The information we require to enable us to properly provide facilities for hire is collected on one document – the Kemnay Village Hall Booking Form. Our lawful basis for collecting this information is to enable a contract to be drawn up between the hirer and us (the supplier), as requested by the hirer.

How long do we keep this information? We keep personal data for 2 years from the date of the last booking made. We keep information on or accounting system for a period of 7 years to satisfy external accounting requirements.
b. Information held about trustees some of which is required to be submitted to OSCR in the Annual Return.
Full contact and certain personal details of all current trustees are held for the purposes of good administration and also to enable the hall secretary to complete the annual return to OSCR, which is required by law. All data held for a trustee is deleted from the village hall systems and the OSCR database when a trustee stands down.
c. Details about events and associated points of contact on website calendars, facebook and other media outlets.
Any data in this category is only published with the full approval of the event sponsor, organiser or point of contact whose consent would therefore be deemed to have been given.
