Your Information
CA London does not request, collect or process personal information from its membership* (see note below), from professionals or from the general public. However our Website and Instagram may collect certain data to enable the operation of these systems.
*Please note:
• We do store some members’ email addresses on the system to enable them to make changes to their meeting information if they chose to be able to do so. The email address is stored in a closed part of the system that is password protected, with access limited to the Website Administrators. As and when the person rotates from their service position, their email address is deleted from the system.
• We do store some members’ first name, initial and mobile phone number on the system if they are a Meeting Responder. We display this information on the website with their additional permission. This data is collected to enable communication between Call Takers, Helpline Chairs, and Meeting Responders. As and when Meeting Responders rotate from their position, their information is deleted from the system.
• All information is securely stored and is only used for the purpose specified. The storage and handling of personal information complies with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Comments
When visitors leave comments on our systems we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymised string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service Privacy Policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Use of our Instagram page may be subject to further processing of your personal data by Instagram. In this respect (especially with regard to the technical enabling of the use of our Instagram page), we refer to the privacy policy of Instagram. The privacy policy is available here: https://help.instagram.com/155833707900388

How long we retain your data

All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
