Privacy policy

RREUSE and your personal data

RREUSE collects certain information or data about you when you use rreuse.org.

We collect:

  • questions, queries or feedback you leave, including your email address if you contact RREUSE
  • your name, job title, organisation name and country if you register for one of our events. For events held in the European Parliament, attendees without a permanent access pass need to send us their nationality, date of birth and i.d. or passport number which is then shared with the European Parliament security services.
  • your email address and subscription preferences when you sign up to our email alerts, and how you use our emails – for example whether you open them and which links you click on
  • information on how you use the site, using cookies and page tagging techniques

This data can be viewed by authorised people in RREUSE to:

  • improve the site by monitoring how you use it
  • manage our event registrations and contact you about events you have registered for
  • gather feedback to improve our services, for example our email alerts
  • respond to any feedback you send us, if you’ve asked us to
  • send email alerts to users who request them

Where your data is stored

We store your data on a secure server located in Belgium. Our website is hosted by MultiMediaForge, our mailing list database is stored with MailChimp and event registrations are recorded using Google Sheets.

Keeping your data secure

Sending information over the internet is generally not completely secure, and we can’t guarantee the security of your data while it’s in transit. Any data you send is at your own risk. We have procedures and security features in place to keep your data secure once we receive it.

Disclosing your information

We may pass on your personal information if we have a legal obligation to do so. We won’t share your information with any other organisations for marketing, market research or commercial purposes, and we don’t pass on your details to other websites.

You can find out what information we hold about you, and ask us not to use any of the information we collect. Please contact us at info@rreuse.org.
