Michael Streete Foundation Privacy Notice.
This Privacy Notice sets out the basis on which any personal data we collect from you, or that you provide to us, will be processed by us.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (Regulation (EU) 2016/679) replaces the Data
Protection Regulation (Directive 95/46/EC). The Regulation aims to enhance privacy rights for individuals and providing a strict framework within which commercial organisations can legally operate.
Even though the UK has expressed its intention to leave the EU, the Government intends for the GDPR
to continue in UK law post Brexit and has also introduced a Data Protection Bill to replace the current Data Protection Act in due course.
Please read the following carefully to understand our views and practices regarding your personal
data and how we will treat it.
Please note that Michael Streete Foundation may amend this policy from time to time and the updated version will be available on our company website.
