THE ELY MEMORIAL FUND DATA RETENTION POLICY

The Data Protection Act 2018 governs the handling of personal information that identifies living individuals directly or indirectly and covers both manual and computerised information. It provides a mechanism by which individuals about whom data is held (the “data subjects”) can have a certain amount of control over the way in which it is handled. 

The ELY Memorial Fund is the Data Controller under data protection law.  The legal basis for processing this data is your consent to allow the Charity to contact you for our charitable purposes. The Charity collects, processes and stores different data where it is necessary to identify the appropriate retention period to such records in all formats paper and electronic.  Should records or documents require a different retention period this will need to be agreed by the Directors of Charity.  We will keep your data for as long as reasonably necessary, subject to HMRC and Claims. Your information will not be shared unless explicit consent is agreed to do so by writing to you seeking such consent.

You can withdraw your consent at any time by notifying us. Our contact details to do so, or for any other queries, are The ELY Memorial Fund, 39 Grandison Rise, Tupsley, Hereford HR1 1PP.  Telephone number 01432 359152 or our email is hugs4u@ely-memorial-fund.org.uk
