Women+ in Geospatial CIC – Data protection statement

Preface

The leadership team of the Women+ in Geospatial CIC is responsible for maintaining and managing membership data and is required to take all necessary steps and measures to ensure that personal data is protected.

Data Protection Declaration

Upon agreeing to sign-up to the Women+ in Geospatial network, the following personal data will be collected:
Name and surname, E-mail address, gender, country and state of residence, career level, how the person heard about the network and the person’s motivation to be part of the network. A person can choose whether to be added to the network’s mailing list and / or the network’s Slack channel.

The data is saved on a cloud server (Google Drive). Email addresses are added to a Google groups mailing list (womeningeospatial@googlegroups.com) and if indicated, an invitation to join the network’s slack channel is sent to the person’s email address.

The account (womeningeospatial@gmail.com) belonging to the cloud server is currently administered by Julia Wagemann, Sabrina Szeto and Olive Powell. You can contact the administrators via the following email: info@womeningeospatial.org.

The other information is only processed internally, and only in cases where the information is of use to advancing the purpose and goals of the network and there is no reason to believe that the individuals concerned have a legitimate interest in excluding the processing and/or use of their data.

The network solely intends to use the personal data collected for purpose stated at the time of data collection. The network does not have a nominated person responsible for data privacy as currently less than ten individuals are involved in processing personal data.

There is a legitimate right to receive the personal data stored as well as to correct or delete them. The data processing can be limited and the right of objection can be executed.

Deletion of Data

A person can request to delete all personal data stored in the network’s records, by sending an email to info@womeningeospatial.org
