Data Protection

Sport England is a privacy conscious organisation and is strongly committed to your right to privacy. That is why we have drafted a Privacy and Data Protection Statement, which follows guidelines set out in the Data Protection Act 2018.

The Data Protection Act 2018

The Data Protection Act 2018 set rules for processing personal information and applies to structured paper records as well as data held on computers. With the Freedom of Information Act 2000 which came into force on 1 January 2005, the provisions of the Data Protection Act 2018 will apply to all records, including those structured other than by reference to the data subject, and completely unstructured files.

Sport England’s Use and Storage of Data

The Data Protection Act states that those who record and process personal information must be open about how the information is used and must follow the eight principles of ‘good information handling’.

These principles state that data must be:

Fairly and lawfully processed
Processed for limited purposes
Adequate, relevant and not excessive
Accurate
Not kept for longer than is necessary
Processed in line with your rights
Secure, and
Personal data will not be transferred outside the European Economic Area unless that country provides a adequate level of protection

By law, data controllers, including Sport England, have to keep to these principles.

If you believe in any way that Sport England is not processing your personal data in accordance with these principles, please contact Sport England’s Records Manager , at the address listed on the contacts page.

How does Sport England collect data?

There are several means by which Sport England collects personally identifiable data, for example:

Through a recruitment application form
Through an application for grant funding
Acceptance for inclusion on a mailing list or database
For research, surveys or monitoring purposes
By entering into email or telephone correspondence with an employee of Sport England
Through obtaining information for HR records

All personally identifiable information provided to Sport England is processed in accordance with the principles of the Data Protection Act 2018. We are registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office and our registration number is Z7545760.

Is information passed to third parties?

It is Sport England’s policy to only disclose information to third parties if explicitly required to do so by United Kingdom Law.

Sport England will obtain your consent before passing on any information to any third parties.

Sport England does not collect or compile personally identifying information for dissemination or sale to external parties for marketing purposes or host mailings on behalf of third parties.

How do I make a subject access request?

Individuals wishing to access their personal information should submit a request in accordance with the following notes:

Make your request, in writing, to the Records Manager.
The request should include details and provide documented evidence of who you are (e.g. driving licence, passport, birth certificate). You should also provide as much detail as possible regarding the information you wish to access (e.g. where and by whom information is believed to be held, specific details of information required etc).
You are not required to state WHY you wish to access the information: the details we require are merely those that will aid the efficient location and retrieval of information.
Sport England adopts a general policy of openness in terms of allowing individuals access to their personal information and wherever possible we aim to waive the £10 administration fee (permitted under the Data Protection Act 2018).
Once the Records Manager receives a Subject Access Request, all efforts will be made to fully comply within 40 days. In any event, you will receive all the information that has been located and can be released within 40 days and an explanation for any information that cannot be provided at that time.
