    (b)        Headquarter and our Regional Office Teams (identified at Contacting us) which undertake management functions; and

    (c)        Our suppliers, who assist us in providing educational and extra-curricular services. A list  of our suppliers can be provided upon request by Contacting us.

    Where these entities are outside of the EEA, we ensure that there are adequate safeguards in place to ensure the security of your Personal Data.  See Export of data outside of the EEA for more information.

    Provision of data

    Provision of data of those who submit them directly, i.e. as the case may be with Parents or Students age 18, is a statutory/contractual requirement or a requirement necessary to enter into contract. Provision of data is needed to ensure the purpose of the processing – participation of  a Student in the recruitment process to the School and Parents data in order to enable such process for the admission to School or in order to perform agreements with School for those who has been admitted to School. Lack of provision of data will make impossible to perform the aim of the processing.


    3. Use of Special Categories of Personal Data?

    As a general rule, we do not process Special Categories of Personal Data However, in order to assess the ability to learn in the enrolment process – recruitment process to School in certain very limited circumstances, required to collect, process and disclose Special Categories of Personal Data of Students:

    Health/medical information comprising information relating to any injury of a Student may sustain at School or whilst undertaking an extra-curricular activity; any disability; health conditions relevant to education; and any health problems that could affect the ability to learn, so that we can maintain a safe environment for all Students;

    In addition to the usual appropriate technical and organisational measures we implement to ensure the security and integrity of the personal data processed by us, we may implement additional measures in relation to Special Categories of Personal Data, as appropriate. These may include segregation, pseudonymisation or restriction of access to the data.

    Where we must process Special Categories of Personal Data, we will do so on the following lawful bases (see Lawful Bases for more information):

    Special Category

    Lawful bases / condition for processing

    Health/medical information

    Explicit Consent

    Religious beliefs, ethnicity and race

    Explicit Consents

    Consent

    Where a Student is under the age of 18, we will obtain explicit consent from a Parent/ responsible for a Student, on his/her behalf. This consent will remain valid until it is withdrawn by the Parent/ who provided it, or the Student, provided that:

    (a)         A Student is age 18  to withdraw consent and

    (b)        Withdrawal of consent does not have a prejudicial impact on the interests Student.

    In any instance where a Student under the age of 18 who was deemed to be capable of providing consent later withdraws that consent against his/her own best interests, we may revert to a Parent/Guardian to obtain consent on his/her behalf.

    We will obtain consent directly from any Student who is age of 18.


    4. Transmission, storage and security of Personal Data

     

    Security over the internet

     

    No data transmission over the Internet or through a website can be guaranteed to be secure from intrusion. However, we maintain commercially reasonable physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect your Personal Data, and that of any Student you are responsible for, in accordance with data protection legislative requirements.

    All information you, or any  Student you are responsible for, provide to us is stored on our or our suppliers’ secure servers and accessed and used subject to our security policies and standards. We ask that you, or any Student you are responsible for:

    (a) Refrain from sharing any password providing access to certain parts of our websites, applications or systems with any other person; and

    (b) Comply with any other security procedures that we may notify you of from time to time.

    Export outside the EEA

     

    Your Personal Data, or that of any Student you are responsible for, may be transferred to, stored in or accessed by staff or suppliers in, a destination outside the European Economic Area (EEA). Regardless of location, we will impose the same data protection safeguards that we deploy inside the EEA.

     

    Certain countries outside the EEA have been approved by the European Commission as providing essentially equivalent protections to EEA data protection laws and therefore no additional safeguards are required to export Personal Data to these jurisdictions. In countries which have not had these approvals, (see the full list here http://ec.europa.eu/justice/data-protection/international-transfers/adequacy/index_en.htm) we will transfer it subject to European Commission approved contractual terms that impose equivalent data protection obligations directly on the recipient unless we are permitted under applicable data protection law to make such transfers without such formalities.

    Please contact us if you would like to see a copy of the specific safeguards applied to the export of Personal Data relating to you or any Student you are responsible for or you would like to receive a copy of data or information on the place of making data available.

    Storage limits

     

    We will Personal Data for as long as is necessary for the processing purpose(s) for which they were collected – educational process, archiving purposes and any other permitted linked purpose until the time limit for claims. So if Personal Data is used for two purposes we will retain it until the purpose with the latest period expires; but we will stop using it for the purpose with a shorter period one that period expires. We restrict access to Personal Data to those persons who need to use it for the relevant purpose(s).

     

    Our retention periods are based on business needs and relevant laws, especially as regards the specific retention periods that may apply for School. Records that are no longer needed are either irreversibly anonymised (and the anonymised information may be retained) or securely destroyed.


    5. Rights relating to Personal Data
