Your Personal Data - What is it?

Personal data relates to a living individual who can be identified from that data. Identification can be by the information alone or in conjunction with any other information in the data controller’s possession or likely to come into such possession. The processing of personal data is governed by the General Data Protection Regulation (the “GDPR”).

Who are we?

'Ridley' of BCP2020 is the data controller (contact details below). This means he decides how your personal data is processed and for what purposes.

How do we process your personal data?

BCP2020 complies with its obligations under the “GDPR” by keeping personal data up to date; by storing and destroying it securely; by not collecting or retaining excessive amounts of data; by protecting personal data from loss, misuse, unauthorised access and disclosure and by ensuring that appropriate technical measures are in place to protect personal data.

We use your personal data for the following reasons

We obtain your personal information only if you comment on our blog.  We do not pass this information to any third party.  Your IP address is anonymised.

What is the legal basis for processing your personal data?

Processing is carried out by a not-for-profit body (BCP2020) provided that there is no disclosure to a third party without consent.

Sharing your personal data

Your personal data will be treated as strictly confidential and will not be shared with anyone else.  We will only share your data with third parties outside of this website with your consent.

  • The right to request that the data controller provide the data subject with his/her personal data and where possible, to transmit that data directly to another data controller, (known as the right to data portability).
