Data security

General information

The Guild keeps a membership register and has a related privacy policy (a document that defines the data controller, data processor, and the purpose of the collection of data). The Guild is the data controller of the membership register. The Guild may change the place where the personal data is stored, but the authority to process data must remain with the Guild even if the storage of data is outsourced.

GDPR update

Key principles:

  • the collected data must be necessary,
  • the data must be collected for specified, explicit, and legitimate purposes and not further processed in a manner that is incompatible with those purposes.

Data subjects (guild members) have the right to access their data. In the event of a data leak, the Guild has a duty to notify both the authorities and the member(s) concerned within 72 hours.
