ST BARNABAS NORTHOLT PARK PRIVACY NOTICE

Privacy for Role Holders and Non-Role Holders

 

 

What is a Role Holder?

A role holder is anyone who holds a role in relation to St Barnabas Northolt Park. This includes those licensed or commissioned to the parish, those employed by the PCC, those holding statutory roles such as PCC member, and those holding a voluntary role such as being on a rota.

Part 1 Privacy Statement for Non-Role Holders

 

Your personal data – what is it?

 

“Personal data” is any information about a living individual which allows them to be identified from that data (for example a name, photographs, videos, email address, or address).  Identification can be by the information alone or in conjunction with any other information.  The processing of personal data is governed by [the Data Protection Bill/Act 2017 the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (the “GDPR” and other legislation relating to personal data and rights such as the Human Rights Act 1998].

 

Who are we?

 

This Privacy Notice is provided to you by the Parochial Church Council (PCC) of St Barnabas Northolt Park which is the data controller for your data.

 

The Church of England is made up of a number of different organisations and office-holders who work together to deliver the Church’s mission in each community.  The PCC works together with:

 

·         the incumbent of the parish (that is, our vicar)

·         the bishops of the Diocese of London; and

·         the London Diocesan Fund, which is responsible for the financial and administrative arrangements for the Diocese of London.

 

As the Church is made up of all of these persons and organisations working together, we may need to share personal data we hold with them so that they can carry out their responsibilities to the Church and our community.  The organisations referred to above are joint data controllers.  This means we are all responsible to you for how we process your data.

 

Each of the data controllers have their own tasks within the Church and a description of what data is processed and for what purpose is set out in this Privacy Notice.  This Privacy Notice is provided for you by the PCC on our own behalf and on behalf of each of these data controllers.  In the rest of this Privacy Notice, we use the word “we” to refer to each data controller, as appropriate.

 

What data do the data controllers listed above  process?  They will process some or all of the following where necessary to perform their tasks:

 

·            Names, titles, and aliases, photographs;

·            Contact details such as telephone numbers, addresses, and email addresses;

·            Where they are relevant to our mission, or where you provide them to us, we may process demographic information such as gender, age, date of birth, marital status, nationality, education/work histories, academic/professional qualifications, hobbies, family composition, and dependants;

·            Where you make donations or pay for activities such as use of a church hall, financial identifiers such as bank account numbers, payment card numbers, payment/transaction identifiers, policy numbers, and claim numbers;

·            The data we process is likely to constitute sensitive personal data because, as a church, the fact that we process your data at all may be suggestive of your religious beliefs.  Where you provide this information, we may also process other categories of sensitive personal data: racial or ethnic origin, sex life, mental and physical health, details of injuries, medication/treatment received, political beliefs, labour union affiliation, genetic data, biometric data, data concerning sexual orientation and criminal records, fines and other similar judicial records.

 

How do we process your personal data?

 

The data controllers will comply with their legal obligations to keep personal data up to date; to store and destroy it securely; to not collect or retain excessive amounts of data; to keep personal data secure, and to protect personal data from loss, misuse, unauthorised access and disclosure and to ensure that appropriate technical measures are in place to protect personal data.

 

We use your personal data for some or all of the following purposes:

 

·            To enable us to meet all legal and statutory obligations (which include maintaining and publishing our electoral roll in accordance with the Church Representation Rules);

·            To carry out comprehensive safeguarding procedures (including due diligence and complaints handling) in accordance with best safeguarding practice from time to time with the aim of ensuring that all children and adults-at-risk are provided with safe environments;

·            To minister to you and provide you with pastoral and spiritual care (such as visiting you when you are gravely ill or bereaved)  and to organise and perform ecclesiastical services for you, such as baptisms, confirmations, weddings and funerals;

·            To deliver the Church’s mission to our community, and to carry out any other voluntary or charitable activities for the benefit of the public as provided for in the constitution and statutory framework of each data controller;

·            To administer the parish, deanery, archdeaconry and diocesan membership records;

·            To fundraise and promote the interests of the Church and charity;

·            To maintain our own accounts and records;

·            To process a donation that you have made (including Gift Aid information);

·            To seek your views or comments;

·            To notify you of changes to our services, events and role holders;

·            To send you communications which you have requested and that may be of interest to you.  These may include information about campaigns, appeals, other fundraising activities;

·            To process a grant or application for a role;

·            To enable us to provide a voluntary service for the benefit of the public in a particular geographical area as specified in our constitution;

·            Our processing also includes the use of CCTV systems for the prevention and prosecution of crime.

 

What is the legal basis for processing your personal data?

 

Most of our data is processed because it is necessary for our legitimate interests, or the legitimate interests of a third party (such as another organisation in the Church of England).  An example of this would be our safeguarding work to protect children and adults at risk. Another example would be the using of photographs or videos of church events to promote the Gospel and to deliver the church’s mission to our community. We will always take into account your interests, rights and freedoms.

 

Some of our processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation.  For example, we are required by the Church Representation Rules to administer and publish the electoral roll, and under Canon Law to announce forthcoming weddings by means of the publication of banns.

 

We may also process data if it is necessary for the performance of a contract with you, or to take steps to enter into a contract.  An example of this would be processing your data in connection with the hire of church facilities.

 

Religious organisations are also permitted to process information about your religious beliefs to administer membership or contact details.

 

Where your information is used other than in accordance with one of these legal bases, we will first obtain your consent to that use.

 

Sharing your personal data

 

Your personal data will be treated as strictly confidential.  It will only be shared with third parties where it is necessary for the performance of our tasks or where you first give us your prior consent.  It is likely that we will need to share your data with some or all of the following (but only where necessary):

 

·         The appropriate bodies of the Church of England including the other data controllers;

·         Our agents, servants and contractors. For example, we may ask a commercial provider to send out newsletters on our behalf, or to maintain our database software;

·         Other clergy  or lay persons nominated or licensed by the bishops of the Diocese of London to support the mission of the Church in our parish.  For example, our clergy are supported by our area dean and archdeacon, who may provide confidential mentoring and pastoral support.  Assistant or temporary ministers, including curates, deacons, licensed lay ministers, commissioned lay ministers or persons with Bishop’s Permissions may participate in our mission in support of our regular clergy;

·         Other persons or organisations operating within the Diocese of London including, where relevant, the London Diocesan Board for Schools and Subsidiary Bodies;

·         On occasion, other churches with which we are carrying out joint events or activities.

 

How long do we keep your personal data?

 

We will keep some records permanently if we are legally required to do so.  We may keep some other records for an extended period of time. For example, it is current best practice to keep financial records for a minimum period of 7 years to support HMRC audits. Our nature as a church means we have a legitimate interest in keeping certain types of data for an extended period of time. For example in order to provide proper bereavement care for families we have a legitimate interest in our vicar keeping pastoral data relating to the funeral of a previous family member.  In general, we will endeavour to keep data only for as long as we need it.  This means that we may delete it when it is no longer needed.
