How we use the information about you and how long we keep it
We gather this information to allow us to process your newsletter request or assist you with any enquiry you may have. The relevant information is then used by us to communicate with you on any matter relating to your enquiry or newsletter requests. We may also inform you about any changes to our website, services or other work, or ask for your views about our work.
We will not pass your data to anyone outside SCRP without first obtaining your consent, unless we are obliged or permitted by law to disclose it.
We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as you are receiving the service you have requested, and remove it when the purpose has been met, or you request us to do so.

How we protect your information
We have put in place the following security procedures and technical and organisational measures to safeguard your personal information: the website server is firewalled and passwords are used to protect personal data.
We will use all reasonable efforts to safeguard your personal information. However, you should be aware that the Internet is not entirely secure and for this reason we cannot absolutely guarantee the security or integrity of personal information which is transferred from you or to you, via the Internet.

You have the right to request a copy of the information that we hold about you. If you would like a copy of your personal information, please send an email to info@sussexcrp.org
