Your Privacy

ReformNet is committed to the highest privacy standards. When you choose to interact with us, we will only collect data that is necessary for us to run our networking organisation. This policy provides detailed information on when and why we collect your personal information, how we use it and the very limited conditions under which we may disclose it to others.
​
Collection of your Personal Information
In addition to your basic contact information (name, telephone numbers, email address and your business addresses) we will collect other relevant details.
​
This may include your job title, business interests, and attendance at our events, where relevant.
​
How we use this information
The information we collect about you is used to ensure we can provide you with a fit-for-purpose networking group and keep you up to date with events and other developments. We use your contact information to respond to queries from you. We may occasionally contact you to ask for your feedback on networking events.
​
We process your data based on your consent, our legitimate interests in running a professional networking group, or to comply with legal obligations.
​
Our policy on storage, processing and retention of your information.
We retain your information for as long as you are a member of ReformNet.
After you cease to be a member, we will retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. Personal data no longer required will be securely deleted or anonymised.
​
Your rights with respect to the Personal Information we hold
You are entitled to access the personal information that we hold on you; any such request should be made using our contact details below. If any data we hold is inaccurate, this will be corrected promptly on request. In certain circumstances, you can request that we erase your data, which we will do where this would not prevent us from meeting our legal and regulatory obligations.
​
You also have the right to object to processing, request data portability, and lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) if you believe your data rights have been breached.

You may ask that we do not send you communications using any of the contact details we hold on our records, this may include your email, SMS, telephone and postal information. Your personal preferences can be changed at any time by using the link at the end of every email and SMS message we send or by using our contact details below.
