ACTA is now a CIO (Community Interest Organisation). ACTAs policies and procedures are inline with both the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) and the Privacy of Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR).
This policy explains how we collect your personal data, what we do with it and how we keep it securely. For ease of reading we’ve split the policy into distinct areas:
Why does ACTA collect Data?
Data is collected primarily for organising the National Conference, for newsletter distribution and for communicating with its members. You can ask for this data to be deleted as long as it does not put ACTA in contravention of any finacial rules or leads to prosecution for lack of due diligence e.g. the processing of fianacial payments made by you.
Sometimes we offer you the opportunity of making doantions and we record who has made a donation and for how much. This data shared with the Leadershio Team as deemed necessary by the Finance Secretary.
what data does ACTA hold?
Name, contact details, date of birth, your booking and/or donation history with us and any other information you share with us as part of your interaction with ACTA (e.g. access needs, dietary requirements) we keep a record of the mailings and emails we send you, and we may track whether you receive or open them so we can make sure we are sending you the most relevant information. We may then track any subsequent actions online, such as buying a ticket.
Sensitive information
Sometimes we ask you to provide sensitive information, for example when you book for certain events or participate in some activities. As with all the personal information we hold, sensitive information is held securely and restricted to those who need to use it. We will delete sensitive information when we no longer need it.
* We maintain a record of your transaction history, but we never store your card number. All transactions are made securely through PayPal.
how is that data collected?

• At the point of sale for tickets.• when you voluntarily take part in a survey and give us permission to use your information• when you make a donation• when you join a mailing list
Googlegroups
We will add your email address to the national ACTA and Diocesan Googlegroups. You have the option to unsubscribe at the bottom of each email you receive and can decide how frequently you receive these emails through the googlegroups.com settings.
