charity and a limited company. We set out below to have a list of the different types of data that we might use.

Privacy Notice

1. Your personal data – what is it?
“Personal data” is any information about a living individual which allows them to be
identified from that data (for example a name, photographs, videos, email address, or address). Identification can be by the information alone or in conjunction with any other information. The processing of personal data is governed by the Data Protection Act 2018, the ‘UK GDPR’ which is the retained EU law version of the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679, and other legislation relating to personal data and rights such as the Human Rights Act 1998.

3. What is the lawful basis for processing your personal data?
The GDPR requires specification in the Privacy Notice of the lawful basis for processing personal data. Below are the lawful bases which are relevant for our processing activities.

  • legitimate interests, or the legitimate interests of a third party (such as another organisation in the Church of England)
  • compliance with a legal obligation
  • performance of a contract, or to take steps to enter into a contract

For example, it is current best practice to keep financial records for a minimum period of 6 years to support audits from external bodies.
