The SHM Foundation's policy reflects our duties under the Data Protection Act 1988 to use information fairly, keep it secure, make sure it is accurate, and keep it up to date. Further details on the Data Protection Act can be found on the Information Commissioner's website www.informationcommissioner.gov.uk
This policy applies to all pages hosted on this site and also to all other The SHM Foundation owned websites except where specifically mentioned on other The SHM Foundation sites. It does not apply to other organisations to which we may link and whose privacy policies may differ.
