How we get the personal information and why we have it

Most of the personal information we process is provided to us directly by you for one of the following reasons:

  • To be added to Ériu’s mailing list

We also receive personal information indirectly, from the following sources in the following scenarios:

  • The wider arts network when an individual is recommended for a specific project or activity (and only if the individual has given consent for their personal information to be shared)

We use the information that you have given us in order to:

We may share this information with project partners (e.g venues or festivals) but only if you give Ériu permission to do so.

How we store your personal information

Your information is securely stored electronically on the hard drive of one secure, password protected computer.

We keep project-specific information (e.g application forms, EDI data, financial information) for 12 months. We will then dispose of your personal information by permanently deleting it.

If you have given consent to be on Ériu’s mailing list, we will retain your name and contact details unless you request for your details to be removed.
