we collect about you?
We will collect personal information like (non-exhaustive list) your name, title, email address, postal address, contact details etc.
Why do we use your personal data?
· To keep you informed or get in touch with you regarding any of our activities or events
· To undertake public relations activities
· To process your donations
· For regulatory data processing and administrative tasks
· To administer the volunteering arrangement where you volunteer with us
What is the legal basis for processing your personal data?
The legal basis for processing your personal information is ‘legitimate interests”. Under “legitimate interests” we can process your personal information to carry out our activities and conduct events.
We will not sell or rent your information (including web browsing activity) to third party organisations, and we will not share your personal information for others to use for the purposes of marketing.
In line with key objectives, events and activities of INSIGHT UK, we may disclose your personal data to certain third-party organisations who are processing data solely in accordance with our instructions (called ‘data processors’). This includes companies and/or organisations that work with us or on our behalf to deliver our objectives, events, activities and certifications (for example providers of mail management, payment providers, event organisers) as well as professionals we use such as insurers, auditors or accountants. We only use those data processors who can guarantee to us that adequate safeguards are put in place by them to protect the personal data they process on our behalf.
We may disclose your information if required to do so by law (for example, to comply with applicable laws, regulations and codes of practice or in response to a valid request from a competent authority); or, to enforce our conditions of sale and other agreements.
How long do we keep your personal data?
We only keep it as long as is reasonable and necessary for the relevant activities and events. We are legally required to hold some personal data to fulfil statutory obligations.
