The VSI Alliance are committed to providing professional support and development services to local Voluntary and Community Sector (VCS) organisations in the areas we work. To be able to do this, we need to make sure the data we hold on the organisations we support is current, robust and regularly updated.
In light of the new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) that came into force in May 2018, we are reviewing all the currently held data from all the VSI Alliance partners to ensure our delivery is unified and set up for appropriate data sharing. Although the GDPR is primarily around personal data, we are using this as an opportunity to update all the data we hold whether personal or organisational.
With your permission, the information you provide in this database form will be securely stored and used for the following purposes:
1. For the distribution of updates, newsletter, briefing papers, consultations, events, news and other information by the VSI Alliance and partner/member organisations, to the main organisation's contact details.
2. For inclusion, where relevant, in the VSI Alliance publicity materials (online and hard copy) and the VSI Alliance’s organisational monitoring and reports to funders.
3. To support the work of the VSI Alliance in maintaining contact with your organisation and allowing referrals to your organisation as appropriate.
