On the 25th May 2018, the UK’s Data Protection Act 1998 is being replaced by a new law called the GDPR (the EU General Data Protection Regulation 2016). This law governs how we collect, use and share people’s information and provides greater rights to individuals and control over how their information is handled by organisations, including schools.
We’re taking steps to review and update our processes around how we are handling your information and have appointed an external Data Protection Officer, to help our school comply with GDPR.
Under General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) we are obliged to inform you of the information we hold on and your child(ren), what we use it for, who we share it with, and for how long we keep it. This privacy notice (also known as a fair processing notice) aims to provide you with this information. If any information linked to is unclear, please contact the school office or the school’s Data Protection Officer.
If you would like to know more about the GDPR and your rights, please visit the UK’s data protection regulator, the Information Commissioner’s Office at www.ico.gov.uk
Should you have any queries regarding the GDPR and our school, please email us at: admin-office@st-marys.hackney.sch.uk
