Introduction

This policy covers the data collected by Richmond and Hillcroft Adult and Community College, how it is used, how it is protected, and the users’ ability to control the collection and use of their personal data.

The information the College collects

The College collects anonymous information about the users of our website for analysis purposes, and personal information from those users who complete an online contact form.

The information collected from users of the website is anonymous and used for tracking purposes to determine, for example, the number of pages visited in the session, the length of time spent on each page, and the frequency of visits to the website.

If a user completes the contact form, participates in a competition, express interest in a course or contacts the College by email or phone, any data coming from that exchange will be recorded and kept in our database.

The collected information can include your name, email, address and contact details.

How the College uses the collected information?

The information collected anonymously for the purposes of analysis enables the college to improve the user experience and better understand its users. The information we collect is used to generate reports, to make the site more user-friendly and to determine which content is most appealing for our users.

Will the College contact you?

By completing any of the contact forms and submitting your information, by given your contact information you have given the college permission to contact you about any information we think you might be interested in, such as courses, newsletters, new services, or training events.

Sharing your information

We will not sell your information, trade it with any other company, or use it for any other purpose other than to communicate to you about the College's own service offerings, or closely related events or opportunities we would reasonably consider you to have an interest in, based on your initial or any subsequent requests.

How long will we keep your data?

We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as is necessary for the relevant activity, or as long as is set out in any relevant contract you hold with the College. It will keep your data in the database unless you request otherwise.

Can you make a request for the data the College holds about you?

If you would like to know what information the College holds about you, you can make a request to info@rhacc.ac.uk to have the information shared with you.
