Data Protection
St Mary’s, as an organisation, is required to comply with the Data Protection Act 1998. In order to achieve this we have introduced a Data Protection Policy.
It is a requirement that we inform all individuals of the purposes for which their information will be used.
St Mary’s will use personal data for two main purposes:
- The day-to-day administration of the church: e.g. pastoral care and oversight including calls and visits, preparation of ministry rotas, maintaining financial records of giving (for audit and tax purposes), electoral roll, membership of groups and committees.
- Contacting you to keep you informed of church events and activities.
Personal information will not be passed onto any third parties except in the exceptional circumstances allowed by law. Further details are available in the Data Protection Policy. If you think that the contact details we currently have for you may be out of date, please contact the Church Secretary. If you DO NOT want your personal details to be held by St Mary’s and used for the purposes described above, please contact the Church Secretary.
