How do we use this information
The information we gather is used for contacting you about books you may have ordered, sending you your regular Bible study notes or other publications that you have requested, and may also be used to send you updates and information about our work depending upon the permissions you have given.
 
Consent
From June 2018 we will process this information based on the consent you have given us.
If you are an existing customer, we will use your custom over the previous three year period as a legitimate interest reason to continue sending you any communications you receive from us.

Protecting your personal information
The security of your information is very important to us. We will ensure there are appropriate controls and procedures in place for this purpose. Any information you supply to us is protected by storage on a secure server.
 
We undertake regular reviews of who has access to the information we hold to ensure that your details are only accessible by appropriately trained and authorised staff.
 
Keeping your information up to date
We would appreciate it if you would let us know if your details change, as this gives us the consent to use the updated information to continue to communicate with you.
 
How long we will keep your information for
We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as necessary to carry out the activity relevant to your interactions with us, and for up to three years afterwards unless you request we delete it.
If you ask us to cease communications with you, we will still keep a record of your contact details unless you request we delete them.
