GENERAL DATA PROTECTION REGULATION (GDPR) YOUR ACTION IS NEEDED! You may be aware that new data protection legislation came into force in the UK on 25th May 2018. It governs how personal data is processed and we as a Parish now need to obtain your informed consent to continue to use your personal data in our Parish.
GDPR covers the personal data (eg addresses, telephone numbers, email addresses) we collect and hold in our Parish to ensure you as Parishioners can be contacted, for example for preparation to receive the Sacraments, when organising Parish group meetings or rotas, or to process Gift Aid donations. ‘Informed consent’ means that we tell you how we process and use your data, so that you can decide whether to give your consent for its use within the Parish to continue.
The Data Privacy Notice sets out how the Parish processes personal data. If we do not receive a written consent from you, we have to remove your details from our Parish register and from any groups to which you may belong. A copy of the Data Privacy Notice is available here on the Parish website. Consent forms can be found in the Church porches, we ask that these are returned to the Presbytery, as soon as possible. A separate Consent Form is required for each adult within each family. If you have any questions, please contact the Parish office.
OUR PARISH LIST OF THE SICK Instead of publishing a list of the sick of the Parish in the Bulletin each week, we will be using a book where you can enter the name of the person to be prayed for. In line with new data protection legislation please obtain the consent of the person before entering their name in the book. This book will be placed on the altar during each Mass at Our Lady of Peace Church.
EUCHARISTIC MINISTERS will be commissioned at the 9.45am and 11.30am Mass this Sunday, 3rd June and at the 6.00pm Mass on Saturday, 9th June. This is a special blessing for our Eucharistic Ministers.
