L&SPSFL PRIVACY POLICY

Privacy Policy

The Lambeth & Southwark Primary Schools Football League (LSF League) respects your privacy and takes the protection of personal information seriously. This LSF League privacy policy explains how we collect, use, store and protect personal data when you visit our website or contact the league.

We handle personal information in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. Furthermore, we aim to be transparent about how and why we use your information.

Who We Are

The Lambeth & Southwark Primary Schools Football League organises football competitions for participating primary schools across Lambeth and Southwark.

You can learn more about our activities on our About Us page.

The league is responsible for personal data it collects and controls directly. However, participating schools remain responsible for information they process independently.

Information We Collect

We may collect names, email addresses, telephone numbers, school affiliations and information submitted through website enquiries.

Additionally, we may process information relating to school representatives, coaches, fixtures, competition results and league administration.

When you visit our website, technical information such as IP addresses and browser details may also be processed. However, we aim to collect only information necessary for legitimate purposes.

How We Use Personal Information

We use personal information to respond to enquiries, organise competitions and communicate with participating schools.

Furthermore, we may maintain league records, publish fixtures and results, and manage administrative responsibilities.

Where appropriate, we may publish school names and historical competition information. However, we do not sell personal information to third parties.

Our Legal Basis for Processing

We process personal data where necessary for legitimate interests, legal obligations or consent, depending on the circumstances.

For example, our legitimate interests include organising school football, responding to enquiries and maintaining competition records.

Where consent is required, individuals may withdraw it at any time. However, withdrawing consent does not affect processing already carried out lawfully.

Children’s Privacy and Safeguarding

Protecting children’s personal information is particularly important to the league.

Therefore, we aim to minimise the information collected about pupils and avoid publishing unnecessary identifying details.

Participating schools must follow relevant safeguarding requirements when sharing children’s information, photographs or other content. Furthermore, schools should obtain appropriate permissions before supplying material for publication.

Sharing and Protecting Information

We may share relevant information with participating schools, authorised league officials and trusted service providers where necessary.

However, we limit information sharing to appropriate purposes and apply reasonable security measures.

Where external providers process information on our behalf, appropriate data protection arrangements should apply. Additionally, we review our practices when necessary to support responsible information handling.

Data Retention and Your Rights

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary for league administration, legal requirements or legitimate historical records.

Under UK data protection law, individuals may have rights to access, correct or erase their personal information. They may also request restrictions on processing or object to certain uses.

To exercise these rights, please contact the league through its official contact arrangements. We will consider requests in accordance with applicable legislation.

Cookies and External Websites

Our website may use cookies to support essential functions and improve the visitor experience.

For further information, please read our Cookie Policy.

Additionally, our website may contain links to external organisations. However, we are not responsible for their independent privacy practices.

Contact and Complaints

For questions about this LSF League privacy policy or the handling of personal information, please contact the league through its official contact arrangements.

If you have concerns about data protection, you may also contact the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).

We may update this policy when legislation, website functionality or league operations change. Therefore, we recommend reviewing this page periodically.
