Our privacy policy


1.  Overview
 
1.1       Under the Sky Events takes the security and privacy of your data seriously. We need to gather and use information or ‘data’ about you as part of our operations and to manage our relationship with you. We intend to comply with our legal obligations under the Data Protection Act 2018 (the ‘2018 Act’) and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (‘GDPR’) in respect of data privacy and security. We have a duty to notify you of the information contained in this policy.
 
1.2       This policy applies to individuals interested in learning more about our adventures or joining us on them. You are classed as the ‘data subject’ for the purposes of this policy. We will update this policy from time to time.
 
1.3       Under the Sky Events is a ‘data controller’ for the purposes of your data. This means that we determine the purpose and means of the processing of your data.
 
1.4       This policy explains how Under the Sky Events will hold and process your information.  It explains your rights as a data subject.
 
2.  Data Protection Principles
 
2.1       Personal data must be processed in accordance with six ‘Data Protection Principles.’ It must:

  • be processed fairly, lawfully and transparently;
  • be collected and processed only for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes;
  • be adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary for the purposes for which it is processed;
  • be accurate and kept up to date. Any inaccurate data must be deleted or rectified without delay;
  • not be kept for longer than is necessary for the purposes for which it is processed; and
  • be processed securely.
 
2.2       We are accountable for these principles and must be able to show that we are compliant.
 
3.  How we define personal data
 
3.1       ‘Personal data’ means information which relates to a living person who can be identified from that data (a ‘data subject’) on its own, or when taken together with other information which is likely to come into our possession. It includes any expression of opinion about the person and an indication of the intentions of us or others, in respect of that person. It does not include anonymised data.
 
3.2       This policy applies to all personal data whether it is stored electronically, on paper or on other materials.

  • your name

You have the right to challenge our legitimate interests and request that we stop this processing. See details of your rights in section 11 below.
 
5.3       We can process your personal data for these purposes without your knowledge or consent. We will not use your personal data for an unrelated purpose without telling you about it and the legal basis that we intend to rely on for processing it.
