SEAP Drop-In Sessions

For the purpose of administrating the SEAP Drop-In Sessions, the Scottish Funding Council is collecting data to allow those persons who would like to attend, to be allocated a space and to be contacted and sent an invitation to join their preferred online session.

Scottish Funding Council will also utilise aggregate data for internal reporting purposes. This would not include the reporting of any individual’s name or contact details.

For the purpose of administrating the SEAP Drop-In Sessions, the Scottish Funding Council will collect:

• Name.
• Email address.
• Job role.
• Name of organisation being represented.

We collect data directly from you, the data subject.

Our purpose for collecting this information is so we can facilitate SEAP Drop-In Sessions and to communicate essential information about the sessions.

The lawful basis we rely on for processing your personal data is Article 6(1)(e)  – public task; is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

The data will be captured by the Scottish Funding Council’s Website team and directly shared with the Scottish Funding Council’s Learning and Quality team. Data will not be shared outwith the Scottish Funding Council.

Your personal information will be stored on servers in the UK and will not be transferred outside that territory unless required by a court order.

Scottish Funding Council will only retain your personal data long enough to complete the SEAP Drop-In Sessions and any aggregate data to complete any subsequent reporting as set out above.
