8. What are your rights?
If, at any point, you believe the information we hold about you is incorrect, you can request to see the information and have it corrected or deleted, which we will do.
If you wish to complain about how we have handled your personal data, you can contact us to have the matter investigated – info@fcleytonstone.com

You can ask for your personal information to be deleted from our records. In many cases we would propose to suppress further communications with you, rather than delete your information entirely.

In the event that you ask us to stop sending you our newsletter and occasional updates about our work, we will keep your name and/or e-mail address on our internal suppression list to ensure that you are not contacted in this way again.
10. What legal ground do we rely on to process your personal information?
We have four lawful grounds for processing your personal information:
- on the basis of a person’s consent
We will ask for your consent to use personal information to send you any electronic communications such as newsletters and marketing emails, and if you ever share sensitive personal information with us. - on the basis of a contractual relationship
The vast majority of our interactions with our players and activity participants are voluntary and not contractual. However, sometimes it will be necessary to process personal information so that we can enter contractual relationships with people. For example, if you apply for employment or to volunteer with us. - on the basis of legal obligations
Sometimes we will be obliged to process your personal information due to legal obligations which are binding on us. We will only ever do so when strictly necessary. - on the basis of legitimate interests
Applicable law allows personal information to be collected and used if it is reasonably necessary for our legitimate activities as a football team (as long as its use is fair, balanced and does not unduly impact individuals’ rights).
We will rely on this ground to process your personal data when it is not practical or appropriate to ask for consent, for example if you attend one of our events or activities.
11. How you can amend the information we hold about you or change how we contact you
You can contact us at any time by email, or submit a letter to your coach to change or update your details.
12. Contact
