Privacy Policy
With your consent, data you provide when registering for the Cycling Friendly Award programme is transferred from our online system to assessors based at our service centres, as listed below, as well as mailing lists and external mailing software for purposes of informing you of Development Grant funding opportunities and related Cycling Scotland training programmes and events.
In order to help us reach prospective Cycling Friendly organisations across the country, Cycling Scotland have partnered with regional Cycling Friendly accredited service centres. When you register for the award, you will be assigned a local assessor who will be in touch with you to arrange an assessment. They are on hand to help you through your Cycling Friendly journey – providing one-to-one support to achieve the award.
Our service centres are:
Velocity Café and Bicycle Workshop
We may process personal data when we need to do this to fulfil a condition of our grant funding (for example, if you have applied for a grant from us or if we are evaluating the impact of the work our grant funding has supported), where you are a trustee, an employee or a contractor (to manage the relationship) or where we are required to do this by law or other regulations. When we share data with external evaluators or provide reports to our funders (as we are required to do under our conditions of grant), the information will be anonymised. Your personal data is not shared.
