Where we may store your information

The data that we collect from you will stored under the control of Canterbury Archers and it's officers in accordance with data protection legislation.
​
Canterbury Archers will take steps necessary to ensure your data is treated securely and in accordance with the GDPR.

We use Google services such as Gmail, Google Contacts and Google Drive to store your information. When data leaves a device it is encrypted using the TLS standard. It is then uploaded to Google drive servers. After reaching Google, it gets unencrypted then re-encrypted using 128-bit AES. The AES encryption keys that are used to encrypt data are then, themselves, encrypted with a rotating set of master keys. This adds another layer of standard security by requiring a second set of encryption keys to get to the data. Google has worked with the GDPR and are committed to complying with those laws. Google does not share personal sensitive information with other people and you yourself would need to share that information.

Information that is uploaded to Google services is stored on their servers across the world including America, Asia and Europe. UK GDPR requires personal data to be stored within the UK however GDPR sets out certain conditions for the transfer of personal data outside of the UK. Such conditions can be met via mechanisms such as standard contract clauses. Standard contractual clauses (SCCs) are written commitments between parties that can be used as a ground for data transfers from the EU to third countries by providing appropriate data protection safeguards. SCCs have been approved by the European Commission and can’t be modified by the parties using them. Such clauses have also been approved for transfers of data to countries outside the UK and Switzerland. Google rely on SCCs for data transfers where required. If you want to obtain a copy of the SCCs, you can contact them: https://support.google.com/policies/

For more information please review Google’s GDPR statements: https://cloud.google.com/privacy/gdpr

Google have undertaken a Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA), the details of which can be found below:
