We expect our staff, managers, trustees, volunteers, members and any providers we use (for example payroll or pension providers) to keep to the guidelines as set out in our Data Policy and under ICO and GDPR guidance when they are using or processing personal data and other confidential or sensitive information. This is set out more clearly below.

Our Chair and Executive Committee are responsible for making sure we keep to these requirements across 10th Leicester (Syston) Scout Group.
8.2 Data protection officer (DPO) or equivalent role holder
TSA has externally appointed a DPO to ensure the organisation is monitoring compliance with GDPR and other Data Protection laws, our data protection policies, awareness- raising, training, and audits.
