- As a not-for-profit, we do not need to register with the Information Commissioner for our members list. We do not process any other personal data.
- The list of members names is available to any other member. We may need to provide the members register to a member or non-member if requested for a suitable purpose, but we'd probably ask a lawyer or court to advise on whether the purpose is suitable or not.
