Young Norfolk Arts Trust (YNAT) is a registered charity (Charity no. 1162863) that receives funding from Arts Council England, Norfolk County Council, Norwich City Council and other regional and national funding bodies. When YNAT collects information from members of the public, staff and other partner organisations we do so by complying with the Data Protection Act 1998 (DPA). To comply with the new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (May 2018), we have updated our practices. Our website is powered by WordPress.

What information do we collect?

  • Non-personalised details of social media engagement
  • Visits to our website including operating system and location data (non-personalised)
  • Image and likeness in photographs and videos captured at live events which may potentially be used for promotional purposes

Why do we collect this data and what do we use it for?

We have a legitimate interest in processing the data in order to carry out our activity, as reasonably expected for our type of organisation. The information collected is used to select and inform you of events or activities we think may be of interest to you and to support our work as a charity.

The data we collect allows us to tailor our communications and to understand what activities have been successful. It also helps us to communicate our story to our funders.

YNAT occasionally records and uses film, photographs and audio for promotional purposes on its website, social media accounts and other formats under its legitimate interests and grounds for processing. Where appropriate we will obtain your specific consent, but typically not for group shots or when the image is for internal use only. When relevant, public notice is given that recording equipment will be used at events/activities. If you would prefer not to be included in any image recording, please speak to a member of Young Norfolk Arts team or contact us after the event.
