Access to such information is restricted to those who require it for authorised purposes.
Your information will generally be processed within the United Kingdom. Where personal data is transferred outside the UK, we will ensure that the transfer is lawful and protected by appropriate safeguards. This may include adequacy regulations, standard contractual clauses, the International Data Transfer Agreement, the UK Addendum, or another lawful transfer mechanism.
Where we use online services, cloud providers, support providers, ticketing systems, booking systems, payment providers, email systems, analytics services, recruitment systems, social media platforms or other technology services, personal data may be accessed from or processed in countries outside the UK. We will assess such transfers and apply appropriate safeguards where required.
We will only process your personal data where we have a lawful basis to do so. Depending on the purpose of processing, we may rely on one or more of the following lawful bases:
The lawful basis relied upon will depend on the purpose and context of the processing. We may rely on different lawful bases for different purposes involving the same category of personal data.
Special category personal data means personal data revealing or concerning:
Special category personal data requires a higher level of protection. Where we process special category personal data, we must identify both an Article 6 lawful basis and an Article 9 condition under UK GDPR. Where required, we will also identify an appropriate condition under Schedule 1 of the Data Protection Act 2018 and maintain an appropriate policy document.
Our Article 9 condition for processing your special category personal data may include one or more of the following:
We will process your special category personal data for the below purposes.
Criminal offence data is treated separately from special category personal data. It includes information about criminal convictions, criminal offences, allegations, proceedings, cautions, warnings, related security measures, PVG scheme information, Disclosure Scotland information, barred list information and related safeguarding or vetting information.
We will only process criminal offence data where the law permits us to do so. This may include where processing is necessary for:
Access to criminal offence data will be restricted and such information will be retained only for as long as necessary and in accordance with applicable retention requirements.
We may send you service communications where they are necessary for a service you have requested or a relationship you have with us. These may include booking confirmations, membership updates, cancellation notices, changes to opening times, safety notices, service changes, event information, venue hire information, payment reminders, account administration messages or other operational communications. You may not be able to opt out of service communications that are necessary for us to provide a service, administer a contract, meet legal obligations or protect safety.
We will only send direct marketing communications where we have a lawful basis and comply with applicable direct marketing rules. This may include where you have consented to receive newsletters, updates, fundraising communications, campaign communications, offers, events, activities or other marketing communications. Each electronic marketing message will include an unsubscribe or preference management option where required.
You have an absolute right to object to direct marketing at any time. If you object or withdraw consent, we will stop sending direct marketing communications to you, although we may retain a suppression record to ensure we do not contact you again for that purpose.
We may disclose your personal data to any of our employees, officers, trustees, contractors, volunteers, insurers, professional advisers, agents, suppliers, subcontractors, processors, partners, government agencies, regulators, healthcare providers, safeguarding bodies and law enforcement bodies so far as reasonably necessary, and in accordance with data protection legislation.
We may also disclose your personal data:
Where we use external processors to process personal data on our behalf, we will put appropriate contractual arrangements in place requiring them to process personal data only on our instructions, keep it secure, protect confidentiality and comply with applicable data protection requirements.
OneRen may process images, video footage, voice recordings and associated audio-visual material relating to customers, members, service users, visitors, event attendees, participants, children, young people, parents, guardians, carers, contractors, suppliers, volunteers and other individuals. This may include photographs, filmed interviews, narrated content, recorded presentations, training material, meeting recordings, CCTV footage, educational videos, museum interpretation videos, cultural learning content, public information videos and other audio-visual material.
Such processing may be undertaken for purposes including:
Where OneRen intends to use identifiable images, video or audio for marketing, fundraising, advertising or promotional purposes that are not otherwise covered by a lawful basis, we will provide appropriate information and seek consent where required. Where consent is relied upon, you may withdraw consent at any time, although this will not affect processing carried out before withdrawal or material already lawfully published where removal is not reasonably practicable.
OneRen provides services which may be used by children and young people, including library, leisure, sport, arts, culture, museum, heritage, school, learning, holiday, health and wellbeing, community and events services. We may process children's personal information where it is necessary to provide those services, protect health and safety, meet safeguarding obligations, administer participation, manage consent, communicate with parents, guardians or carers, and deliver public-interest functions.
Where we need consent for a child or young person's participation or for a particular use of their information, we may need the consent of a person with parental responsibility, depending on the age of the child, the nature of the service and the purpose of processing. We will explain this where relevant.
We will handle children's personal information with particular care and will only collect and use information that is relevant and proportionate to the service or purpose involved.
Where we work with suppliers, contractors, consultants, agencies, professional advisers or other business contacts, we may process business contact details and related personal information to manage procurement, tenders, contract negotiation, contract performance, due diligence, payments, insurance, service delivery, access to premises or systems, health and safety, safeguarding, information security, audit, complaints, disputes, legal claims and compliance obligations.
Where a supplier, contractor or consultant provides personal information about its employees, workers, representatives or subcontractors to us, the supplier, contractor or consultant should ensure that those individuals are given appropriate privacy information explaining how their personal information may be shared with and processed by OneRen.
Where you apply for a job, volunteering opportunity, traineeship, placement or other role with OneRen, we may process recruitment information to manage the recruitment process, communicate with you, assess your suitability, make decisions, carry out checks, provide reasonable adjustments, meet safeguarding requirements, monitor equality and enter into an employment or other working relationship where appropriate.
Recruitment information may be processed through recruitment platforms used by OneRen. Such providers process applicant information on behalf of OneRen and in accordance with our instructions. More detailed recruitment-specific information may be provided in our Recruitment Privacy Notice and during the recruitment process.
If your application is unsuccessful, we will retain recruitment records for a period of 6 months in line with our retention schedule, unless a longer period is required for legal, safeguarding, Home Office, regulatory, audit or claims-related reasons. If your application is successful, relevant recruitment records may be transferred to your employee or worker record and retained in accordance with our Employee Privacy Notice and retention requirements.
When you give us information, we take steps to ensure that your personal information is kept secure and protected against unauthorised or unlawful processing, accidental loss, destruction or damage.
All data is held in accordance with OneRen's data protection policies, information security policies and related procedures. Depending on the nature of the data and system, security measures may include:
We will only retain your personal information for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected or processed, including for the purposes of satisfying legal, accounting, reporting, safeguarding, audit, insurance, public-interest, contractual, tax, charity, regulatory or legal claims requirements. Retention periods are set out within OneRen's Data Retention Policy and Schedule.
Where personal information is no longer required, we will securely delete, destroy, anonymise or archive it in accordance with OneRen's retention requirements. Where information is anonymised, it will no longer identify you and may be used for statistical, reporting, planning, public accountability, service-improvement or research purposes.
In many cases, you decide what information you provide to us. However, we may need certain personal information to provide services, administer bookings, memberships, tickets, library accounts, venue hire, events, donations, recruitment, supplier relationships, payments, refunds, complaints, safeguarding, health and safety, legal compliance or other OneRen functions.
Information we may require includes your name, contact details, account or membership details, booking details, payment information, eligibility information, health or accessibility information where required for safe participation, emergency contact details, recruitment information, supplier information and other information necessary for the relevant purpose.
If you do not provide information that we require, this may mean that we cannot provide a service, process a booking or payment, administer a membership, issue a ticket, provide a refund, allow participation in an activity, manage a complaint, consider an application, enter into a contract, pay an invoice, comply with legal obligations or permit access to particular services, premises, systems or activities.
Where information is optional, we will make this clear where appropriate. Where we request optional information, we will explain why we are asking for it and how it will be used.
We do not currently make decisions about you based solely on automated processing which produce legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affect you.
We may use automated or partly automated tools to support website security, fraud prevention, spam filtering, payment processing, account administration, analytics, marketing preference management, recruitment administration or service delivery. Where any decision would have a legal or similarly significant effect on you, we will ensure appropriate human involvement unless the law permits otherwise and we have provided the required information.
OneRen may analyse member data for the purposes of demographic and member participation analysis, benchmarking, reporting and service improvement.
If this changes, we will update this notice and provide you with information about the logic involved, the significance and envisaged consequences of such processing, and your rights in relation to automated decision-making.
Subject to certain conditions and exemptions, you have the following rights under UK data protection law.
You have the right to be informed about how we collect and use your personal information. This privacy notice is intended to provide you with that information.
You have the right to request access to the personal information we hold about you and to receive information about how we process it. This is commonly known as a subject access request (SAR).
You have the right to ask us to correct personal information we hold about you where it is inaccurate or incomplete.
You have the right to ask us to delete your personal information in certain circumstances. This right does not apply where we need to retain the information for legal compliance, public task purposes, contractual obligations, safeguarding, legal claims, regulatory requirements or other lawful reasons.
You have the right to ask us to restrict the processing of your personal information in certain circumstances, for example where you contest the accuracy of the information or object to processing and we are considering your objection.
You have the right to receive certain personal information in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format where the processing is based on consent or contract and is carried out by automated means.
You have the right to object to processing where we rely on public task, official authority, legitimate interests or recognised legitimate interests. If you object, we will consider your objection and determine whether we have compelling legitimate grounds to continue the processing, whether the processing is necessary for legal claims, or whether another lawful reason permits or requires continued processing. You also have an absolute right to object to direct marketing.
You have rights in relation to decisions based solely on automated processing, including profiling, where such decisions have legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affect you.
Where we rely on your consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn, and it will not affect processing that we carry out on another lawful basis.
