Data protection

Your personal details will be stored and used by the Parish for the purposes of conducting and administering Confirmation. Canon Law requires some of your personal data to be entered in Registers and stored permanently, and in the case of Confirmations the Parish is obliged to notify the parish where the candidate was baptised, where different. Data may also have to be shared with the Diocese, for example where certain permissions are needed. Your details will not otherwise be disclosed outside the parish. Full details of how we process your data, and your rights, are set out in our Privacy Policy and may also be seen in the Parish Office.
