Who We Are
This website is run for Haltwhistle & District Angling Association. This policy explains how personal information submitted through the website is used.
Information We Collect
Depending on the form you use, we may collect your name, email address, telephone number, address, requested fishing dates, number of rods, application details, fishing experience, enquiry details and catch-return information.
Catch-return information may include dates, species, where fish were caught, weights, whether fish were killed or released, and any comments you choose to provide.
Relevant forms may also use technical anti-spam information to help protect the website and its forms from automated submissions.
How We Use Your Information
We use personal information to answer enquiries, deal with day fishing requests, manage membership and visitor applications, process catch returns, administer the association and keep website forms secure.
Our usual lawful basis is the legitimate interest of running the association and responding to requests. In some cases we may also use information to take steps you have asked for before membership or visitor arrangements are made, or to meet legal and administrative duties.
Form Protection
Turnstile is used on relevant forms to help check that a submission is made by a person rather than automated spam. This protection is used for security and form reliability, not for advertising.
Sharing Your Information
We only share personal information where needed to deal with your enquiry, application, booking request or catch return, or where required for association administration or legal obligations.
We do not sell personal information and we do not use it for advertising.
How Long We Keep Information
We keep information only for as long as needed for association administration, dealing with enquiries and applications, keeping appropriate records, meeting legal duties and handling any disputes.
Your Rights
You can ask to see the personal information we hold about you. You can also ask us to correct it, delete it, restrict how we use it or object to how we use it. Some rights depend on the reason we hold the information.
You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office if you are unhappy with how your personal information has been handled.
