Who we are
Our website address is: mathsweekengland.co.uk. Maths Week England, including the website, is maintained by a committee of volunteers as shown here.
What personal data we collect
We may ask you for any or all of the following when you sign up:
First and last name, email address, your school, and the number of people participating in Maths Week. We may also collect details of your IP address to protect against spam or fraud. We may ask for your age but only to confirm that you are an adult. This data will not be used in any other way.
How we collect your data
We use capture forms embedded on our site, and hosted by Mailvio. Here is their privacy policy in full.
Why we collect your data
We use your name and email address to communicate with you about maths week. We use information about your school to ascertain who is taking part in Maths Week. Your school postcode will be used to plot a pin on a participation map. The map may be shared on social media websites but you and your school will not be named. Your contact details are also required to enter competitions and to notify winners.
External Agencies
The Maths Week England Website contains links to external agencies, such as competition providers, who may keep your data to contact you about future events, but they may not pass this on to anyone else. Maths Week England is not responsible for any data you submit to external agencies.
How we secure your data
Your data is not stored by Maths Week England on our website, but by password-protected access on mailvio.com. They use encryption to keep your data safe.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website. You are also responsible for ensuring that you have full parental permission before sharing any images or videos containing children. Any videos or images submitted may be used by Maths Week England for promotional purposes.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site you may be invited to opt-in to saving your name, email address and school in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
Who we share your data with
We may share your school data with the Department for Education in order to ascertain the reach of Maths Week England. We will not share your personal data with anyone else unless specifically required to by current UK law.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue. All users can request to see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time. Website administrators can also see and edit that information. We may keep your personal information for up to 3 years unless you request that we delete it. This is so we can contact about future Maths Weeks.
What rights you have over your data
You have the right to request details of what information Maths Week England currently holds about you. You have the right to request that any or all of the data we hold about you is amended or deleted. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for legal or security purposes.
