This may include health-related interests, which could constitute special category personal data.

Where we process health information, we do so only where UK GDPR permits this, including with your explicit consent where required.

We rely on your consent to process information submitted through a workshop registration form. Where the information includes health-related or other special category personal data, we rely on your explicit consent. You may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us, although this will not affect processing that took place before withdrawal.

Where workshops are delivered in partnership with another organisation, we may share anonymised and combined findings about levels of interest, preferred topics, locations and times. We will not share your name, email address or identifiable responses with the participating organisation without  your permission, unless required by law.

How we protect your information
