What we do with it
Processing of requests
We collect personal information each time you deal with us, for example when you provide your contact details in writing to staff or volunteers; request materials or information; sign up for a social event; pay for a course for you or your children, or otherwise provide your personal details. We may use the personal data we collect:
Basis of processing your data
So that we can provide services you have requested, and keep you informed about news, events, activities and services and process your orders, we will process your personal data on the basis of legitimate interest. You are free to change your preferences at any time.
Processing based on legitimate interest is necessary for carrying out obligations under employment, social security or social protection law, or a collective agreement. Legitimate interest is also the basis of our processing relating to customers or former customers (or those who have regular contact with us in connection with these purposes).
Applying for a job or volunteering with us
Where you provide personal data and sensitive personal data when applying for a job or volunteer role with us, such as the information on your CV, we will process, store and disclose the personal data we collect to:
How and where we store your information
How long?
We will keep your personal information only for as long as we consider it necessary to carry out each activity. We have a data retention policy to implement this. We take account of legal obligations and accounting and tax considerations as well as considering what would be reasonable for the activity concerned.
Security
We ensure that we have appropriate technical controls in place to protect any personal data you provide. For example, we ensure that any online forms are encrypted and our network is protected and routinely monitored. We ensure that access to personal data is restricted only to those staff members or volunteers whose job roles require such access and that suitable training is provided for these staff members and volunteers.
We may make limited use from time to time of external companies to collect or process personal data on our behalf. When we do so, we carry out checks on these companies, put in place contracts to make sure our requirements are clear, and carry out periodic reviews. When we do use external companies, we remain responsible for the storing and processing of your personal data.
Credit/Debit card security
If you use your debit or credit card to purchase something or pay for an event online, we will process your information securely in accordance with the Payment Card Industry Data Standard. We may hold your bank account details if you have asked us to set up a direct debit or standing order for you, which are stored securely and retained in line with legal requirements.
Where we store your personal information
We use cloud-based systems to process data and therefore data may be processed outside of the UK. We adopt the Information Commissioners approved measures and therefore ensure that personal data is held in compliance with UK data protection regulations. We take all reasonable steps to ensure that your data is stored and processed securely in accordance with this policy. By submitting your personal data you agree to this transfer, storing and processing of your information.
When we share your personal information
Your personal data will be treated as strictly confidential and will only be shared with staff in order to carry out a service or for purposes connected with your activities with DRH Sports. We will only share your data with third parties with your consent.
Legal duty
We may need to pass on information if required by law or by a regulatory body. For example, if asked for details by a law enforcement agency.
Our service providers
We do not sell or pass any of your personal information to any other organisations and/or individuals without your express consent, with the following exception – by providing us with your details you are giving DRH Sports Ltd. your express permission to transfer your data to our service providers including mailing houses, such as Mailigen and MailChimp, to enable fulfilment of the purpose for collection.
Where such details are shared we have confidentiality agreements in place that restrict the use of your information to the purpose for which it is provided and ensure it is stored securely and kept no longer than necessary. We may employ agents to carry out tasks on our behalf. These agents are bound by contract to protect your data and we remain responsible for their actions.
We may provide third parties with general information about users of our site, but this information is both aggregate and anonymous. However, we may use IP address information to identify a user if we feel that there are or may be safety and/or security issues or to comply with legal requirements.

Third party cookies
We work with a number of third party suppliers who set cookies on our website to enable them to provide us with services.

We do not control the setting of these cookies, so we suggest you check the third party website for more information about their cookies and how to manage them.
We also use third party suppliers such as Google Analytics and these providers may use cookies. They may also use tracking pixels, which are commonly found in advertising to track the effectiveness of adverts. As some of these services may be based outside of the UK and the European Union, they may not fall under the jurisdiction of UK courts.
