How and why we process your personal data
In relation to responding to your enquiries
The data we process is provided by you when you make your enquiry, whether you make your enquiry in writing, by phone, in person. It will include your name and contact details, and information about your enquiry. This data is used by RaNTRans staff to respond to your enquiry.
We will keep details of you and your enquiry for a maximum of five years. This is to help us respond more effectively to any further enquiries you make in the future.
This processing is considered necessary for the legitimate interests pursued by the RaNTrans project, i.e. providing information to increase understanding of the project.
We will also carry out analysis of the enquiries we receive, including making links between enquiries and the content we produce. We do this to help us improve the quality and relevance of our communications, and to help increase our engagement with particular groups as part of our work on raising awareness of the project.
When we carry out this analysis we remove your personal information – including your name and contact information – and focus on the nature of your enquiry and any details you may have provided about the sector you work in, the organisation you work for, and your general geographical location. The analysis is not concerned with you as individuals: we do not use the information to identify you as an individual, and the analysis is not linked back to you as an individual.
This processing is considered necessary for legitimate interests pursued by the RaNTrans project, and necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest, i.e. raising awareness of the project and what we do, and to share knowledge of interest to the public.
In relation to sending you further information likely to be relevant or of interest to you
The data we process for these purposes is provided by you when you subscribe to our mailing list, whether through the website or when you submit an enquiry. It will include your name, contact details and preferences. This data is used by RaNTRans staff to send you information which we think will be of interest to you. This would include updates and information about the RaNTrans project. We often use external mailing systems such as Mailchimp to manage mailings of this type.
You will have completed a form or answered questions on the phone to confirm your agreement to receiving particular types of information, and you will have been asked to indicate which method(s) of communication you accept. We only send you these communications with your agreement and in line with your stated preferences. Any external mailing system used, such as Mailchimp, should provide you with separate privacy information about how they handle your data. You can change your preferences or stop these contacts at any time by following the advice provided in each mailing, or by contacting us.
We do not share our mailing lists with any third parties who would use it to contact you separately.
We will carry out periodic review of our mailing lists. We may stop sending you communications if we determine that they are unlikely to still be of use or interest to you, otherwise we will keep your details on the mailing list for a maximum of five years after the end of the project.
This processing is based on your consent. This means that you have agreed that we can use your data for this specific purpose. You are able to withdraw your consent at any time. When you are asked for consent, you will also be given details of how to withdraw your consent.
In relation to media content you may send us
The data we process is provided by you as part of an image release form when you share media content with us. It will include your name and contact details. This data is used by RaNTRans staff to contact you in relation to the submitted content and its use.
With your permission, we may use your content on our website and/or other publications with an agreed public attribution, such as your name. We may also share the media content and associated copyright information with our partner organisations.
We will keep details of you and your submission for a maximum of five years after the end of the project. This is so we can maintain appropriate records of copyright and usage agreements.
This processing is based on your consent. This means that you have agreed that we can use your data for this specific purpose. You are able to withdraw your consent at any time. When you are asked for consent, you will also be given details of how to withdraw your consent.
In relation to surveys and interviews you may participate in
The data we process is provided by you when you participate in an interview or survey. It will usually include your name and contact details, as well as your views and opinions on certain subjects related to the RaNTrans project. With your permission, your contact details may be used by our team to contact you in relation to the interview or survey, and we may analyse your views, opinions and other responses as part of our project research.
With your permission, we may include your survey and interview responses or our analysis of them in publications that we prepare as part of the project. These publications will usually be available to the public, and may be referenced at project events such as workshops and conferences. We may, with your specific consent, attribute quotes to you in our reports, but otherwise we will make your data and opinions anonymous.
We may share audio recordings of interviews with an external transcription service for the purpose of creating a transcript of the interview. This third-party will follow their own data processing procedures as part of their contract with us, and will not use the data for any other purpose.
This processing is based on your consent. This means that you have agreed that we can use your data for this specific purpose. You are able to withdraw your consent up to two weeks after you have completed a survey or taken part in an interview. When you are asked for consent, you will also be given details of how to withdraw your consent, usually by contacting us.
How we hold your data
Data relating to your enquiries to us and our responses, and data relating to the other activities outlined above, is captured through a variety of methods and held within our IT systems, within electronic databases or other filing facilities kept by our team.
Where you give consent to be contacted with further information about the RaNTrans project, and where you give consent to be added to our mailing list, your contact details and information about your interests are held within our IT systems and our external mailing system.
In general, we will aim to retain your personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes of the processing outlined above, and any secondary purposes such as audit, regulatory and legal record-keeping requirements. The partnership will keep your data for a maximum of five years after the end of the project, due in June 2023. Our contractors will delete any personal data they have at the end of their contract with us.
What happens if you do not provide certain data
If you choose not to provide any of the data outlined above, we will not be able to engage with you in relation to the associated activities. This includes:
- We will not be able to contact you about the project or invite you to take part in workshops, surveys or interviews.
- We will not be able to use your media content in the project.
- We will not be able to include or take into account your experience, views and opinions in our research.
Use of automated decision-making or profiling
The data you provide is not processed by any automated means that involve either decisions being made about your data without any human involvement or a profile being created based on the evaluation of certain things about you.
Transfer of your data to countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA)
Data protection laws limit our ability to transfer personal data to countries outside the EEA (the countries which are subject to the EU data protection regime or very similar data protection laws). This is to help ensure that a consistent level of data protection applies to your data at all stages of processing, and that you are not exposed to additional privacy risks through the transfer of your data. Transfers of data outside the UK and the EEA are only permitted in certain circumstances.
We have given some information above about specific situations in which your personal data is or may be transferred outside the UK and the EEA. Aside from these situations there may be a transfer of your personal data outside the UK and the EEA in the following circumstances:
- Where we are using a cloud-based IT system to hold your data, such as for third-party transcription and mailing list services, and the data in the cloud is stored on servers located outside the UK and the EEA. In these circumstances we safeguard your data through undertaking appropriate checks on the levels of security offered by the cloud provider and/or third party, and entering into a contract with them which applies protections of the same type and level required by data protection laws within the UK and the EEA.
- Where you are based outside the UK and the EEA and we need to send you emails or other communications as part of a direct response to a communication received from you or for the performance of our contract with you. In these circumstances the data protection laws say that transfer is permitted with your specific consent.
Your rights and how to exercise them
Under the data protection laws you have a number of rights in relation to our processing of your personal data:
- Right to request access: you have the right to request access to the personal data that we hold about you, and to request information about how we process it.
- Right to request erasure: if you give us your consent to process your data, you have the right to revoke that consent and to have your personal data deleted from our systems and files.
- Right to rectification: you have the right to supplement or correct your personal data, and to have it deleted or blocked, whenever you wish.
- Right to transfer your data: where we are processing data that you have provided to us, on the basis of consent or as necessary for the performance of a contract between us, you have the right to ask us to provide your data in an appropriate format to you or to another controller.
- Right to object: you may object to the processing of your data and we must comply with any restrictions you place, unless there are justified grounds for the processing.
Most of these rights are subject to some exceptions or exemptions, depending on the purposes for which data is being processed.
If you have any questions or concerns about our processing of your data, or if you would like to exercise any of your rights as outlined above, please contact the Natural England data protection officer at: foi@naturalengland.org.uk
We will always aim to respond clearly and fully to any concerns you have about our processing and requests to exercise the rights set out above. We will share information when necessary to meet the statutory requirements of the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 and the Freedom of Information Act 2000.
If you have concerns about our data processing or consider that we have failed to comply with the data protection legislation then you have the right to make a complaint to the relevant supervisory authority, which in the UK is the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), and in France is the Commission Nationale de l’Informatique et des Libertés (CNIL). These websites also set out your rights in more detail, specific to the jurisdiction in question.
