How long we keep your data for:

               We will only keep your information for as long as we need it to provide you with the services or
               information you have required, to administer your relationship with us, to comply with the law,
               or  to  ensure we do  not  communicate with  people  that  have asked  us  not to.  When  we no
               longer need this information we will dispose of it securely.


               Where we store your personal data

               Your information may be kept on a secured computer. The data may be transferred to, and
               stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area ("EEA"). It may also be processed
               by persons operating outside the EEA. If we do send your personal data outside the EEA we will
               ensure that  the recipient  implements appropriate  measures  to protect  your information.  By
               submitting your details you agree to this transfer.

               All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers.

               The internet is not completely secure. We will do our best to protect your personal data, but we
               cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our site; any transmission is at your
               own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security
               features to try to prevent unauthorised access.


               Who has access to your information?

               We allow our staff at Birmingham College to access and use your information for the purposes
               for which you have provided it to us (such as administering the services you have subscribed
               to). Any third party agencies are carefully selected and required to demonstrate compliance to
               General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the UK Data Protection Act (DPA).

               We will  only  share your  information  with  third parties  where  it  is  directly relevant  to the
               services you have requested.
