Contractors and commissioners privacy policy

St Mungo’s is committed to keeping your data safe. We’re also committed to being up front and honest about what information we’re collecting, why we do this, and how we use it. If we work with you on an official capacity, we may have retained your details under the legal basis of legitimate interest.

These details will never be sold, shared or used for fundraising or marketing purposes, but only so that we can make contact regarding our working relationship.

If you request we remove your details, we will of course do so in a timely fashion.

Your rights

Under certain circumstances, by law you have the right to:

- Request access to your personal information (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal information we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.

- Request correction of the personal information that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate information we hold about you corrected.

- Request erasure of your personal information. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal information where there is no good reason for us to continue to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal information where you have exercised your right to object to processing (see below).

- Object to processing of your personal information where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal information for direct marketing purposes.

- Request the restriction of processing of your personal information. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of personal information about you, for example if you want us to establish its accuracy or the reason for processing it.
- Request the transfer of your personal information to another party.
