At The Children’s Day Nursery we respect the privacy of the children attending the
Nursery and the privacy of their parents or carers. The personal information
that we collect about you and your child is used only to provide appropriate
care for them, maintain our service to you, and communicate with you
effectively. Our legal basis for processing the personal information relating
to you and your child is so that we can fulfil our contract with you.
Any information that you provide is
kept secure. Data that is no longer required* is erased after your child has
ceased attending our Nursery.
We will use the contact details you
give us to contact you via phone, email, social media etc and other relevant
news, and also so that we can communicate with you regarding payment of our
fees.
We will only share personal
information about you or your child with another organisation if we:
·
have a safeguarding concern about your child
- are required to by government bodies or law enforcement agencies
- engage a supplier to process data on our behalf (e.g. to take
online bookings, or to issue invoices)
- have obtained your prior permission.
You have the right to ask to see the
data that we have about yourself or your child, and to ask for any errors to be
corrected. We will respond to all such requests within one month. You can also
ask for the data to be deleted, but note that:
·
we will not be able to
continue to care for your child if we do not have sufficient information about
them
·
even after your child has
left our care, we have a statutory duty to retain some types of data for
specific periods of time* so can’t delete everything immediately.
If you have a complaint about how we
have kept your information secure, or how we have responded to a request to
access, update or erase your data, you can refer us to the Information
Commissioner’s Office (ICO).
