The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), requires all businesses and organisations, who collect and use personal information, to do so in a manner that protects your privacy and rights. The GDPR covers the processing of all personal data. I treat your data with the utmost care and will only use or share it for the purposes agreed with you in advance.
Any personal or family details discussed are purely for the purposes of writing your ceremony, which you will see and approve. I will not disclose these details to anyone who is not a guest at, or connected to, your ceremony, without your express written consent. All notes taken are shredded after use. Scripts are retained in secure computer files. Printed scripts are destroyed after use, except a paper copy of the script that I will send to you after the ceremony.
All personally identifiable data will be destroyed after six years of the ceremony taking place. This is in case of subsequent enquiries from families regarding funeral ceremonies that I have created for them, and for tax purposes.
I will not give your personal data to any third party, except where required to do so by law under duress of any legal proceeding or investigation.
