Data Protection Policy
General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 & Data Protection Act 2018
The new law applies to data that can identify a person – personal data.
Full Policy Wording
HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 is committed to conducting its business in accordance with all applicable Data Protection laws and regulations and in line with the highest standards of ethical conduct. The General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) replaces the Data Protection Act (1998) in law from the 25th May 2018. The new legislation will be implemented in the UK by way of the Data Protection Act 2018 (the Act.) This policy will be updated to reflect these changes.
The purpose of this Policy is to outline the roles and responsibilities that every current employee, enrolled, prospective or former trainee and all data processors must comply with to ensure they abide by the law by ensuring the confidentiality, integrity and security of any personal data held or shared by HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17, whatever the medium.
This policy forms a core part of HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17’s Data Protection Framework, which has been designed to reduce privacy risk and help HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 implement a Personal Information Management System to ensure ongoing compliance with Data Protection Law and embed data protection best practice throughout the institution.
The GDPR and the Data Protection Act (2018) contain familiar elements from the 1998 legislation such as the Data Protection Principles of Good Practice and specific rights for individuals with regards to how their personal data is processed. However, the GDPR imposes additional requirements, which are reflected in the new legislation.
Like the 1998 Act, the 2018 Act applies to ‘personal data’. Personal data is any information (including opinions and intentions) which relates directly or indirectly to an identified or identifiable living person. Some types of data are particularly sensitive. Sensitive data includes information such as genetic, biometric or medical/health data, information concerning race, sexual orientation religious or political beliefs and trade union membership. This type of data is special category data and must be treated particularly carefully.
Under the 2018 Act, personal data and special category data are subject to a number of new legal safeguards and other regulations, which impose restrictions on how organisations may process personal data within their organisation. An organisation that handles personal data and makes decisions about its use is a Data Controller. As a Data Controller, HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 is responsible for ensuring compliance with the Data Protection requirements outlined in this Policy. Non-compliance may expose HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 to complaints, regulatory action, fines and/or reputational damage.
HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 is fully committed to ensuring continued and effective implementation of this Policy, and expects all HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 employees, trainees, associates third parties and processors to share in this commitment. Any breach of this Policy is taken seriously and may result in disciplinary action or business sanction.
For a full list of definitions, please see Appendix A.
This policy applies to any individual or organisation that processes personal data for or on behalf of HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 or business affiliated to HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 activities. Processing of personal data includes but is not limited to the identification, collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by any means, restriction, erasure or destruction of personal data.
This policy applies to all processing of personal data in electronic form (including electronic mail and documents created with word processing software) or where it is held in manual files that are structured in a way that allows ready access to information about individuals.
This policy is designed to establish a worldwide baseline standard for the processing and protection of personal data by all HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 entities. Where national law imposes a requirement which is stricter than imposed by this Policy, the requirements in national law must be followed. Where national law imposes a requirement that is not addressed in this Policy, the relevant national law must be adhered to.
If there are conflicting requirements in this policy and national law, please consult with Governance and Legal Services for guidance.

Every person associated with HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 who processes or uses any personal data must abide by these Principles at all times. In order to ensure that this happens, HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 has developed this Data Protection Policy.
The Act mandates that the data controller will be responsible for ensuring that personal and special category data are collected, stored and processed fairly, for deciding which types of information will be processed and the reason for the Processing. The legal responsibility of data controller rests with HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 Higher Education Corporation, and the Board of Governors, as HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17’s governing body, is ultimately responsible for implementation.
The Board of Governors has allocated the responsibility for the protection of personal data at Senior Management level to a Data Protection Officer (DPO) who is authorised to act independently and has overall responsibility for ensuring ongoing compliance with HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17’s data protection obligations. The role of the DPO is autonomous and the person that fulfils this role within HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 reports to the highest level of management within the organisation. The DPO is also the first point of contact for Supervisory Authorities and for individuals whose data is processed.
Each Senior Manager is responsible for:
Where processing of personal data will involve new technology or high-risk activities such as sensitive research a Data Privacy Impact Assessment may need to be conducted.

A response to each request will be provided within 30 days of the receipt of the written request from the Data Subject. Appropriate verification must confirm that the requestor is the Data Subject or their authorised legal representative. Data Subjects shall have the right to require HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 to correct or supplement erroneous, misleading, outdated, or incomplete personal data. If HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 cannot respond fully to the request within 30 days, the DPO shall provide the following information to the Data Subject or their authorised legal representative within the specified time:
Where HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 act as a data controller, we will provide information to Data Subjects about how HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 processes personal data and our purposes for processing personal data.

If HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 or a known third party processes personal data for one of these purposes, then it may apply an exception to the processing rules outlined in this Policy but only to the extent that not doing so would be likely to prejudice an investigation. If any HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 employee receives a request from a court or any regulatory or law enforcement authority for information relating to personal data held by HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17, the request must be directed to the Data Protection Officer who will provide comprehensive guidance and assistance.
All staff and trainees are responsible for ensuring that:
Where personal information exists in a manual form, it should be kept in a locked filing cabinet or locked drawer. Where personal information is held in an electronic form, the Accounting Officer is responsible for ensuring that appropriate technical and organisational measures are taken within the school, service or unit to ensure against unauthorised or unlawful processing of personal data and against accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, such data.
Examples of such measures include encryption, both at rest and in transit, anonymization and pseudonymising. The Accounting officer and / Programme manager is responsible for promoting data protection of best practice within their teams and keeping the DPO informed of changes in the collection, use, and security measures used for personal data within the school, service or unit.
Information that is already in the public domain is exempt from the Data Protection legislation in some cases.

Where the third party is deemed to be a Data Controller, HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 will enter into, in cooperation with the DPO, an appropriate agreement with the third party to clarify each party’s responsibilities in respect to the personal data transferred.
Where the third party is deemed to be a Data Processor, HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 will enter into, in cooperation with the DPO, an adequate processing agreement with the Data Processor. The agreement will require the Data Processor to protect the personal data from further disclosure and to only process personal data in compliance with HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 instructions. All processing of personal data by a Data Processor acting on behalf of HENRY MAYNARD TRAINING E17 must be documented and new processing activities that involve personal data or special category data should be notified to the DPO who will ensure that the relevant contractual clauses are made available before processing commences.
Data Subjects with a complaint about the processing of their personal data should put forward the matter in writing to the Accounting officer. An investigation of the complaint will be carried out to the extent that is appropriate based on the merits of the specific case. The DPO or a nominated representative will inform the Data Subject of the progress and the outcome of the complaint within a reasonable period.
