Data Protection
Rockley is a privacy conscious organisation and is strongly committed to your right to privacy. That is why we have drafted a Privacy and Data Protection Statement, which follows guidelines set out in the Data Protection Act 1998.

The Data Protection Act 1998
 set rules for processing personal information and applies to structured paper records as well as data held on computers. With the Freedom of Information Act 2000 which came into force on 1 January 2005, the provisions of the Data Protection Act 1998 will apply to all records, including those structured other than by reference to the data subject and completely unstructured files. 

Rockley’s Use and Storage of Data 
The Data Protection Act states that those who record and process personal information must be open about how the information is used and must follow the eight principles of ‘good information handling’.

These principles state that data must be: 
Fairly and lawfully processed 
Processed for limited purposes 
Adequate, relevant and not excessive 
Accurate 
Not kept for longer than is necessary 
Processed in line with your rights 
Secure, and Personal data will not be transferred outside the European Economic Area unless that country provides an adequate level of protection. 

If you believe in any way that Rockley is not processing your personal data in accordance with these principles, please email us at team@rockley.org.
