What Are Cookies

As is common practice with almost all professional websites this site uses cookies, which are tiny files that are downloaded to your computer, to improve your experience. This page describes what information they gather, how we use it and why we sometimes need to store these cookies.

 


 

How We Use Cookies

There are two broad categories of cookies:

  • First party cookies, served directly by us to your computer or mobile device. They are used only by us to recognise your computer or mobile device when it revisits our Platforms.
  • Third party cookies, which are served by a third party service provider on our Platforms, and can be used by the service provider to recognise your computer or mobile device when it visits other platforms. Third party cookies are most commonly used for platform analytics or advertising purposes.

As most of the online services, our website uses first-party and third-party cookies for a number of purposes. 

Some cookies are necessary for the website to function in the right way, and they do not collect any of your personally identifiable data. The other cookies used on our websites are used mainly for understanding how the website performs, how you interact with our website, keeping our services secure, providing advertisements that are relevant to you, and all in all providing you with a better and improved user experience and helping to speed up your future interactions with our website.

We will retain your information for the period necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this policy and as otherwise needed to comply with applicable law and internal company policies.

Your Rights

You have the right to request:

  • Access to the personal data we hold about you, free of charge in most cases.
  • The correction of your personal data when incorrect, out of date or incomplete.
  • That we stop using your personal data for direct marketing (either through specific channels, or all channels).
  • That we stop any consent-based processing of your personal data after you withdraw that consent.
  • You can contact us to request to exercise these rights at any time.
  • If we choose not to action your request we will explain to you the reasons for our refusal. 

Whenever you have given us your consent to use your personal data, you have the right to change your mind at any time and withdraw that consent. You may withdraw your consent partially, restricting your consent to certain usage of data.

In cases where we are processing your personal data on the basis of our legitimate interest, you can ask us to stop for reasons connected to your individual situation. We must then do so unless we believe we have a legitimate overriding reason to continue processing your personal data.

We will only use and store your information for as long as it is required for the purposes it was collected for. How long it will be stored for depends on the information in question, what it is being used for and, sometimes, legal requirements.

If you wish to raise a complaint on how we have handled your personal data, you can contact our Data Protection Officer who will investigate the matter.  You can contact this individual by email at dataprotection@stgeorgesschool.com.

If you believe we are processing your personal data not in accordance with the law you can complain to the relevant regional authority, the Landesdatenbeauftragter für Datenschutz und Informationsfreiheit Nordrhein-Westfalen.  Additionally, if you live within the EU but outside of North-Rhine-Westphalia, you can instead complain to the data protection authority responsible for your place of residence.
