Introduction

North Offaly CoderDojo, part of the CoderDojo movement of free coding clubs, currently meeting online as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic (“we”, “us” or “our”) is committed to protecting and respecting your privacy.

We organise events to enable young people to learn coding, and we may also advertise similar events organised and/or hosted by other Dojos (“services”).

This Privacy Policy sets out the basis on which the personal data collected from you, or that you provide to us, will be processed by us in relation to the Services.

Please read the following document carefully to understand how we will use your personal data. For the purpose of the General Data Protection Regulation and the Data Protection Acts 1988-2018, we are the controller of personal data.

The categories and source of personal data we process, and our purposes for doing so

We process the following categories of personal data for the following purposes:

– Event Registrations: Information that you provide to us when registering to attend an event organised by us (“Event”) includes your name, email address, your child’s name and age (“Event Registration Information”). You may also provide us with your child’s gender indirectly by registering to attend a female-only Event, and we store this data in line with our data retention policy set out below. We need your Event Registration Information to administer requests by you to attend events organised by us and your participation at such events and to communicate with you should we need to about your attendance at such events, and we have a legitimate interest to process this personal data for the purposes of providing the Services to you.

– Direct Marketing: We may also use your Event Registration Information to send direct marketing to you to keep you informed of events, programmes and online materials made available from us and by the wider CoderDojo movement from time to time (which is a network of Dojos offering coding clubs and coding-related products and services) where we are legally permitted to do so or where you have consented to receiving direct marketing from us. Where we process your information for direct marketing, we are relying on your consent as a means to process your information where legally required to do so.

– Event Photographs and Video Footage: We may take photographs and/or video footage of those attending one of the Events. We do this to promote us, the Dojos and the Events. We will only take photographs and/or video footage containing your image if we have your consent, which we seek to obtain from you when you register to attend the Event. In these circumstances, we are relying on your consent as a means to process your information where legally required to do so.

– Correspondence: If you contact us, we keep a record of this correspondence for the purposes of processing any request, comment or complaint that we may receive from you. We have a legitimate interest to process this personal data in order to respond to such request, comment or complaint.

– Website Access and Cookies: We use “cookies” to monitor site user traffic patterns and site usage (such as how a user accesses our website, including individual pages of our website, and any requests made through our website by a user). This helps us to understand how you use our website so that we can develop and improve the design, layout and functionality of the site. We may be able to identify an individual device and therefore an individual from this information.

We are required to comply with certain legal and regulatory requirements when providing our Services and we may process personal data in order to comply with those requirements, which may include reporting and monitoring obligations. We may process your personal data where necessary to comply with such legal or regulatory obligations, to which we, regulators or law enforcement agencies are subject.

Who we may share personal data with (recipients or categories of recipients of the personal data)

We unequivocally do not sell mailing lists to third parties for their marketing purposes.

Where required or permitted by law, information may be provided to others, such as regulators and law enforcement agencies.

To provide our Services we use third party services, including a third party providing our event booking facility called Tito.

Our marketing platform is powered by DojoMailer, a North Offaly CoderDojo service. We use this service for direct marketing and informing you about the Events.

We use a third party cloud services provider, Google Cloud, to store our mailing list and any other information you may provide to us.

In order to be able to offer our Services to you, these third parties will have temporary or permanent access to yoCur personal data. As a result of data protection legislation in the EU, if these third parties want to process your personal data beyond what we require, these third parties are required to seek your consent to do so.

If you share your personal data with third parties directly, it is likely that your personal data will be subject to their privacy policy. We encourage you to read the terms of their privacy policy carefully.

Cross border transfers of personal data

We will not transfer your personal data outside the EU, except to our third parties that we have instructed to help us provide the Services to you.

In the case of these transfers, we will use reasonable efforts to put in place appropriate safeguards to cover transfers of your personal data including, for example, signing standard contractual clauses/data protection clauses adopted by the European Commission, or where applicable, relying on a Privacy Shield certification where the transfer contains a US entity.
