The following outlines how The Gilbert & George Centre uses and protects personal data you provide us.

We will only use your personal data when we believe it is lawful to do so and will only collect data which is necessary.

We will never sell your data but may share data with authorised third parties which is necessary to provide you with services requested.

Reasons why we gather this data and examples of the types of data we may collect from you:

• If subscribing to our mailing list: contact data including your name, surname, and email address
• When purchasing something from us: data in relation to your purchase such as address details for shipping
• Details of your declaration if Gift Aid is applicable to any donation that you make
• As you interact with our website data may be automatically collected such as session statistics, approximate geolocation, and browser and device information
• Your image when you visit us, as we operate CCTV for your security and that of our staff and other visitors

If you opt in to receive mail list communications from us you consent to the processing of your data to send you such communications, which may include updates, blog posts, surveys, and information about new events.

You can choose to no longer receive mail list communications by contacting us at [email protected] or clicking unsubscribe from a mail list email.

We shall therefore retain your personal data in our records for marketing purposes until you notify us that you no longer wish to receive marketing emails from us.

If you are 16 or younger, please ask your parent or guardian’s permission before providing us with any personal data.

Keeping your data safe

We are committed to ensuring your personal data is held safe and have procedures in place to safeguard and secure the data we collect.

Although procedures are in place, we cannot guarantee the complete security of personal data held in our systems, nor that data you supply through the internet or any computer network is entirely safe, for example, from unauthorised intrusion, access or manipulation during transmission.

Your rights

You have the right to obtain from us a copy of the personal data that we hold for you, and to require us to correct errors in the personal data if it is inaccurate or incomplete. You also have the right at any time to require that we delete your personal data. To exercise these rights, or any other rights you may have under applicable laws, please contact us at datarequests@gilbertandgeorgecentre

Please note, we reserve the right to charge an administrative fee if your request is manifestly unfounded or excessive.

If you have any complaints in relation to this policy or otherwise in relation to our processing of your personal data, you should contact the UK supervisory authority: the Information Commissioner, see www.ico.org.uk

Our website may contain links to other sites of interest. Once you have used these links to leave our site, you should note that we do not have any control over that other site. Therefore, we cannot be responsible for the protection and privacy of any information which you provide whilst visiting such sites and such sites are not governed by this policy.
