Privacy Policy

​

We want you to understand how we use your data, and why we collect the data we do.

 

1.  Transparency: You should always know what we are doing with your information (first name, second name, email address and postcode). Personal data is collected solely for the following purposes:

​

• To send newsletters and updates of interest about the West Norwood and Tulse Hill area and the activities of StreetWorks. 

• To contact people about becoming involved in or supporting the activities of StreetWorks.

• Postcode details are sought in order to analyse anonymously the distribution of StreetWorks followers.  This helps us ensure we are reaching out to the community across the area.

• Information is not shared with third parties.

• If people wish to have their data deleted then they can do so by request via email to hello@streetworks.london and it will be removed promptly (usually within a week).

• When the data is no longer required for the above purposes (e.g. if StreetWorks ceased to operate) it will be deleted from all databases.

​​

2.  Handling of data:  Data is stored online on MailChimp, Facebook, Twitter and Google Cloud (and possibly in the future other providers such as Survey Monkey).  Only the StreetWorks Communications and Outreach officer and Steering Group officers have access to this data. We do not share personalised data lists with anyone.

​

3.  Security:  We will ensure passwords for servers and devices with access to personalised data lists are strong and regularly changed.

​

4.  Website:  By visiting our website you are accepting the practices described in this policy.

​

What personal information do we collect about you?

We gather two types of information from you:

Information your web browser gives us, such as your computer's IP address, your city and your screen size. We also monitor your use of the website by seeing which pages you visit and how long you spend on them.  We send this information to Google's "Google Analytics" service so that we can measure how effectively our website is at giving you the information you're after.
