UCL, a compa­ny incorporated by Royal Charter (number RC 000631), is the entity that determines how and why your personal data is processed. This means that UCL is the ‘controller’ of your personal data for the purposes of data protection law.


3. Personal data that we collect about you

We may collect, use, store and transfer different kinds of personal data about you. This may include:

  • Your name, email address, UCL ISD userid and password.
  • The names and other details about third parties who are involved in the issues we are helping you with.

We may also use anonymised data, meaning data from which you cannot be identified, for the purposes of:

  • Education and research; or
  • Fundraising and promotional purposes.

Anonymised data may also be used in published reports or journals and at conferences.
