From time to time, you will have the opportunity to submit personal information about yourself (e.g. name and email address etc) in order to receive or use services on our website.
Such services include the ability to apply for Council services, e-mail alert services and online information listings such as 'Find an Old School Friend'.
By entering your details in the fields requested, you enable us to provide you with the services you select. Whenever you provide such personal information, we will treat that information in accordance with this policy.
Our services are designed to give you the information that you want to receive. We will act in accordance with current legislation and aim to meet current Internet best practice.
When you supply any personal information to us (e.g. when applying for something, or adding your details to an online information service) we have legal obligations towards you in the way we deal with that data.
We must collect the information fairly (see the notices on particular webpages that let you know why you are providing the information); we must let you know how we will use it; and we must tell you in advance if it becomes necessary to pass the information on to anyone else.
We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as it is needed for the service you have requested, and remove it in the event that the purpose has been met, or, in the case of an online information service, such as 'Find an Old School Friend', you no longer wish to continue your listing.
We will ensure that all personal information supplied is held securely, in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998.
As the Council's online services expand, there will be more opportunities to enhance the services provided to you. From time to time we may send you details of other Council services that may be of interest to you and offer you the opportunity to access them.
We may also offer you the opportunity to participate in surveys, carried out by the Council or its agents, that help our research into the types of service we offer. We will keep a record of information provided by you.
Please note that any information you provide to the Council through the website will only be used within the Council. It will never be supplied to third parties without first obtaining your consent unless we are obliged by law to disclose information to other organisations or agencies.
If you are under 18, please get your parent/guardian's permission beforehand whenever you provide personal information to the Council's website.
Users without this consent are not allowed to provide us with personal information.
