Your Privacy

The Network Partnership takes your security and privacy very seriously and our web site has been designed with this in mind.

Any  data you submit to us is transmitted securely. The data is encrypted, making it virtually impossible to read without a 'key' to decipher it, before being stored in a secure area. This secure area can only be accessed by authorised persons.

The Data Protection Act

The Data Protection Act 1998 (see http://www.dataprotection.gov.uk/ for more information) gives  certain rights as it defines the rules for processing  information. It also states that those who record and process information, such as the Network Partnership, must be open and honest in how the information is used. It describes how the Network Partnership can process information by listing eight principles of good information handling. The principles state that data must be:

• Processed fairly and lawfully
• Obtained for limited purposes
• Adequate, relevant and not excessive
• Accurate and kept up to date
• Not kept for longer than is necessary
• Processed in accordance with your rights
• Kept Secure
• Not transferred to countries without adequate levels of protection

The Act also allows you to find out what information the Network Partnership holds,  in return for a small fee. This is known as a "subject access request." If you wish to know what information the Network Partnership holds about you, please write to the registered office, Network Partnership Ltd, 13 The Square, Wolverhampton Road, Codsall, South Staffs WV8 1PT. If any information is inaccurate or incorrect, please inform the Network Partnership and we will correct it.

The Network Partnership provides training for our partners and staff and emphasises the need to keep data confidential. We also regularly review our security procedures.
