4.       How we protect your personal data

4.1.     We will not transfer your personal data outside the UK or EU without your consent BUT we will inform you if the Club’s hosted services, website and/or email server are outside of the UK or EU and therefore your data is held outside of the UK or EU.  We do not have any control over where Meetup data is stored.

4.2.     We have implemented generally accepted standards of technology and operational security in order to protect personal data from loss, misuse, or unauthorised alteration or destruction.

4.3.     Please note however that where you are transmitting information to us over the internet this can never be guaranteed to be 100% secure.

4.4.     For any payments, which we take from you online, we will use a recognised online secure payment system.

4.5.     We will notify you promptly in the event of any breach of your personal data, which might expose you to serious risk.

5.       Who else has access to the information you provide us?

5.1.     We will never sell your personal data. We will not share your personal data with any third parties without your prior consent (which you are free to withhold) except where we are required to do so by law or as set out in the table above or in paragraphs 5.2 and 5.3 below.

5.2.     We may pass your personal data to third parties who are service providers, agents and subcontractors to us for the purposes of completing tasks and providing services to you on our behalf (e.g. to print newsletters and send you mailings). We do this for the purpose of our legitimate interests in operating the Club and for performing our contract with you. However, we disclose only the personal data that is necessary for the third party to deliver the service and we have a contract in place that requires them to keep your information secure and not to use it for their own purposes. It is possible that third parties may themselves engage others (sub-processors) to process your data. Where this is the case, third parties will be required to have contractual arrangements with their sub-processor(s) that ensure your information is kept secure and not used for their own purposes.

5.3.     We may also pass your personal data to the AIVC for the purposes of carrying out surveys when it is in the legitimate interest of the club and the AIVC to do so. The AIVC may use third parties to carry out the surveys but disclose only the personal data that is necessary for the third party to do so and will have a contract in place that require the third party to keep your information secure and not to use it for their own purposes.

6.       How long do we keep your information?

6.1.     We will hold your personal data on our systems for as long as you are a member of the Club and for as long afterwards as it is in the Clubs’ legitimate interest to do so or for as long as is necessary to comply with our legal obligations. We will review your personal data every year to establish whether we are still entitled to process it. If we decide that we are not entitled to do so, we will stop processing your personal data

6.2.     We will retain your personal data in an archived form in order to be able to comply with future legal obligations e.g. compliance with tax requirements and exemptions, and the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

6.3.     Although we don't store financial information (banking details) about members we temporarily hold member's cheques (which have account numbers) and might occasionally have to ask a member for their banking details (e.g. to make a payment into the account).  We will securely destroy all  such information once we have finished using it and no longer need it.
