Creativity In The Classroom (“Creativity In The Classroom”) respects your right to privacy.
​
This Privacy Statement explains how we manage your personal data within our organisation, informs you of your rights and describes how you may contact us in relation to data protection matters.
​
What is personal data?
Personal data means any information which we have or obtain, or which you provide to us, such as your name, home address, email address, telephone numbers, employer name, employer address, title or position, work experience, user IP address, debit/credit card details, CVs, exam and qualification records, educational details, membership details, committee and working group membership, from which you can be directly or indirectly personally identified.
​
Does the data leave the European Economic Area (the “EEA”)?
Your personal data may be transferred outside the European Economic Area (the “EEA”) by one or more trusted service providers who use resources or data-processing facilities outside the EEA.
​
Many of the transfers will be to countries or organisations that sign up to protection frameworks which the European Commission has approved and will have data protection measures in place which are the same as or broadly equivalent to those in the EEA.
​
For other transfers, they will be performed through the implementation of appropriate or suitable safeguards in accordance with applicable data protection laws. For the avoidance of doubt, safeguards may include EU Commission approved standard contractual clauses.
​
Further information in relation to international data transfers can be obtained by contacting us at the address specified above.
​
How long do we keep the data?
We are obliged to retain certain information for legal and regulatory purposes and may hold other personal data for legitimate business purposes.
​
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and the sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.
​
However, personal data will be retained for no longer than is necessary for the purpose for which it was obtained by us, or as required or permitted for legal and regulatory purposes, and for legitimate business purposes. In general, we hold this information for a period of seven years after you cease to interact with us, unless we are obliged to hold it for a longer period under law or applicable regulations.
​
When it is no longer necessary for us to hold your personal data, we will securely destroy it in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
​
Before we provide this detail, we wish to inform you of your rights under data protection law.
