F) Uses and Processing

We acknowledge that processing may only be carried out where a lawful basis for that processing exists and we have assigned a lawful basis against each processing activity. Here are some examples:

We may use information you have provided us to send you emails about latest news, events and topics we think you may be interested in, news from local businesses and community announcements. To receive these you will have needed to opt in to receive these communications and at any time you can also opt out. We will also occasionally ask you to update these preferences to make sure you’re getting only the information you want.

We will try to comply with your opt out request as soon as reasonably practicable. Please also note that if you do opt-out of receiving newsletter emails from us, we may still send you messages for administrative or other purposes and you cannot opt-out from receiving those messages.

When someone visits our website we use a third party service, Google Analytics, to collect standard internet log information and details of visitor behaviour patterns. We do this to find out things such as the number of visitors to the various parts of the site. This information is only processed in a way which does not identify anyone. We do not make, and do not allow Google to make, any attempt to find out the identities of those visiting our website.

If you are a member of the Wandsworth Bridge Road Association team we will also use your data for any of our organisation responsibilities.

We will never give or sell your data to anyone else.
