DATA PROTECTION, PRIVACY POLICY & COOKIES

The Devizes Eisteddfod is a performing arts organisation run entirely by volunteers and registered with the Charity Commission (No 1044341).

This policy explains how we use any personal information we collect about you:

What information do we collect about you?
We collect information about you when you register to compete in the Eisteddfod, apply to become a member of the Eisteddfod/Friend of the Eisteddfod or volunteer as a steward and also if you voluntarily complete surveys or give feedback. We will only ask for such information as is necessary for the efficient administration of the Eisteddfod. We do not collect ‘sensitive personal data’ unless there is a legitimate reason for this – where an entrant may need support to participate in a class.

How will we use the information about you?
We collect information about you in order to process your entry to classes in the Eisteddfod and for any other administrative functions of the Eisteddfod. Access to this data will be restricted to those personnel who administer the Eisteddfod.

Access to your data and correction
You have the right to request a copy of the information that we hold about you. This can be obtained, without charge, by application to the Director (email: jemmab@devizes-eisteddfod.org.uk). We want to make sure that your personal information is accurate and up to date and all reasonable efforts will be made to ensure this is the case. You may ask us to correct or remove information you think is inaccurate.

Do we share this information with anyone else?
The Eisteddfod will not pass collected data to any third party unless required to do so by law, but it should be noted that names (only) of performers will appear in the Eisteddfod programme and website and possibly in press coverage of the event. If you do not wish your name to appear in this way, please inform either the Director.
