Data & Information Privacy Notice Summary
From 25th May 2018 the EU GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) becomes law. Most organizations operating within the EU that process personal information are required to be compliant with these regulations. The GDPR also applies to organizations outside the EU that process the personal information of individuals within the EU. (See section: ‘What constitutes Personal Data under GDPR’)
Organizations based in the EU that transfer personal data outside the EU are required to ensure that data is protected to GDPR standards either through legally binding agreements, binding corporate rules, GDPR compliant data protection clauses or approved code of conduct/certification mechanisms.
ICWRSA is absolutely committed to protecting your personal information and being transparent about what information we hold. We treat the security of this information extremely seriously, including helping you understand how and why we process this information and what your rights are related to this information.
This Privacy Notice explains the types of personal data the ICWRSA may collect about you when you contact us via email, phone, social media, write to us, register with us, request information or services from us or kindly donate to us. It also explains other reasons we may collect personal data directly, share data or receive data. It explains how we store and process that data, and ensure it is secure.
This Notice also describes how ICWRSA will make use of any personal data we handle in relation to individuals who contact us, subscribe, donate and other sources of personal data we may have been provided. It describes your data protection rights, including a right to object to or opt out of some of the processing we perform. More information about your rights, and how to exercise them, is set out in the “What rights do I have?” section.
This Privacy Notice may occasionally be updated. ICWRSA will communicate any significant changes or changes that may require your interaction on its website or by contacting you if you have agreed to that contact.

What Constitutes ‘personal data’ under GDPR
The GDPR applies to ‘personal data’ meaning any information relating to an identifiable person who can be directly or indirectly identified in particular by reference to an identifier.
This definition provides for a wide range of personal identifiers to constitute personal data, including name, identification number, location data or online identifier, reflecting changes in technology and the way organizations collect information about people.
The GDPR applies to both automated personal data and to manual filing systems where personal data are accessible according to specific criteria. This could include chronologically ordered sets of manual records containing personal data.
Personal data that has been pseudonymized – e.g. key-coded – can fall within the scope of the GDPR depending on how difficult it is to attribute the pseudonym to a particular individual.
