  1. Privacy Policy

    This website is operated by Brampton & District 50+ Forum which is responsible for the processing of your personal data and is the data controller for all such information.
    We regard your privacy as very important.
    Any personal information you provide to us through this website will be dealt with in accordance with this Privacy Policy and the Terms of Use.
    This Privacy Policy describes the information we may collect from you and the purpose for our collection of it.

  2. General Data Protection Regulations

    As data controller and when handling any personal information we take all necessary steps to comply with the Data Protection Act 1998 (as modified by the General Data Protection Regulations 2016) and relevant subordinate legislation. When you supply any personal information to us we will meet our legal obligations to you in the way that we deal with that information. In accordance with the Data Protection Principles we are required to collect personal information fairly and to let you know how we will use it (see section 2 below) and whether we will pass the information onto anyone else (see section 3 below). We will comply with the Principles by ensuring that:
    • all personal information supplied to us is held securely
    • information will be held only as long as necessary for our services
    • we use up to date industry procedures to keep personal data as safe and secure as possible against loss, unauthorised disclosure or access (see section 5 below).

  3. What personal information do we collect and why do we collect it?

    This website currently does not collect web analytic data nor does it use cookies.
    We may collect the following types of information:-
     (a)  contact information and other personal information.
    If we do want to collect personally identifiable information through our website, we will be up front about this. We will make it clear when we collect personal information and will explain what we intend to do with it. The information in (a) is Personal Data, which falls within the provisions of the Data Protection legislation. We may come to hold your Personal Data (such as name, e-mail address and other contact information) when you contact us to make comments, submit a problem or request information from us, or register to receive e-news posts from us and provide your name or return contact information.

  4. To whom will we supply your personal data?

    We do not disclose personally identifying information except in very specific instances.
    It is not our normal policy to release (sell, trade, provide or rent) your information to other parties. If a good reason for changing that policy were to arise it would remain the case we would not release any of your personal data without having first obtained your consent at the point of collection of your personal data. If you do give us that permission we will only share information with organisations we have carefully selected and believe to be reputable. (see also paragraphs 3.1 and 3.2).
    Where an individual provides personal information (such as name, e-mail, address and other contact information) to us via our website for whatever purpose (e.g. registration, survey, feedback etc.) that personal information will only be used for the purpose of communicating with you in relation to the matter raised or for any other purpose for which you have given your consent.
    Brampton & District 50+ Forum will regard it as normal processing to share communications internally between Forum committee members to ensure that any issue raised is properly dealt with.
    Specific personal information may be released where we are required to do so e.g., court order.
    1. Will you use my personal information for direct marketing? Can I prevent this?
      Personal data obtained from optional surveys or contests may be used by us for the purpose of making you aware of other services or promotions from the Forum, which we think you may be interested in. It is not our normal policy to release such information to other parties for direct marketing. If a good reason for changing that policy were to arise it would only be in a case where the third party had been carefully selected/vetted, and we would not release any of your personal data without having first obtained your consent at the point of collection of your personal data. Such consent may also be withdrawn at any time by sending an e-mail to ann.oswin@bramptoncumbria.uk and typing Remove in the subject line. In addition, if we send you a direct marketing communication it will include an option to remove yourself from the mailing list.
    2. Is my personal information sent abroad?
      Countries in the European Economic Area (EEA, which includes the UK at time of writing) are required to have a similar standard of protection of personal data. Lower standards often apply outside that area. The Forum does not propose releasing such material outside the EEA. In addition, before releasing any data to a third party under the constraints above, guarantees will be elicited that processing of this personal information will continue to restricted to the EEA, and we will take all reasonable steps to ensure that data is held with adequate security.

  5. Links to other websites

    This Privacy Policy only extends to the Brampton & District 50+ Forum website and does not, therefore, extend to your use of, provision of data to and collection of data on any other website to which you may link by using the hypertext links within our website.

  6. Security

    We take care to ensure the security of the Brampton & District 50+ Forum website and your personal information. We have put in place appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure the safety and security of the information we collect on line. Any third party processing such information on the Forum's behalf is contractually obliged to put in place similar measures. However, you should consider any communication that you transmit to us (such as data, questions, answers, comments or suggestions) as non-confidential. Brampton & District 50+ Forum will not be liable if information that belongs to you is intercepted and used by an unintended recipient.

  7. Turning cookies off

    Turning off cookies is not recommended as it will likely limit the functionality of many websites. Most modern websites use cookies to support a number of important features.

  8. Concerns about Spyware

    Concerns about cookies are often related to "spyware".

Use antivirus and antispyware programs: many of them are freeware and very effective.
