GDPR Data Protection Legislation - your legal rights and protection


Important, please read and confirm notice

GDPR Data Protection Legislation

Dear Member,
A new data privacy law is being introduced in the UK in May. As a result, we are publishing a new Privacy Notice to make it easier for you to find out how Ichinen Bridport uses and protects your personal data.

The Privacy Notice provides additional information about what we do and sets out your rights in line with the General Data Protection Regulation including information such as:
your increased rights in relation to the information we hold about you
the legal basis on which we collect data about you, how we collect it and use it
how long we retain your data

The Privacy Notice will apply to any services we provide to you and is effective from 25 May 2018. It ensures we continue to comply with privacy law and regulation. There are no changes to your terms and conditions. If we make changes to these, we will let you know.

Confidentiality and GDPR Data Protection

When you share your personal information with us, you have a right to expect that information to be treated with total confidentiality. Therefore, it is our responsibility to manage your personal data that you provide to us with care and in accordance with all data protection legislation and industry best practice.

Whether you have supplied your personal details online, by phone, by email or in a letter, we will never use them without a lawful reason to do so. We will use your personal data for the purposes for which they were initially requested and as fully explained in this Privacy Policy.

All information about you of a sensitive or personal nature will be treated as private and
confidential. We will however use and disclose the information we have about you in the course of arranging, placing and administering your insurance. This may involve passing information about you to insurers, other intermediaries, risk management assessors, uninsured loss recovery agencies and other third parties involved (directly or indirectly) in your insurance. We may with your permission also pass information about you to other Ichinen Bridport Members which are in, or are associated with, our school.

If you do not wish to receive information from them, or for us to disclose information
about you to other parties, please contact us immediately. In the interests of security and to
improve our service, telephone calls may be monitored and/or recorded.
