The data we hold about you is collected or generated in the following ways:

- Collected directly from you: for instance through the alumni details form completed by you and subsequently through your expressed preferences for your continued involvement with BU (e.g. volunteering), through donations made or pledged to BU and all your contacts and engagements with BU staff.
- Collected from other third parties using publically available information (for instance, if you have given permission to be listed as a donor to another charity鈥檚 project or have published your employment details on LinkedIn).
- Collected from nomination forms (for instance for Honorary Graduates or Alumni Awards).
- Collected via due diligence research using publically available sources (e.g. company directorships via Companies House).
The data we hold about you may include some special category data, which is subject to extra protections under data protection laws.聽 This is identified and explained in sections 4 and 5 of this Notice.
