Events

Early Career Researcher Programme
This site asks you to provide information about yourself via our programme sign up form.  We gather this information so that we can use numbers for catering, security and room capacity. We will use the data for a post-event report but will only keep discipline and status. We use this personal information with your consent which you can withdraw at any time. We share your data with CCI Services for them to check attendance capacity and security purposes. We will hold your data from sign up until the event is closed when it will be deleted from our records.

This site asks you to provide information about yourself via an Eventbrite online form.  We gather this information so that we can use numbers for catering, security and room capacity. We use this personal information with your consent which you can withdraw at any time. We share your data with CCI Services and volunteers from UCCRI to inform us on capacity for the venue and as security in case the building needs to be vacated during the event. We will hold your data until the event is closed. 

Internship Application form

This site asks you to provide information about yourself in our internship application form. We gather this information so that we can process your application and include you in the selection process. We consider the processing of your personal information for the above purposes to be either necessary for us to take steps with a view to creating a contractual relationship with you (e.g. to assess your application for employment with us), or necessary for compliance with a legal obligation (e.g. equal opportunities monitoring), or necessary for the performance of tasks we carry out in the public interest (e.g. non-statutory reporting or research).  We will delete the data of unsuccessful applicants within 1 year of their making the application, and will delete the data of successful applicants within 6 years of the completion of the internship. Your data will be held by UCCRI, and will be shared with the University of Cambridge Department of Geography, who provide administrative support to UCCRI. Your data will also be shared with your referees, and with the supervisors for the project. You can find out how we process your personal data at: https://www.hr.admin.cam.ac.uk/hr-staff/hr-data/applicant-data.
