How we use your information

This privacy notice tells you how we, Newlings of Royston will collect and use your personal data for provision of services, responding to enquiries, processing your donations through our InMemory donation software and reviewing the performance of our website e.g. through monitoring which pages are visited most regularly.

Why does Newlings of Royston need to collect and store personal data?

In order for us to provide you with funeral services, processing of donations, pre-paid funeral planning services, monumental masonry and related remembrance services, we need to collect personal data for fulfilment of the contract and any related correspondence.

Will Newlings of Royston share my personal data with anyone else?
We may pass your personal data on to third-party service providers contracted to Newlings of Royston in the course of dealing with you. Any third parties that we may share your data with are obliged to keep your details securely, and to use them only to fulfil the service they provide on behalf of Newlings of Royston. When they no longer need your data to fulfil this service, they will dispose of the details in line with Newlings of Royston procedures. If we wish to pass your sensitive personal data onto a third party we will only do so once we have obtained your consent, unless we are legally required to do otherwise.

Newlings of Royston will process (collect, store and use) the information you provide in a manner compatible with the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). We will endeavor to keep your information accurate and up to date, and not keep it for longer than is necessary. Newlings of Royston is required to retain information in accordance with the law, such as information needed for income tax and audit purposes. How long certain kinds of personal data should be kept, may also be governed by specific business-sector requirements and agreed practices. Personal data may be held in addition to these periods, depending on individual business needs.

Under what circumstances will Newlings of Royston contact me?
