This privacy policy sets out how Nib Shared Vision uses and protects any information that you give us when you use this website. Nib Shared Vision is committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected. Should we ask you to provide certain information by which you can be identified when using this website, then you can be assured that it will only be used in accordance with this privacy statement. Nib Shared Vision may change this policy from time to time by updating this page. This policy is effective from 1st January 2020.
Nib Shared Vision is committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected by always complying with the Data Protection Act 2018 and adhering to the principles of the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR).
We always have your best interests at heart and your personal information will not be retained by Nib Shared Vision for longer than necessary in relation to the purposes for which it was originally collected, or for which it was further processed.
To protect yourself when sending us personal information, please ensure that you use devices running supported operating systems that incorporate some form of malware protection. Only connect your devices to networks that you trust.
We will not rent or sell your personal information to other organisations for use by them in any way, including in their own direct marketing activities.
We may disclose your personal information to third parties if we're legally obliged to; or in order to enforce or apply our terms of use for this website or other agreements; or to protect the rights, property or safety of Nib Shared Vision. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organisations for the purposes of fraud detection and protection, or with local authorities for the purposes of the provision of health or social care.
Sometimes we cannot keep information confidential as we need to ensure all children, young people and vulnerable adults are safe. This means that if you tell us anything about yourself or another person being at risk of suffering significant harm, we may need to tell someone who can help (such as a social worker, police officer or teacher). Sometimes a court might order us to share information and you might ask us to share information on your behalf. The partners of Nib Shared Vision are experienced safeguarding professionals who will always act to protect children and vulnerable adults in line with the law and best practice.
If your local authority or another agency, such as your school or the police, have asked us to work with you we will need to gain information from them about you and share information with them. We will need to let them know the outcome of our work. We will tell you who we are sharing your information with and why, unless it is a concern as mentioned above and we do not think it is safe to do so.
Sometimes we might want to tell a carer, social worker or other appropriate person about how things are going while you are working with us, but we will always check this out with you first, unless we think it is not safe to do so.
We may send promotional information about new products, special offers or other information which we think you may find interesting. We will only make contact for these purposes when we have been given permission to do so.
We are committed to ensuring that your information is secure. In order to prevent unauthorised access or disclosure, we have put in place suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.
