HOW WE USE YOUR DATA THE GENERAL DATA PROTECTION REGULATION (GDPR)

In May 2018, the General Data Protection Regulation came into force, extending the data rights of individuals. It requires us, as an organisation and a charity, to take appropriate and extensive measures to protect your data.

As a member of the Reigatian community, we hold information on our database. This includes your name, address, email and phone number. Depending on the extent to which you have been involved with the school, we may also hold information on donations you have given, Gift Aid declarations and possible correspondence we may have exchanged.

It is important for you to know that we do not share your data with other organisations or individuals, with the exception of those carefully selected to provide us with essential services, such as a mailing house (to send The Reigatian Magazine) or data cleansing (to ensure records we hold are accurate). We are committed to respecting your privacy and the GDPR enhances our data policies.

We contact individuals on our database with school and Foundation news, reunion and event invitations and fundraising campaign information, always giving you an opportunity to opt out. Copies of our Privacy Notice and Data Retention Policy can be found on our website: rgs.foundation. We hope you enjoy hearing from us and being part of the Reigatian community. If you have any questions about how we handle your data, please get in touch at: foundation@reigategrammar.org

CLASS OF EXPLAINED…

We record the dates that alumni attended RGS based on the year that they would have left had they stayed until the end of the Upper Sixth. So, if somebody left after the Fifth Form, their ‘Class of’ would be two years later than the date they actually left.

We record it in this way to ensure that alumni are always categorised in the correct year group. If we organised a 50-year gold reunion, for example, we will invite the Class of 1973 (in 2023).
