We may allow selected third parties to use tracking technology on the Site, which will enable them to collect data about how you interact with the Site over time. This information may be used to, among other things, analyze and track data, determine the popularity of certain content and better understand online activity. We do not share, sell, rent or trade any of your information with third parties for their promotional purposes.  

In Short: We may use cookies and other tracking technologies to collect and store your information.  

We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (like web beacons and pixels) to access or store information. Specific information about how we use such technologies and how you can refuse certain cookies is set out in our Cookie Policy (https://rosegaletrust.org/cookie-policy-uk/)

Our website, email and file storage servers are located in United States. Please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the facilities hosted by our third party processors (see “Will your information be shared with anyone” above). 

We will however take all necessary measures to protect your personal information in accordance with this privacy policy and applicable data protection law. 

In particular Rose Gale has contractual agreements with our processors based on the EU Commission’s standard contractual clauses or, where appropriate, relying on Corporate Binding Rules to ensure our processors comply with similar standards of data protection law to that of the UK. If you have any questions or need more information regarding international transfers of your personal data, please contact us at info@rosegaletrust.org.

No purpose in this policy will require us keeping your personal information for longer than 3 years.

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymise it, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

In Short: We aim to protect your personal information through a system of organisational and technical security measures. 

We have implemented appropriate technical and organisational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, please also remember that we cannot guarantee that the internet itself is 100% secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our Site is at your own risk. You should only access the services within a secure environment. 

In Short: You have rights that allow you greater access to and control over your personal information. You may review, change, or request we delete your personal information any time.

In certain circumstances, you may also have the right to object to the processing of your personal information. To make such a request, please Contact Us. We will consider and act upon any request in accordance with applicable data protection laws. 

If we are relying on your consent to process your personal information, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. Please note however that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before its withdrawal.

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. No uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Privacy Policy. 

In Short: Yes, we will update this policy as necessary to stay compliant with relevant laws.

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. The updated version will be indicated by an updated “Revised” date and the updated version will be effective as soon as it is accessible.
