The type of personal information we collect

We currently collect and process personal information provided by you to the Archive, as well as some personal information collected indirectly (see below).  Two specific examples of personal information collected are as follows:
–              Names and email addresses;
–              Dates of birth and details of spousal/familial relationships (for use on the Cayzer family tree).

How we get the personal information and why we have it

Some of the personal information we process is provided to us directly by you for one of the following reasons:
–              Contacting the Archive regarding requests for information;
–              Being added to the Archive’s mailing list on direct request;
–              Entering into a contract with the Archive for supply of goods or services to the charity.

We also hold some personal information that has been acquired directly or indirectly for use on the Cayzer family tree.  The version appearing on the Archive’s website is limited to names, years of birth, and spousal/familial relationships for living family members over 18 years of age.  This limited information is usually already in the public domain.

We use the information that we hold solely in order to contact you with responses to your queries, to send newsletters to family members on our mailing list (if requested), and to populate and maintain the Cayzer family tree as part of our charitable objects to advance education for the public benefit by the preservation, maintenance, and exhibition of the historical archives of the Cayzer family business.

Disclosure of personal data to third parties

This may be
–              to provide services or perform obligations where a contract is in place;
–              for management and administration of the Archive’s business, or its internal policies & procedures;
–              to IT contractors, or other third-party service providers, bound by obligations of confidentiality;
–              as required by law, regulation, or court order (e.g. if the Archive is required to comply with any legal or regulatory obligation); and
–              in order to defend the Archive’s legal rights (e.g. in the case of seeking legal advice or in connection with legal proceedings).
