To help us provide a service to our members, customers and employees, the RCN Group collects and processes certain personal information as described below:

  • RCN: To help us provide our services including administering membership records, balloting members, organising activities, promoting what we do, or supporting and managing our employees.

Some of this information is provided by, and personally identifies you. For example your name, email address, home address and bank details.

We also collect information from the RCN Group services you’ve used. For example, searching our websites, signing up to an event or clicking an online advert. This helps us to find out what information is important to you so that we can improve the services we offer.

Using your personal information

We use the information provided by you to contact you in our role as a trade union for example, for campaigns or ballots. We use the information you provide us to deliver, tailor and improve our services.

We only keep your information for as long as you have a relationship with us and where there is a legitimate reason to do so.

  • We retain casefiles for 7 years from closure date
  • Full current Member data for the lifetime of the membership
  • Former Member Data - Due to providing support services to any current and former member, for events which happened during their paid membership, we have to retain minimal data to identify former members and live membership dates
