  • We are legally obliged to process your data. In such instances, individuals are under a statutory obligation to provide personal data.
  • We believe it’s in the legitimate interest of either you as the data subject, or us, to process your data. The legitimate interest for processing could be performing a contract with the individual, complying with a legal obligation, and protecting vital interests. Legitimate interest can be used where there is a reasonable purpose to process an individual’s data. For more information on legitimate interest, please see the ICO’s website or contact us.
  • We believe it is in the public interest to process your data, and this interest is supported by clear law e.g. safeguarding.

Photography, images and film of teachers or pupils created in schools is taken and used with your consent.

 

Your school will discuss with you how your, and/or your child’s, image and information is going to be used and ensure you are happy for it to be used in this way. They can ask us to stop any time.

Event Photography

 

Where an event is organised by Titan Teacher Training, we will ask you for consent to use any photographs taken where you are the focus of the image. Permission will be requested either prior, during or after the event.

 

Where the photograph does not focus on you as an individual, e.g. where you appear in the background of the photograph or as one of a number of people in a group shot, it is not normally necessary for us to ask your permission. We will ensure the terms and conditions of the event tell you if there will be photographers present.

If you do not want your photograph taken, please either tell the photographer at the time, if it is convenient to do so, or contact Titan Teacher Training after the event. You can change your mind at any time, and we will refresh your consent on a regular basis.

 

Where the event is organised by a third party, we will use photography from the event under our legitimate interests. We will be clear in our terms and conditions of entry if this is the case. If you do not want your photograph taken, please either tell the photographer at the time, if it is convenient to do so, or contact Titan Teacher Training after the event.
