How we update, screen and analyse your information

Where we appoint an external party to undertake a screening of information, any such arrangements will be subject to a formal agreement between Malvern Theatres and that organisation, to protect the security of your data.
We may segment the information we hold about you in our database based on a proprietary score. These scores are calculated using personal data, as well as how engaged with us you have previously been, and indicators of future engagement. Analysis of this helps us understand our Members, donors and potential donors to ensure we are efficient and that only relevant communications are sent to you.

We do not disclose personal data to any third parties or external organisations, other than data processors carrying out work on our behalf.

We may occasionally need to transfer your personal information overseas, for instance to a bulk email distributor, such as MailChimp. Where this is necessary, this may be to countries or territories around the world.
We are required to ensure any transfers of data will be done securely, in accordance with best practice, and in compliance with the Data Protection Act 1998.
