The Doctor Abc is committed to protecting your privacy and security.

This privacy policy explains how and why we use your personal data and is intended to help ensure that you remain informed and in control of your information.

Your Personal Data

We collect 'personal data', which is information that identifies a living person, or which can be identified as relating to a living person.

When we talk about 'you' or 'your' in this policy we mean any living person whose personal data we collect.

When we talk about 'Members' and 'Membership' we are referring to subscribing Members of the British Museum Friends.

Protection

We employ a variety of physical and technical measures to protect information we hold and to prevent unauthorised access to, or use or disclosure of your personal data.

Electronic data and databases are stored on secure computer systems and we control who has access to information (using both physical and electronic means). Staff receive data protection training and we maintain a set of data protection procedures which our staff are required to follow when handling personal data.

Payment security

All electronic forms that ask you for your financial data will use the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol to encrypt the data between your browser and our servers.

If you use a payment card to donate, to buy Membership or to purchase something from us online, we will pass your payment card details securely to our payment provider. We comply with the payment card industry data security standard (PCI-DSS) published by the PCI Security Standards Council.
