Changes to this policy

This policy was published on 29 January 2019.

We may change this policy from time to time, when we do we will inform you via a notice on our website.


PRIVACY POLICY For all of us at Slough Irish Club, the protection of personal data is of paramount importance and we go to great lengths to ensure that we collect and use personal data lawfully and only for specific purposes.

This Notice applies to any personal data which we process about personnel of customers, suppliers, partners and other organisations who we work with as part of our business operations, visitors to our website and users of our products and services (each of which we refer to in this Notice as “data subject” or “you”). This does not apply to our existing employees, directors, contractors and workers as another privacy notice which can be found on our Sharepoint applies to them.

In this Notice we explain the things which we think are important for you to know about the personal data we collect from you such as who we are, how we use your data, how we protect your data and who we may share your data with. We also explain the rights you have in relation to your personal data which we hold. Finally, there’s a bit about cookies – what they are and how to get rid of them if you don’t want them. If you have any questions relating to how we handle your personal data, please write or email us at the contact address set out below.

This Notice does not cover the links within our website linking to other websites. We encourage you to read the privacy statements of the other websites you visit.

Slough Irish Club is committed to keeping information provided by you confidential and we shall always be transparent with you about how we are using your details to comply with the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation).

Who collects the information

Where we process personal data on behalf of another company or organisation, we will be doing so as a data processor and our processing will be governed by a contract which we will have with the data controller who will have their own separate privacy notice which will apply.

Data protection principles

We will comply with the data protection principles when gathering and using personal information, as set out in our Data Privacy Standard.

About the information we collect and hold

The table set out in the Schedule summarises the information we collect and hold, how and why we do so and how we use it.

Who we share the information with

We may share the information with:

  • Service providers acting as processors based within or outside the EEA who provide IT and system administration services such as DocuSign, Microsoft 365, Sharepoint.
  • Service providers who provide us with market research services or marketing services
Usually, information will be anonymised but this may not always be possible. The recipient of the information will be bound by confidentiality obligations. We may also be required to share some personal information with our regulators or as required to comply with the law.

We seek to ensure that our information collection and processing is always proportionate. We will notify you of any changes to information we collect or to the purposes for which we collect and process it.

Where information may be held

Information may be held at our offices and those of our group company, and third party agencies, service providers, representatives and agents as described above. We currently store your personal details on our servers in Europe but information may be transferred internationally to countries around the world, including countries that do not have data protection laws equivalent to those in the UK, for the reasons described above. We have security measures in place to seek to ensure that there is appropriate security for information we hold, including those measures detailed in the NGA Information Security Policy available on Sharepoint.

How long we keep your information

We keep your information for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal information is processed.

You also have the right to ask our data privacy manager for some but not all of the information we hold and process to be erased (the ‘right to be forgotten’) in certain circumstances. Our data privacy manager will provide you with further information about the right to be forgotten, if you ask for it.

As a data subject, as per the law, you also have the right to request the stopping of the processing of your personal data for certain purposes such as direct marketing.

To safeguard the personal data we hold, we need to confirm your identity before we can take action following a request made under this section.

Keeping your personal information secure

We have appropriate security measures in place to prevent personal information from being accidentally lost, or used or accessed in an unauthorised way. These measures include restricting physical access to our premises where personal data is held and using access controls and firewalls to prevent unauthorised access to our systems.

We limit access to your personal information to those who have a genuine business need to know it. Those processing your information will do so only in an authorised manner and are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

We recommend that you also take steps to safeguard your personal data against the risk of unauthorised access or accidental loss or corruption by backing up your personal data. Where we provide you with password-restricted access to our website, software and/or services, it is your responsibility to use a strong password and to keep it private.

We also have procedures in place to deal with any suspected data security breach. We will notify you and any applicable regulator of a suspected data security breach where we are legally required to do so.

We reserve the right to update or change our Privacy Notice at any time and you should check this Privacy Notice periodically.
