Your rights

The General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR for short, is one of the biggest changes to data privacy in recent years. Its purpose is to put you in control of how your information is collected and used by organisations.

That means you have the right to know exactly for what purpose your information is used, how it’s looked after and how you can change or remove that information.

If you have any queries about how we collect and use your information, which we haven’t already answered on this page, please feel free to get in touch at info@selalliance.org.uk.

If you’d like to know more about your rights, the Information Commissioner’s website (www.ico.org.uk)  is a good source of general information.
