What is the purpose of this notice? 

To describe how we collect and use personal data about you by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). 

What we need 

Cullercoats Methodist Church will be what is known as the “Controller” of the personal data you provide to us. We do not collect any personal data on this site.

What are your rights?

We want to ensure that you remain in control of your personal data. Part of this is making sure you understand your legal rights, which are as follows: 

• the right to confirmation as to whether we have your personal data and, if we do, to obtain a copy of the personal information we hold (this is known as a data subject access request)
• the right to have your data erased (though this will not apply where we must continue to use the data for a lawful reason)
• the right to have inaccurate data rectified
• the right to object to your data being used for marketing or profiling; and
• where technically feasible, you have the right to personal data you have provided to us which we process automatically based on your consent or the performance of a contract. This information will be provided in a common electronic format.

Please keep in mind that there are exceptions to the rights above and, though we will always try to respond to your satisfaction, there may be situations where we are unable to do so.

If you wish to raise a complaint on how we have handled your personal data, you can contact churchoffice@cullercoatsmethodistchurch.co.uk

If you are not satisfied with our response or believe we are processing your personal data not by the law you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office, the UK supervisory authority for data protection issues.
