A note on data protection and our GDPR compliance

 

This note on data protection and our GDPR compliance acts as the Londependence party's privacy policy.


Full Members and Associate Members joining the Londependence party, along with email subscribers, volunteers, and people with a general interest in the party, are asked for a few basic details. The personal data which we collect may include:

- Name & Surname;

- Email address;

- Phone number;

- Address;

- Affiliation to the party;

- Political opinion;

- Availability.

This information is collected by the Londependence party secretary (who is also the party's data protection officer). The Londependence party may collect personal data via a variety of means and sources, depending on your relationship with the party. The details collected are securely stored and processed using NationBuilder and MemberMojo. In data protection terms, both NationBuilder and MemberMojo are data processors for the Londependence party's member data. Our data processors adhere to strict privacy policies which can be found at the following web addresses:

https://nationbuilder.com/gdpr

https://membermojo.co.uk/mm/help/privacy

Please note that if you click on a link to another website (such as those of NationBuilder or MemberMojo), that website or organization's own privacy policy applies there rather than ours. Our note on data protection and our GDPR compliance does not apply to external websites/organisations.


The Londependence party collects and processes the personal data listed above, in the manner described above, so that it can deliver its core service, fulfil its contractual obligations with each member, perform tasks carried out in the public interest, initiate and complete activities that support and/or promote democratic engagement, and comply with its constitutional and/or legal requirements.


With the exception of its chosen data processors (currently the NationBuilder and MemberMojo platforms), the Londependence party will not share your personal data with third parties without your explicit consent unless it is required to do so by law.

The Londependence party will not sell your personal data to third parties.


The Londependence party would like to make sure you are fully aware of all of your data protection rights. Every member is entitled to the following:

- The right to access – You have the right to request copies of your personal data.

- The right to rectification – You have the right to request the correction of any information you believe is inaccurate. You also have the right to request the completion of the information you believe is incomplete.

- The right to erasure – You have the right to request erasure of your personal data, under certain conditions.

- The right to restrict processing – You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data, under certain conditions.

- The right to object to processing – You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data, under certain conditions.

- The right to data portability – You have the right to request the transfer of the data that we have collected to another organization, or directly to you, under certain conditions.

If you make a request, the Londependence party secretary has one month to respond to you. If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please contact the Londependence party at the following email: [email protected]


Please note that the Londependence party is not always obliged to stop processing and/or erase personal data when asked to do so. If for any reason the Londependence party believes that it has a good legal reason to continue processing personal data that you ask to stop being processed and/or erased, you will be informed of this and provided with the reason.

In the event of you making a request which results in the Londependence party being unable to deliver its core service, fulfil its contractual obligations with any member, perform tasks carried out in the public interest, initiate and complete activities that support and/or promote democratic engagement, and/or comply with its constitutional and/or legal requirements, the Londependence party reserves the right to cancel your membership.


The Londependence party will only retain personal data for so long as it is required to meet the purposes set out in this note on data protection and our GDPR compliance, unless a longer retention period is required by law. This may include holding your data after you have ceased to engage with the party (e.g. ceasing to be a member) where the Londependence party has a legitimate interest in doing so. The Londependence party's data retention period is a maximum of 7 years from collection or re-consent. Excluding exempt data in the UK Data Protection Act and excluding data where the Londependence party has a legitimate interest in retaining said data for longer, this applies to all types of data, unless a different period is required by law. The Londependence party's data refresh and re-consent cycle is no more than 7 years from collection or re-consent. Excluding exempt data in the UK Data Protection Act and excluding data where the Londependence party has a legitimate interest, this applies to all types of data, unless a different period is required by law.


The Londependence party keeps its privacy policy under regular review and places any updates on this note on data protection and our GDPR compliance. To the extent permitted by law, the Londependence party reserves the right to change, update or modify its privacy policy with or without notice. This privacy policy was last updated on 10th January 2021. If you have any queries, please contact the Londependence party at the following email: [email protected]
