5. The Website Communities


5.1. In order to participate in and contribute to selected website communities you may be required to enquire through the website. Any personal information supplied to the website as part of this process and/or any other interaction with the website will be collected, stored and used in accordance with The 6th’s website privacy statement.
 

5.2. The Use of Personal Data: As protecting privacy is very important to The 6th, anyone using the website must also ensure that the privacy of others is protected throughout. Therefore, any personal information (Personal Data) about another accessed, downloaded or obtained via the The 6th’s website must be handled in compliance with the Data Protection Act. For more information about the rules please see http://www.ico.gov.uk/. In summary, Personal Data is any information by which a person can be identified  e.g. name, address (including email address), telephone number or particular role within scouting etc and when handling such data:
(a) YOU MUST only obtain and use it for the legitimate scouting purpose as required and authorised by your role; 
(b) YOU MUST only retain it for the legitimate scouting purpose as required and authorised by your role and, where retention is justified, must ensure that it is kept accurate, up-to-date and in a secure manner so as to prevent accidental loss, theft or unauthorised access by others;
(c) YOU MUST only retain it for as long as legitimately required and thereafter delete or destroy it safely and securely;
(d) YOU MUST NOT share it with any other party unless you have the person’s express consent to do so – preferably in writing wherever possible. This applies to sharing such data with any external party as well as within scouting itself e.g. emails sent to more than one recipient should, as a rule, be ‘blind copied’ (Bcc) so that the recipients do not receive details of each other’s email addresses.
(e) YOU MUST NOT, in any event, send it outside of the European Economic Association (EEA) unless you are sure that the country you are sending it operates under Data Protection laws akin to the UK and you have received assurance from them that the data will remain protected by them.
