Online forms
In general, we will collect the information we need to provide you with the service to which the form relates. For example, if you subscribe to e-newsletters, we will collect your email address. The information you provide as part of our Membership registration form will allow us to create an account and provide you with access to Member resources upon payment of a subscription fee.
If we ask for further personal information, such as a phone number or address, we will explain why we are asking and how it enables us to provide the best possible service. We will not ask for information that is not relevant to helping us delivering a service.
We collect information on your CLT group and associated projects. We may share this data with other stakeholders such as local enabling hubs or government agencies, this will not be linked to your personal data, and will only appear in anonymised form. We also have a map of CLTs in England & Wales – this is based on the general location of CLTs only and any group can be removed upon request.
