Specific areas we may ask for your personal data and why:
Membership: There are some communications that we are required to send regardless of your contact preferences. These are essential communications, deemed necessary to fulfil our contractual obligations to you. This would include membership benefits such as membership cards and “The Wyvern” magazine, renewal reminders, Direct Debit confirmations and advanced notices and queries regarding returned mail or rejected Direct Debit payments.

Gift Aid: in order to make a claim to HMRC we need to ask for your name, address and post-code, and whether or not you are a UK tax payer (you cannot gift aid if you are not a UK tax-payer).

Bookings and orders: When making online bookings for tickets or other events, or online purchases of shop items, gift cards, advance tickets, group bookings or corporate event bookings, it may be necessary to ask you for your personal details such as email or postal address to complete the transaction. This data is only used for that transaction and nothing else.

Enquiries, questions and complaints: You can talk to us verbally and ask us questions. You do not have to give us any personal information. If you would like a follow up or for someone to contact you we will ask for your preferred contact details. We normally respond in the same manner as we receive the question/query/complaint, unless otherwise requested.

Electronic Newsletter: We may produce a regular e-newsletter or magazine to be sent by email to those who give express permission to receive it. We will not send you this newsletter if not requested. We will not use your contact details collected for another purpose (e.g. gift aid) to send you this e-newsletter.

Donations: If you wish to donate a physical object, archive material, photographs or similar information, we will ask for basic contact details and ultimately a signature on an ‘entry’ form, which acts as your receipt. We may ask for additional details about the object or archive item, such as where did you acquire it, or what you can remember about it. If you are donating cash (for example a collection box) there is no obligation to provide any personal details, though gift-aid forms are available. Cheque and other donations for either specific campaigns or general donations will be thanked and acknowledged if requested, but will not be made public unless expressly negotiated and discussed.

Medical: As part of your training for a safety critical operating grade you will be assessed for medical fitness, or be asked to complete a self-assessment form. This procedure will be reviewed periodically. The information you provide will only be handled by approved and appropriate medical personnel. These records will never be made public and are retain securely.

First-Aid and emergencies: We hope you have a trouble free visit, but if in the unfortunate circumstances you need emergency assistance, or if you experience an incident that needs reporting on Health and Safety grounds, we may ask for some personal contact details. If so, these are used for that purpose only, for example to contact you again for insurance purposes or to discuss an event or incident. Incidents may be discussed at H&S management meetings but with personal data removed.

CCTV Recording: The Midland Railway Trust Ltd. makes use of CCTV recording in a number of buildings and access points for the purposes of crime prevention. These images are stored locally to each system and are reviewed only on an as required basis. Copies of the files are supplied to the statutory authorities as requested in the event of an incident.

Contractors: Midland Railway Trust Ltd. routinely purchases and contracts services and goods from external providers and manufacturers. If you are a supplier of goods and services we will use and maintain any contact details which may contain personal details securely and for the sole purpose of executing the terms of the contract. We will not share these details with anyone else.

Who we might share your information with:
We do not share or sell your personal data that may be collected as part of your visit (or your business contract) to any other person, or organisation, or museum (with the exception of what we are required to do in regard to Gift Aid and HMRC).
