Privacy Policy

The following statement explains our policy regarding the personal information we collect about you.

Introduction
This policy covers the use of personal information that the Future Museum partnership collects when you register with this website. From time to time, you will be asked to submit personal information about yourself (e.g. name and email address) in order to receive or use services on our website. By entering your details in the fields requested, you enable us and our service providers to provide you with the services you select. Whenever you provide such personal information, we will treat that information in accordance with this policy. When using your personal information we will act in accordance with current legislation and aim to meet current Internet best practice.

Use and storage of your personal information
When you supply any personal information to the Future Museum partnership we have legal obligations towards you in the way we use that data. We must collect the information fairly, that is, we must explain how we will use it (see the notices on particular WebPages that let you know why we are requesting the information) and tell you if we want to pass the information on to anyone else.

In general, any information you provide to us will only be used by us. Your information will be disclosed where we are obliged by law. Also, if you post or send offensive, inappropriate or objectionable content anywhere on this website or otherwise engage in any disruptive behaviour on this website, we can use whatever information that is available to us about you to stop such behaviour. This may involve informing relevant third parties such as your employer, school e-mail/Internet provider and law enforcement agencies about the content and your behaviour.

We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as you use the service you have requested, and remove it in the event that the purpose has been met, or, in the case you no longer wish to continue your Future Museum registration. We will ensure that all personal information supplied is held securely, in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998.

We may contact you for promotional purposes, such as notifying you of improvements to the website unless you specifically agree not to be contacted for such purposes at the time you submit your information on the site, or at a later time if you sign up specifically to receive such promotional information.

If you are aged 16 or under, please get your parent/guardian's permission beforehand whenever you provide personal information to the Future Museum website. Users without this consent are not allowed to provide us with personal information.
