We at the Northern Premier Cricket League (NPCL want to make sure all the personal information we have collected about you, is safe and secure whether we collect it through our website at www.northerncricketleague.org.uk or from other sources. This Policy sets out our commitments to you, in compliance with and beyond the General Data Protection Regulation (commonly known as the GDPR) and explains how we collect, store and use your personal information.
We have not appointed a Data Protection Officer to oversee our compliance with data protection laws as we not yet required to do so. Our executive management team has overall responsibility for data protection compliance in our organisation. If you have any questions about this Policy or what we do with your personal information, contact details are set out in the "Contact" section below.
Please read the following carefully to understand the NPCL’s views and practices regarding your personal data and how it will be treated by the NPCL. By visiting the league website www.northerncricketleague.org you are accepting and consenting to the practices described in the Privacy Policy.
When you provide information by which you can be identified, it will, only, be used in accordance with this Privacy Policy and the associated Privacy Notice for our members.
PRIVACY NOTICES
Collecting specific, relevant personal information is a necessary part of us being able to provide you with any services you may request from us or in providing services to our customers and members or just managing our relationship with you.
When we hold or use your personal information as a data controller we will provide you with a privacy notice which sets out in detail what information we hold about you (such as your contact details, address, etc.), how your personal information may be used and the reasons for these uses, together with details of your rights.
Where we collect personal information from you directly, we will provide this privacy notice at the time we collect the personal information from you. Where we receive your personal information indirectly, we will provide this privacy notice when we first contact you, first pass the data to someone else or within a month, whichever is the earlier.
We will only provide this privacy notice to you once, generally at the start of our relationship with you. However if the applicable privacy notice is updated substantially, then we may provide you with details of the updated version. You are encouraged to check on the website regularly for updates.
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DATA CONTROLLERS/PROCESSORS
A data controller is a person who controls how personal information is processed and used. A data processor is a person who processes and uses personal information in accordance with the instructions of a third party, i.e. the data controller.
This distinction is important. You have certain rights in relation to your personal information, for example the right to be provided with the personal information held about you and details of its use and the right to have certain of your personal information either erased or made anonymous. These rights can generally only be exercised against a data controller of your information.
In most cases we will be a data controller of your personal information. In any case where we are not a data controller this means that you cannot exercise these rights against us directly (i.e. where we only act as a data processor, for example with the use of play- cricket), but you can do so against the data controller (i.e. the person who controls how we process the personal information). In these cases we will endeavour to inform you who is the data controller of your personal information so that you can direct any such requests to them.
Where we process your personal information as a data controller we will provide you with a privacy notice. Where we process your personal information as a data processor for a third party, that third party should provide you with a privacy notice which will set out details regarding the processing of your personal information, which should also include the processing to be carried out by us on their behalf.
COLLECTION OF INFORMATION

WHO DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION WITH?
Details of how we disclose your personal information are set out in the privacy notice provided to you, but generally it is where we need to do so in order to run our organisation (e.g. where other people process information for us). In such circumstances, we will put in place arrangements to protect your personal information. Outside of that we do not disclose your personal information unless we are required to do so by law.
If we combine non-personal information with personal information, the combined information will be treated as personal information for as long as it remains combined.
The service may let you post and share personal information, comments, materials and other content. Any information you post or disclose publically may be collected and used by others, may be able to be index by search engine and may not be able to remove. Please be careful when disclosing personal information in these public areas.
We do not transfer personal information about you outside the European Economic Area (EEA). We do not sell, trade or rent your personal information to others.
HOW LONG DO WE HOLD ON TO YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?
Further details of how long we hold onto your personal information for are set out in the relevant privacy notice provided to you, but we will only hold your information for as long as is necessary or where you ask us to delete records we may delete it earlier.
The duration for which we retain your personal information will differ depending on the type of information and the reason why it was collected. However, in some cases personal information may be retained on a long term basis: for example, personal information that we need to retain for legal purposes will normally be retained for at least six years in accordance with usual commercial practice and regulatory requirements.
WHAT ARE YOUR RIGHTS?
Full details of your rights set out in the privacy notice provided to you, but you are entitled by law to ask for a copy of your personal information at any time.
