The Society of Bristol Business Women is committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected. Nicki Mors acts as Data Controller and Committee members may be Processors for the Society. This policy explains how we use the information we collect about you.

Mailing List

We operate an email mailing list, via our email broadcasting provider which is Mailchimp. This is our primary way of informing subscribers (members) about future Society of Bristol Business Women events. Users are added to the list when they have given their explicit consent. Subscribers can unsubscribe at any time through a service as detailed in the footer of all sent marketing messages, or by contacting one of the committee and requesting removal from the list. The type and content of marketing messages subscribers receive is clearly outlined at the point of subscription.

We will not sell, distribute or lease your personal information to third parties.

Email marketing messages may contain tracking beacons / tracked clickable links or similar server technologies in order to track subscriber activity within email marketing messages. Where used, such marketing messages may record a range of subscriber data relating to engagement, geographic, demographics and already stored subscriber data.

Access to member information is strictly controlled. The Mailchimp account can only be accessed by the Society’s committee members tasked with communicating with our members. It is only made visible to committee members who have a reason to work with it.

Event details

We will only collect and retain basic, relevant and essential data for the purposes of communicating with members about events they have registered for and for taking payment for tickets. All data collected will be retained against individual events within the events system and managed in accordance with Eventbrite’s terms and conditions and privacy policy.

Your data is always held securely. Access to customer information is strictly controlled and the Eventbrite account can only be accessed by the Society’s committee members for the purpose of administering each event. It is only made visible to committee members who have a reason to work with it.
