Data Protection
Discussion ensued regarding the current legislation concerning data protection when it was agreed that a form would be sent, by e mail, to all members on the Association’s database. The Association would require permission to hold personal information ie email addresses, relating to any person on the database. However, if anyone gives us their name and contact details then, under the legislation, they are deemed to have given us their consent to be contacted by us. If, at any future date, they decide that they do not wish to be contacted again they should inform the Chairman and all their details will be deleted from our database and no further contact with them will be initiated by EVRA.
The script on the attendance sheet will have to be amended in order to advise everyone that, by giving their details, they are giving their consent to be contacted.
Chairman will issue a new Privacy Policy, in the next month, setting out how personal information on members, and others, is dealt with.
