This privacy statement explains how we utilise user’s personal information given to us when visiting our website. However, it does not cover websites that can be linked to and from our site, so you should always be aware when you are moving to another site to read their own privacy statement.
This policy covers:
From time to time, you may be asked to submit personal information about yourself (e.g. name and email address) in order to receive or use services on our website. Such services include registration, newsletters, information about events, PDF downloads and email updates. We also collect information when you voluntarily complete surveys, sign up for our newsletter and via ‘contact us forms’.
We collect information about you to help us deal with your requests and, if you agree, to email you with news, events and other updates we believe would be of interest to you based on the information you have provided.
By giving us your details you enable East Midlands ISDN and our associated projects and programmes to provide you with the services you select. When you subscribe to a newsletter or complete a form you will have the chance to accept / “opt in” to what news you are interested in receiving. You can “opt out” or unsubscribe at any time by contacting us or updating your profile via newsletter or events invites.
In line with our public and patient leadership agenda and for our events, we may ask for sensitive personal data such as race, ethnicity or gender. This is to ensure that our services are inclusive and fairly represented.
We will only collect information that is necessary and with your permission.
Any information you provide to East Midlands ISDN will only be used by us and our associated projects and programmes. Your details will not be disclosed unless we are obliged or permitted to by law to do so.
If you post or send offensive, inappropriate or objectionable content anywhere on this website or otherwise engage in any disruptive behaviour on this website, we may use whatever information is available to us, about you, to stop such behaviour. We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as you use the service you have requested, and remove it in the event that the purpose has been met or when you no longer wish to continue your subscription.
You can request a copy of the details we hold about you at any time. Please email us to obtain these or to update us on any changes you’d like to make.
Under the Data Protection Act, we have a legal duty to protect any information we collect from you. We use leading technologies and encryption software to safeguard your data and keep strict security standards to prevent any unauthorised access to it.
We do not pass on your details to any third party or other government departments.
If our privacy policy changes in any way, we will place an updated version on this page. Regularly reviewing the page ensures you are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it and under what circumstances if any, we will share it with other parties.
This site has security measures in place to protect the loss and alteration of information under our control.
We will not use cookies to collect personally identifiable information about you.
If you have any questions about this policy please contact us at the address given on our contact page.
We keep our privacy policy under regular review and we will place any updates on this page.
This privacy policy was last updated January 2023.
This encompasses our obligation to provide fair processing information, which we do through this privacy notice.
This is your right to obtain confirmation that we process your data and access to it.
This is your right to have your personal data rectified if it is inaccurate or incomplete. If you believe that the information recorded about you is incorrect, you will need to tell us so that we are able to contact the person who entered the information. We will correct factual mistakes and provide you with a copy of the corrected information. Wherever possible, we will also tell you the names of any third parties that we have disclosed this data to.
This is also known as your ‘right to be forgotten’, where there is no compelling reason to continue processing your data in relation to the purpose for which it was originally collected or processed.
