Privacy Policy

At North London Wine School (NLWS), we believe in being open and up front with our customers, so we have developed our Privacy Policy, a quick and simple summary explaining how we manage, share and protect your information.

Key Principles

Your personal data is important and there are a range of laws in place to safeguard it (the most important of which is the General Data Protection Regulation or “GDPR”). NLWS is committed to doing its part to protect your personal data and comply with those laws.

In practice, this means that all personal data which we hold about you will be:

  • Used lawfully, fairly and in a transparent way
  • Collected only for valid purposes that we have clearly explained to you and not used in any way that is incompatible with those purposes
  • Relevant to the purposes we have told you about
  • Accurate and kept up to date
  • Kept securely

This Privacy Policy sets out how NLWS uses and protects any information that you give us when you use this website.
