Introduction
• We are committed to safeguarding the privacy of our website visitors and service users.

• We use cookies on our website. Insofar as those cookies are not strictly necessary for the provision of our website and services, we will ask you to consent to our use of cookies when you first visit our website.
• In this policy, "we", "us" and "our" refer to the School of Arabic and Islamic Studies.

Who processes your information?
School of Arabic and Islamic Studies is the data controller of the personal information you provide to us. This means the school determines the purposes for which, and the manner in which, any personal data relating to students and their families (in case of minor students) is to be processed.
In some cases, your data will be outsourced to a third party processor; however, this will only be done with your consent, unless the law requires the school to share your data. Where the school outsources data to a third party processor, the same data protection standards that School of Arabic and Islamic Studies upholds are imposed on the processor.

What is "personal information"?
Personal information is information that the School holds about students and which identifies them. This includes information such as their name, date of birth and address as well as things like test results, medical details and behaviour records. Photos and video recordings of you are also personal information.

We may process data about your use of our website and services ("usage data"). The usage data may include your IP address, geographical location, browser type and version, operating system, referral source, length of visit, page views and website navigation paths, as well as information about the timing, frequency and pattern of your service use.

We may process your information included in your personal profile on our website ("profile data"). The profile data may include your name, address, telephone number, email address, profile pictures, gender, date of birth, relationship status, interests and hobbies, educational details and employment details.

We may process information contained in any enquiry you submit to us regarding goods and/or services ("enquiry data"). The enquiry data may be processed for the purposes of offering, marketing and selling relevant goods and/or services to you.
We may process information relating to transactions, including purchases of goods and services that you enter into with us and/or through our website ("transaction data"). The transaction data may include your contact details, your card details and the transaction details and may be processed for the purpose of supplying the purchased goods and services and keeping proper records of those transactions.
In addition to the specific purposes for which we may process your personal data set out in this section, we may also process any of your personal data for the purposes of offering, marketing and selling relevant goods and/or services to you

Collecting student information
Whilst the majority of student information you provide to us is mandatory, some of it is provided to us on a voluntary basis. In order to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation, we will inform you whether you are required to provide certain student information to us or if you have a choice in this.

Where we share student data such as school photographs on the school website or the school’s social media pages, you have a choice in this and we request your consent for this to be shared. Consent can be withdrawn at any time by contacting the headteacher and asking for student photographs not to be shared where the public have access.

Storing student data
This section sets out our data retention policies and procedure, which are designed to help ensure that we comply with our legal obligations in relation to the retention and deletion of personal data.
Personal data that we process for any purpose or purposes shall not be kept for longer than is necessary for that purpose or those purposes.
We will retain your personal data as follows:
(a) usage data, profile data, enquiry data, and transaction data will be retained for a minimum period of 6 years following receipt of the relevant data, and for a maximum period of 15 years.
In some cases, it is not possible for us to specify in advance the periods for which your personal data will be retained. In such cases, we will determine the period of retention based on reasonable criteria.

Who do we share student information with?
We routinely share student information with:
• the appointed first aider
• tutors in cases of allergies or medical conditions

Why we share student information?
We do not share information about our students with anyone without consent unless the law and our policies allow us to do so.

Will my information be shared with other countries?
We may send your information to other countries where:
• we communicate with you or your parents when you are overseas (for example, during the summer holidays if you live in a different country).

The European Commission has produced a list of countries which have adequate data protection rules. The list can be found here: http://ec.europa.eu/justice/dataprotection/international-transfers/adequacy/index_en.htm

If the country that we are sending your information to is not on the list or, is not a country within the EEA (which means the European Union, Liechtenstein, Norway and Iceland) then it might not have the same level of protection for personal information as there is in the UK.

Under data protection legislation, parents and students have the right to request access to information about them that we hold. To make a request for your personal information, or be given access to your child’s educational record, contact the headteacher.
