Privacy Policy

At the International Curators Forum (ICF) we collect and use personal information from those who have subscribed to our mailing lists. This policy will apply in all locations where we operate to all forms of information and to all systems used to collect, store, process or transfer information.

In countries where there are different privacy and data protection laws, we will comply with those laws where they meet internationally accepted privacy principles and fair information handling practices.

ICF is committed to:

  • protecting the privacy and rights of its participants, subscribers and staff
  • protecting the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the information it collects, stores, transfers and processes in accordance with UK law and international good practice, and to meeting its legal requirements and contractual obligations
  • explaining why it needs personal information, only asking for the personal information it needs and only sharing personal information within the ICF and with other organisations as necessary or where the person concerned has given their consent
  • allowing people to request access to the personal information it holds on them and to complain if they believe their information has been mishandled
  • not keeping personal information for longer than necessary
  • ensuring that actual or suspected breaches of information security are reported and investigated
How to complain about your data

If you are unhappy with how ICF has used your personal information, you can tell us directly. Please email us at admin@internationalcuratorsforum.org with the details, and we will look into it.

We will confirm we have received your complaint within 30 days, and respond as quickly as we can.

If you are still not satisfied with our response, you have the right to raise the matter with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK’s data protection regulator. You can contact them at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113.

We will provide adequate and appropriate resources to implement this policy and will ensure it is communicated and understood.

ICF will review this global policy statement annually to reflect new legal and regulatory developments and ensure good practice.
