1. Your personal data – what is it? 2. Who are we? 3. How do we process your personal data? We use your personal data for the following purposes: -
4. What is the legal basis for processing your personal data? Similarly, as a religious organisation, we may, with appropriate safeguards, process information about your religious beliefs in the course of our legitimate activities provided that: (i) the processing relates solely to the members or to former members of the church or to persons who have regular contact with it in connection with its purposes and (ii) your personal data is not disclosed to third parties without your consent. Some of our processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation. For example, we are required by the Church Representation Rules to administer and publish the Electoral Roll and under Canon Law to announce forthcoming weddings by means of the publication of banns. We may also process data if it is necessary for the performance of a contract with you, or to take steps to enter into a contract. For example, processing your personal data in connection with the hire of church facilities. Occasionally, we may process personal data in order to protect vital interests (for example in a medical emergency) or where it is the public interest (for example, processing CCTV information to prevent, or enable the prosecution of, crime). Where your information is used other than in accordance with one of the above legal bases, we will first obtain your consent to that use. 5. Sharing your personal data 6. How long do we keep your personal data? see https://www.churchofengland.org/about-us/structure/churchcommissioners/administration/librariesandarchives/recordsmanagementguides.aspx. Specifically, we retain electoral roll data while it is still current; gift aid declarations and associated paperwork for up to 7 years after the tax year to which they relate; and parish registers (baptisms, marriages, funerals) permanently. 7. Your rights and your personal data
When exercising any of the above rights, in order to process your request, we may need to verify your identity for your security. In such cases, we will need you to respond with proof of your identity before you can exercise these rights. 8. Further processing 9.
