Data Protection Policy

 

Under the new General Data Protection Regulations we updated our Data Protection Policy on 29th September 2021.  This sets out what information we hold about people, the legal basis for doing so and how we will protect it.

We also have a data retention schedule that says how long various data is held by the church.

You have the right to ask to see any information we hold about you by submitting a ‘Subject Access Request’ to the Church Secretary. You also have the right to ask for information which you believe to be incorrect to be rectified.

Safeguarding

 

We take the safeguarding of everyone who attends the activities of our church very seriously.  Those who work with children, young people and adults at risk are all checked through the Disclosure and Barring Service.  They are all trained in Safeguarding procedures at regular intervals.  We have a Safeguarding Policy Document which has been adapted from the Baptist Union of Great Britain's model safeguarding document and this is reviewed annually.  To read our Safeguarding Policy please click on the PDF document below.
