Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Fruit Storm College processes personal data in connection with its website and related interactions.
This section introduces how personal information, user rights, and support pathways are addressed in the document below.
GDPR Overview
Where the GDPR applies, we process personal data on a lawful basis such as consent, legitimate interests, performance of a contract, or compliance with legal obligations, as relevant to the specific activity.
Because Fruit Storm College is accessible to users in the European Economic Area, GDPR rules apply where the processing falls within their scope.
GDPR Rights
Where the GDPR applies, users may have the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, and data portability, and may withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
Your Rights
Depending on the circumstances, users may have rights to access their data, correct inaccurate information, request deletion, object to certain processing, and request restriction or portability where applicable. Some requests may be limited by legal obligations or the need to protect the rights of others.
How to Make a Request
To exercise a privacy right, users should submit a clear request using the contact details in this policy and include enough information to identify the relevant data and the right being exercised. We may ask for additional information to verify identity or to understand the request before responding.
Retention of Data
We keep personal data only for as long as needed for the purpose for which it was collected, to meet legal, accounting, or security obligations, or to resolve disputes. When data is no longer required, we delete it or anonymize it where appropriate.
Policy Updates
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or the operation of the site. The revised version will be indicated by its effective date, and continued use of the site after publication means the updated policy applies.
Contact Information
Data We Collect
We may process identification details, contact details, message content, technical data such as device and browser information, usage data, and cookie-related identifiers. If a user chooses to comment, subscribe, or send a message, we also process the information included in that interaction.
Sources of Data
We receive data directly from users when they complete forms, send messages, or otherwise interact with the site. We also collect certain technical and usage data automatically through the operation of the website, including log data and cookie-based information where enabled.
Types of Cookies
We may use essential cookies to support basic site functions, preference cookies to remember settings, and analytics cookies to understand how the site is used. Cookies may be session-based or persistent, depending on their purpose and duration.
Cookie Controls
Users may block or delete cookies through their browser settings. Where the site provides a cookie notice or preference tool, users can use it to manage non-essential cookies. Disabling some cookies may affect site functionality.
Purposes of Processing
We use personal data to operate and maintain the website, respond to messages, manage comments or subscriptions where offered, monitor performance and security, remember user preferences, analyze site usage, and comply with legal obligations. We may also use data to handle disputes, enforce site terms, and support administrative recordkeeping.
Service Providers
We may share personal data with hosting, maintenance, analytics, security, and communication service providers that support the operation of the website. These parties act on our instructions where they process data on our behalf, or they act as separate controllers where their own services require it.
Legal Disclosure
We may disclose personal data when required by law, regulation, court order, or a lawful request from a public authority. We may also share information where necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims, or to protect the security and integrity of the site.
