PRIVACY NOTICE

This privacy notice lets you know what happens to your personal data when you
give it to the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH). It contains
important information about your privacy rights and how we collect and use your
personal data, so please read it carefully.


WHO WE ARE

The Institution of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH) is a not-for-profit
organisation and Registered Charity (No. 1096790 in England & Wales and Scotland
SC043254).

References to “IOSH”, “we, “us” and “our” refers to IOSH.

For the purposes of the relevant data protection legislation, the “data
controller” is the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health of The Grange,
Highfield Drive, Wigston, Leicestershire LE18 1NN.


WHAT TYPES OF PERSONAL DATA DO WE PROCESS?

We collect, use and are responsible for certain personal data about you. When we
do so, we are subject to the Data Protection Act 2018 and UK General Data
Protection Regulation (data protection laws).

The exact nature of the personal data we may process (in other words, collect
and use) about you will depend on which aspect of our work you relate to.
Personal data that we may process in connection with our work could, where
relevant, include:

DO WE COLLECT SENSITIVE PERSONAL DATA?

Certain categories of personal data are treated as a special category (for
example, information about your ethnicity and criminal convictions) to which
additional protections apply under data protection laws.

We will only process these special categories of personal data if there is a
valid reason for doing so and where data protection laws allow us to do so.

   registration platforms.
 * Where you communicate with us in any way.
 * You may be asked whether you have any unspent criminal convictions as part of
   your application to become a member. We will hold any information you give us
   relating to unspent criminal convictions until your application is
   determined.
 * From information generated when you use our advice, research, products and
   services.
 * Online or practical safety training assessments, including the feedback and
   analysis of your tutor(s), instructor(s) or examination bodies (if needed for

OTHER PURPOSES

We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it,
unless we consider that we need to use it for another lawful reason and that

why we are using your personal data or the legal basis on which we are using it,
please contact us. If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated
purpose, we will notify you and explain the legal basis that allows us to do so.
Please note that we may process your personal data without your knowledge or
consent where this is required or permitted by law.

Marketing


MARKETING

You will receive marketing communications from us from time to time.

We may also analyse your personal data to form a view of which product, services
and offers may be of interest to you, so that we can then send you relevant
marketing communications.

You can ask us to stop sending you marketing communications at any time by
following the opt-out links within any marketing communication sent to you or by
contacting us by email at: data.protection@iosh.com.

If you opt out of receiving marketing communications, you will still receive
service-related communications that are essential for administrative or customer
service purpose.


7. LAWFUL BASIS FOR PROCESSING YOUR DATA

Data protection laws require us to rely on one or more lawful bases to use your
personal information. We rely on the following legal bases.

 1. Where we have entered a contractual arrangement with you, which may often
    include where it is needed to provide you with your membership, advice,
    guidance, consultancy, training, qualifications, awards, products and
    customer services, for example:
    * managing products and services, awards and qualifications you or your
      employer hold with us, or an enquiry about them
    * updating your records
    * sharing your personal data with partners and service providers when you or
      your employer requests advice, guidance, training, awards, qualifications,
      products or services
    * all stages and activities relevant to providing safety advice or managing
      products or services, including enquiry, application, administration and
      management of accounts.
 2. Where it is in our legitimate interests to do so, provided our use is fair,
    balanced and does not unduly impact on your rights. Our legitimate interests
    generally include operating as a charitable entity in pursuit of our mission
    and, depending on the activity, include, for example:
    * managing your products and services, updating your records, providing
      advice, guidance or carrying out research or safety-related campaigns
    * to perform and/or test the performance of our products, services and
      internal processes
    * to comply with government and regulatory bodies
    * for management and audit of our operations, including accounting
    * to carry out monitoring and to keep records of our communications with you
      and our staff
    * for research and analysis and developing statistics
    * for marketing communications to help us offer you relevant health and
      safety advice, products, membership, services and training
    * to provide insight and analysis either as part of providing advice,
      products or services, helping us improve products or services, or to
      assess or to improve our operations
    * where we need to share your personal data with people or organisations to
      run our organisation
    * to publicise our activities to develop and grow our organisation, for
      example, we may use a photograph of you receiving a qualification from us
      on our website.
 3. To comply with our legal or regulatory obligations (for example, where we
    are obliged to share your personal data with regulatory bodies which govern
    our work and services).
 4. With your consent (for example, we may ask for your consent to receive
    communications by email) or, in some cases, your explicit consent (for
    example to collect special category data).
 5. In rare cases, to protect yours or another’s vital interests.
 6. Where there is a substantial public interest reason for us doing so, for
    example:
    * processing of your special categories of personal data, for example, about
      your health or ethnicity where relevant to health and safety research or
      campaigns.


WHEN DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and
to treat it in accordance with the data protection laws. We do not allow our
third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes

accordance with our instructions.

We may share information with the following third parties for the purposes

TO PROTECT THE RIGHTS, PROPERTY OR SAFETY OF OUR BUSINESS AND OTHER CUSTOMERS

We reserve the right to disclose or share your personal data to comply with any
legal or regulatory requirements, enforce our terms and conditions (or any other
agreement we enter with you), or to protect the rights, property or safety of
our business and other customers. This includes exchanging information with

IOSH uses third parties to take your registration details for events that we
participate in or run ourselves.

Research fund application


RESEARCH FUND APPLICATION

Information collected may be used by the research department or advisory panel,
its peer reviewers and internal committees/commissioning panels to administer
the grant application process; to identify peer reviewers for grant
applications, and to notify users about funding opportunities.

IOSH may pass on relevant data to internal committees and independent reviewers
to perform tasks on its behalf to help make the funding process operate
effectively. IOSH may also divulge information to its internal committees to
make funding decisions and improvements.

In consultation with you, and if you have given us your permission in advance,
IOSH may also wish to use some of the information you provide in your
application to promote the research fund and research activities sponsored by
IOSH. This could include articles on the research pages of the IOSH website,
news stories and joint press releases, interviews, webinars, case studies,
articles in IOSH magazine, or negotiated pieces in other media outlets.


THIRD PARTY WEBSITES

Our website may include links to third-party websites, plug-ins and
applications. Clicking on those links or enabling those connections may allow
third parties to collect or share data about you. We do not control these
third-party websites and are not responsible for their privacy statements. When
you leave our website, we encourage you to read the privacy notice of every
website that you visit.


INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS

Some of our external third parties may be based outside the United Kingdom (UK)
from time to time, so their processing of your personal data will involve a
transfer of data outside the UK.

Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the UK to our external third
parties or otherwise, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it
by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented.

 * We will only transfer your personal information to countries that have been
   deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the
   Information Commissioner’s Office, ie the European Union.
 * We use specific contracts approved by the Information Commissioner’s Office
   that give personal data the same protection that it receives in the UK,
   namely the International Data Transfer Agreement.

To find out further details of the safeguards we put in place, please contact
us.


WHERE WILL WE STORE YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

We are committed to keeping your personal data safe and secure and we have
appropriate and proportionate security policies and organisational and technical
measures in place to help protect your information.

Your personal data is only accessible by appropriately trained staff and
contractors, and stored on secure servers with features enacted to prevent
unauthorised access.

What should you do if your personal data changes?


WHAT SHOULD YOU DO IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA CHANGES?

You should tell us: members can update personal details via MyIOSH or call our
Customer Service Centre. Non-members need to call the Customer Service Centre
directly. Email communication preferences for members and non-members alike can
be managed via our preference centre, links to which are included in the footer
of all emails that we send you.

Do you have to provide your personal data to us?


DO YOU HAVE TO PROVIDE YOUR PERSONAL DATA TO US?

We may be unable to provide you with some advice, guidance, awards,
qualifications, consultancy, training, products or services if you do not
provide certain information to us.

Do we do any monitoring involving processing of your personal data?


DO WE DO ANY MONITORING INVOLVING PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

Monitoring means any: listening to, recording of, viewing of, intercepting of,
or taking and keeping records (as the case may be) of calls, email, text
messages, social media messages (and interactions in aggregated form), in person
(face to face) meetings and other communications.

We may monitor where permitted by law and we’ll do this where the law requires
it, or to comply with regulatory rules, to prevent or detect crime, in the
interests of protecting the security of our communications systems and
procedures and for quality control and staff training purposes. This information
may be shared for the purposes described above.

How long will we keep hold of your personal data?


HOW LONG WILL WE KEEP HOLD OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

We hold your personal data based on the following criteria:

 * in general, only for as long as it is required in connection with the
   purposes for which it was collected and/ or used – this will depend on the
   relevant activity
 * for as long as we have reasonable organisational needs, for example, managing
   our relationship with you and managing our charitable activities or research
 * for as long as we provide advice, products and/or services to you
 * retention periods in line with legal and regulatory requirements or guidance
   and in some cases for as long as necessary in relation to legal disputes.

Different retention periods apply for different types of personal data, for
example:

 * personal data provided in relation to your membership shall be retained for
   six years following the end of your membership
 * finance and transaction data in relation to credit card payments is retained
   for three years
 * any personal data provided through enquiries received by our helpline service
   is retained for one year after the end of the enquiry
 * personal data, including name and contact data provided to register and
   attend an event, shall be retained for one year after the date the event has
   taken place.

In some circumstances, we may anonymise your personal data (so that it can no
longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes in which
case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you. In
some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data, please see below for

Under data protection laws you have rights we need to make you aware of. The
rights available to you depend on our reason for processing your information.

 1. Right of access – You have the right to ask us for copies of your personal
    information.
 2. Right to rectification – You have the right to ask us to rectify information
    you think is inaccurate. You also have the right to ask us to complete
    information you think is incomplete.
 3. Erasure – You have the right to ask us to erase your personal information in
    certain circumstances. We may not always be able to comply with your request
    of erasure for specific legal reasons, which will be notified to you, if
    applicable, at the time of your request.
 4. Restriction of processing – You have the right to ask us to suspend the
    processing of your personal data in one of the following scenarios: if you
    want us to establish the data’s accuracy; where our use of the data is
    unlawful but you do not want us to erase it; where you need us to hold the
    data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise
    or defend legal claims; or you have objected to our use of your data but we
    need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.
 5. Data portability – This only applies to information you have given us. You
    have the right to ask that we transfer the information you gave us from one
    organisation to another or give it to you. The right only applies if we are
    processing information based on your consent, or in talks about entering a
    contract and the processing is automated.
 6. Right to object to processing – You have the right to object to processing
    if we can process your information because the process forms part of our
    public tasks or is in our legitimate interests. In some cases, we may
    demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your
    information which override your right to object.
 7. Right to withdraw consent – You have the right to withdraw consent at any
    time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. However,
    this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you
    withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to
    provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is
    the case at the time you withdraw your consent.

You can exercise any of the above rights by emailing us
at data.protection@iosh.com. We may need to request specific information from
you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your
personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security
measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no
right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information
in relation to your request to speed up our response.

You are not required to pay any charge for exercising your rights. We try to
respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally, it could take
us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made
a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.


COMPLAINTS

If you are not happy with the way your information is being handled, or with the
response received from us, you can seek resource through our internal complaints
procedure by writing to us at:

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s
Office if you are unhappy in any way with how we have treated your personal
information. We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns
before you approach the Information Commissioner’s Office, so please contact us
in the first instance.
