Personal Data: Definitions and Responsibility
Personal data is information about a person which is identifiable as being about them. It can be stored electronically or on paper, and includes images and audio recordings as well as written information.
Data protection is about how we, as a small group, ensure we protect the rights and privacy of individuals, and comply with the law, when collecting, storing, using, amending, sharing, destroying or deleting personal data.
Overall and final responsibility for data protection lies with the steering committee. Other volunteers and administrators are responsible for observing this policy, and related procedures, in all areas of their work for the group.
What personal data we collect and why we collect it
We will collect, store, use, amend, share, destroy or delete personal data only in ways which protect people’s privacy and comply with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other relevant legislation.
We will only collect, store and use the minimum amount of data that we need for:
– purposes for which the individual has given explicit consent, or
– purposes that are in our group’s legitimate interests, or
– to comply with legal obligations, or
– to perform public tasks.
We will provide individuals with details of the data we have about them when requested by the relevant individual. We will delete data if requested by the relevant individual, unless we need to keep it for legal reasons. We will endeavour to keep personal data up-to-date and accurate.
