WHO WE ARE

Our website address is: https://the-isp.org.

WHAT PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT AND WHY WE COLLECT IT

MEDIA

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

CONTACT FORMS

We collect and store IP addresses from users who use forms on the site. This is used so we can identify where a user is based, as we are a U.K. based organisation.

If you tick the “I have read the Privacy Policy and grant consent to use my data” checkbox on the contact form, you give us permission to keep and store your name, email address and phone number for future use. Leaving the box unticked will mean your details will be deleted from our records after 30 days. We do not and will never sell or share your details with any third parties unless you have given your express permission.

COOKIES

If you have an account and you log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

EMBEDDED CONTENT FROM OTHER WEBSITES

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

HOW LONG WE RETAIN YOUR DATA

If you fill in a form, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely if you tick the “I have read the Privacy Policy and grant consent to use my data” checkbox. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue. Leaving the box unticked will mean your details will be deleted from our records after 30 days.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

WHAT RIGHTS YOU HAVE OVER YOUR DATA

If you have an account on this site, or have filled in a form, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

WHERE WE SEND YOUR DATA

Visitor form submissions may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

WHAT WE COLLECT AND STORE

If you create an account, we will store your name, address, email and phone number, which will be used to populate the your profile for future visits.

We generally store information about you for as long as we need the information for the purposes for which we collect and use it, and we are not legally required to continue to keep it.

WHO ON OUR TEAM HAS ACCESS

Members of our team have access to the information you provide us. For example, Administrators can access:

  • User information like your name, email address, and company name information.
