Under UK GDPR, Heage Primary School is the Data Controller, a Data Processor, or both.  Our role differs depending on how we use the data collection and handling process.  As a Data Controller we define how and why personal data is collected, stored and used.  We also utilise data processors - third parties, that process the data we control on your behalf. 

Heage Primary School achieves compliance by ensuring personal data is processed lawfully, transparently, and for a specific purpose.  Once the purpose is fulfilled and the data is no longer required, it is then managed in line with our Records Retention Guidelines.
