Privacy Policy

Privacy Statement

This privacy and cookies policy sets out how Raleigh Infant Academy uses and protects any information that you give when you use this website.

The academy may change this policy from time to time by updating this page. You should check this page from time to time to ensure that you are happy with any changes.

We collect no personal information about you when you visit our website unless you choose to provide this information to us. However, we collect and store certain information automatically. Here is how we handle information about your visit to our website.

What we collect and store automatically

If you do nothing during your visit but browse through the website, read pages, or download information, we will gather and store certain information about your visit automatically. We use Google Analytics to identify how the website is being used. This helps us to improve our website in order to tailor it to customer needs. We only use this information for analysis purposes. This information does not identify you personally. Specifically, the information we collect is:

• Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) and IP address (the number automatically assigned to your computer when you are using the Internet) from which you access our website.

• The Internet browser and operating system you are using, your screen resolution and which version of flash you have installed (where applicable).

• The date and time you access the site.

• The pages you visit.

• If you linked to our website from another website, the address of that website (if this is a search engine, we also collect the keywords you used when searching).

If you complete and submit a form from this site (such as asking a question), we will use the information you provide to supply or improve our service to you or to respond to your request. Your details may be processed and stored on a computer system for this purpose. All processing will be in accord with the Data Protection Act and, except for authorised legal investigations, we will not share your details with any other organisations without your permission.

Your data will only be used to deliver the services you have told us you require. Your data may be shared between schools/departments within the academy to provide the service to you for which that data was provided but will not be passed to any other parties.

Security

We are committed to ensuring that your information is secure. In order to prevent unauthorised access or disclosure we have put in place suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

How we use cookies

A cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes a unique identifier that is sent to your Internet browser and is stored on your device’s hard drive. Each website can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser’s preferences allow it, but your browser only permits a website to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other websites. Many websites do this whenever a user visits their website in order to track online traffic.

The academy website uses cookies on every page, to automatically collect the information detailed above (through Google Analytics). We also use cookies on online forms, to ask for a security code to help eliminate spam in our enquiries system.

We use Google Analytics cookies to record information about your visit to the site. None of this information identifies you personally and is used solely to improve the usability of our site.

Please note that during your visits to the academy website you may notice some cookies that are not related to us. When you visit a page with content embedded from, for example, YouTube or Facebook, you may be presented with cookies from these websites. The academy does not control the dissemination of these cookies. You should check the third party websites for more information about these.

Find out more about cookies here.

To give you a better service our site can connect you with a number of links to other organisations and agencies. When connecting to other such websites you will no longer be subject to this policy but to the privacy policy of the new site.

If there are any changes to this privacy policy, we will replace this page with an updated version. It is therefore in your own interest to check the ‘Privacy Policy’ page any time you access our website so as to be aware of any changes which may occur from time to time.

Disclosing personal data about our staff

As an employer, Raleigh Infant Academy (part of the Eastern Multi-Academy Trust) takes its responsibilities regarding the protection of the personal privacy of its staff seriously. Professional contact details for staff members are only made available via our public website if consent has been given for such a disclosure. We will respond to email requests for individual staff members’ contact details by issuing their work contact details only. We will not disclose any private non-work contact details. Any request for the latter will be forwarded to the staff member concerned, who will then decide whether to respond or not
