Future Transport Visions Group (“FTVG”, and references to “we”, “our” and “us” shall be construed accordingly) is committed to protecting and respecting your Privacy.
We are committed to protecting your personal information and privacy. This Privacy Policy describes exactly how we collect and use your personal information.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time so please check back periodically. We will notify you of significant changes by placing a notice on our website.
By contacting us, using our services or visiting our website you’re agreeing to be bound by this Policy.
Everyone has rights about the way in which their personal data in handled. During our activities, we will collect, store and process personal data about applicants, Trustees, suppliers and other third parties. We recognise that the correct and lawful treatment of this data will maintain confidence in the organisation and will provide for successful business operations.
We are known as the ‘controller’ of the personal data you provide to us. Your personal data, which may be held on paper or on a computer or other media, is subject to certain legal safeguards specified in the Data Protection Act and equivalent EU regulations.
We will usually collect basic personal data about you when you interact with us, for example when applying for a grant e.g. your name, postal address, telephone number, email address. Sometimes we will collect other information about you such as your date of birth and gender; and your bank details if you are in receipt of a grant from us or provide services to us.
We will be very clear with you why we need to collect such information and our reason for collecting such information.
We may also collect information about how our website is used and track which pages users visit. We use this information to monitor and improve our website. Where possible we use anonymous or aggregated data that does not identify individuals.
We use the information to process grant or bursary applications from you, to make grant payments or to pay for other services.
Under Article 6 of the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) our lawful basis for processing and holding personal information is ‘legitimate interest’ as it is necessary for us to use this information to provide you with access to our services.
We will never sell your data to any third party nor will we share your details with other entities for marketing purposes. Neither do we send direct marketing communications ourselves.
We will only share information with other organisations or individuals where we have your permission to do so in accordance with this Privacy Policy or where it is necessary for a legitimate reason connected with the services we offer, or where it is required by law or regulation.
We hold your information only as long as necessary for the purposes we use it for.
A new data protection law, starting in May 2018, gives everyone several very important rights. These are:
Remember, you can change the way you hear from us or withdraw your permission for us to processing your personal data at any time by contacting the Secretary (details below).
Your security is important to us. To prevent unauthorised access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures in place to safeguard and secure the information we collect.
The accuracy of your information is important to us. If you change email address, or any of the other information we hold is inaccurate or out of date, please email us info@ftvg.co.uk
If you wish to talk through anything in our privacy policy, find out more about your rights or obtain a copy of the information we hold about you, please contact the Secretary (details at the bottom of this page) who will be happy to help.
