Privacy Policy
We will treat your personal details in strict compliance with the national Data Protection Acts.
The following statement explains our policy regarding the personal information we collect about you if you sign the petition.
1. Introduction
In order to pledge your support on our website you are required to give us some personal information about yourself. By entering your details in the fields requested, you enable the sponsors of the petition and their service provider, to show that you have pledged your support.
2. Use and storage of your personal information
When you pledge your support by signing the online petition, we have legal obligations towards you in the way we use your data. We must collect the information fairly, that is, we must explain how we will use it and tell you if we want to pass the information on to anyone else.
The only data we collect from you is voluntary. These pieces of information, as supplied to us by you, will - if you confirm - be able to be viewed on the petition website.
Once collected, the petition will be presented to National Parliaments and the European Commission in an attempt to persuade it to act according to our claims. We will disclose your data only to the National Parliaments and the European Commission. Your data will not be presented to any other organisation or individual.
Your information will be disclosed where we are obliged or permitted by law.
If you post or send offensive, inappropriate or objectionable content anywhere on the petition site or otherwise engage in any disruptive behaviour on the petition site, we can use whatever information is available to it about you to stop such behaviour. This may involve informing relevant third parties such as your employer and law enforcement agencies about the content and your behaviour.
We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as the petition is maintained.
We will ensure that all personal information supplied is held securely, in accordance with the national Data Protection Acts.
We will not contact you for promotional or other purposes.
