Privacy and Cookies

General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) aims to give citizens more control over their data and to create a uniformity of rules to enforce across the continent.

What’s different?

The GDPR places a greater emphasis on the rights of the data subject. These rights are:

The right to be informed
The right of access
The right of rectification
The right to erasure
The right to restrict processing
The right to data portability
The right to object
Rights in relation to automated decision making and profiling

What does this have to do with me?

As a result of the GDPR, a number of changes need to be made to the ways in which the College holds and processes personal data, and it is important that you are aware of your responsibilities.

Please read Barton Peveril Sixth Form College GDPR Privacy Policies which can be accessed below:

According to the new regulation, all personal data must be:

Processed lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner in relation to individuals
Collected for specific, explicit and legitimate purposes, and not further processed in a manner that is incompatible with those purposes
Adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purposes for which they are processed
Accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date; steps should be taken to rectify or erase without delay
Kept in a form which permits identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data are processed
Processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the data

The GDPR also includes an accountability principle which states that we must be able to demonstrate compliance with the above principles.
