Why we collect and process your data
We collect your data to provide you with the service that you have requested.
If you have signed up to our mailing list, we use your data to send you weekly news briefs and to keep you up to date with other IER news and activities, such as when we are holding events you may be interested in and when we are recruiting for new staff.
If you have booked a place at one of our events, we collect your data to reserve your seat, create a delegate name tag, and to process payment.
If you have made a purchase from the IER, we collect your data to process your payment and deliver the products you have ordered.
Processing your data in order to provide these services helps us to achieve our charitable goals of providing labour law education and informing the debate around possible reforms.

Your data is stored on a secure database that can only be accessed by approved Data Processors within the IER. We only hold your data for as long as is necessary to perform the service you have requested.
When we share your data
We never share data with any other organisation. No third party will ever be given access to your data.
