Data Protection Act 2018 - GDPR

Stroud Camera Club Data Privacy Policy
Designed to conform to the EU GDPR 2018

In plain English
In order to run Stroud Camera Club we hold a small amount of information about our members, and other interested parties.

This enables us to send out the weekly email, contact previous entrants to Stroud Camera Club Young Photographer Competition, arrange club and inter-club competitions where we associate a photo and the photographer’s name, etc.

We do not pass this information onto external parties for any reason, other than to other Camera Clubs for the purposes of organising external competitions between our clubs where a minimum of information is required by the external club under GDPR.

The change that GDPR brings is that we need to have a policy (this document) which states what data we hold, what we do with it and who has access to it.

If you have any questions related to the data we hold on you then please contact chairman@stroudcameraclub.co.uk
