Privacy Notice

Personal information is any information that can be used to identify you.

This personal information may include your name, email address and the date you subscribed to this website for the purposes of being kept up to date with our activities.

To make sure we always have the most up-to-date information about how to contact you, we may also, from time to time, update your records to reflect any changes to your personal information.

This information may come directly from you, or it may come from a third party that we consider is legitimate and trustworthy and in circumstances where it is appropriate and where you will have had a clear expectation that your details would be passed on for this purpose.

We use your personal information to provide you with information you have requested or are entitled to or to keep you informed about things that we feel might be of interest to you. Some information is kept in order to comply with financial regulations.
If you do not want us to keep you informed, please let us know on info@anstrutherimprovements.org

Your personal information will not be retained for longer than necessary in relation to the purposes for which it was originally collected, or for which it was further processed, subject to certain legal obligations.

We will retain personal data in accordance with our data retention policy below.

We review our data retention periods for personal information on a regular basis.

If you have subscribed via this website to receive updates from us, you can unsubscribe at any time using the link in the mail. You can also unsubscribe from members’ emails at any time using the link.

We are legally required to hold some personal information to fulfil statutory obligations, for example for some financial transactions.

The law allows you to withdraw your consent to any particular usage of your data at any time without needing to specify a reason. You can withdraw your consent by emailing info@anstrutherimprovements.org.

We prefer to keep in touch by email as it reduces our costs and allows us to keep in regular contact with you about events and activities that we think might interest you.

If you ask us not to contact you again, we will of course not do so. You can contact us to change your contact preferences by emailing info@anstrutherimprovements.org.

We will not rent or sell your personal information to other organisations for use by them in any way, including in their own direct marketing activities.
We will not pass on your information to external service providers.

We want to ensure that we provide you with information that is relevant to you. If you do not find the information relevant and would like to stop hearing from us, please get in touch by emailing info@anstrutherimprovements.org.

We do not use third parties to update any of our records.

We will only disclose your personal information to third parties if we are legally obliged to or to protect the rights, property or safety of the AIA, FCCT and our trustees and volunteers.

The AIA and FCCT do not accept payments by direct debit or credit card. If you are contacted by anyone purporting to be from the AIA or FCCT regarding such payments, please do not provide any information. Please contact us on info@anstrutherimprovements.org and get in touch with the police.

To protect yourself if you are sending us sensitive personal information, please ensure that you use devices running supported operating systems that are regularly patched, and incorporate some form of malware protection. Only connect your devices to networks that you trust.

If our website (www.dreelburn.earth) include links to other websites not owned or managed by the AIA or FCCT, please be aware that we cannot be held responsible for the privacy of data collected by sites not managed by us. Nor can we accept responsibility or liability for those policies. For this reason we recommend that you consult the privacy policy on any external website you link to before you submit any data to those websites.

If you post or send any content that we believe to be inappropriate or content in breach of any laws, such as defamatory content, we may use your personal information to inform relevant third parties such as your internet provider or law enforcement agencies.

We have the right to disclose your identity to any third party claiming to own any content that you posted.

The personal information collected from you may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”).

It may also be processed by individuals operating outside the EEA. By submitting your personal data, you agree to this transfer, storing and processing of data outside the EEA.

We have taken all steps reasonably necessary to make sure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy. We have done our best to protect your personal data, and ensured that it will be held in compliance with European data protection regulations.

Unfortunately the transmission of information via the internet is never 100% secure and we cannot guarantee the security of data transmitted to our website. This means any such transmission is at your own risk.

In cases when we use external websites provided by other organisations such as Instagram, YouTube or Facebook, then we would ask you to consult their privacy policies.
