Privacy Policy
This policy explains what personal information PNP Connect collects, why we collect it, and how it is used and protected. It applies to all public-facing features of the platform.
Effective date: 29 May 2026 · View Terms of Use
01
What information we collect
When you submit a membership application through PNP Connect, we collect the name, contact details (phone number or email address), constituency, and any additional information you voluntarily include in the application form.
When you use the voter register lookup, we collect the search terms you enter (name and constituency). We do not store lookup queries beyond the immediate session.
When you express interest in volunteering, we record that preference alongside the membership details you provide.
We do not collect payment information, government-issued identification numbers, or sensitive personal data through this platform.
02
How we use your information
Information submitted through membership applications is used exclusively for party communications, constituency follow-up, and the administration of PNP membership records.
Authorised PNP staff use the information to contact you about your application, to assign you to the correct constituency team, and to send party communications that are relevant to your area.
Volunteer preferences are passed directly to the constituency team for your area so that they can reach out with opportunities.
We do not use your information for commercial purposes, sell it to third parties, or share it with organisations outside of the People's National Party structure.
03
Who can access your information
Access to personal data collected through PNP Connect is limited to authorised PNP staff: constituency coordinators, senior party officials, and the technical team responsible for maintaining the platform.
All staff with access to personal data are bound by party data-handling guidelines and may only use the information for the purposes described in this policy.
We do not grant access to third-party advertisers, data brokers, or public bodies except where required by law.
04
How we protect your information
PNP Connect stores personal data in a secured database accessible only through authenticated staff accounts. All connections to the platform are encrypted in transit.
Access controls ensure that each staff member can only view data relevant to their role and constituency. Superadmin access is restricted to a small number of authorised personnel.
We conduct periodic reviews of who has access to the system and remove access promptly when a staff member's role changes or ends.
05
How long we keep your information
Membership records are retained for as long as your membership remains active or for a reasonable period following a lapsed application, to allow for follow-up.
If you request that your record be removed, we will action that request within a reasonable timeframe and confirm deletion to you by the contact method you provided.
Server logs and operational data are retained for a shorter period consistent with routine system maintenance.
06
Your rights
You have the right to request a copy of the personal information we hold about you, to ask us to correct inaccurate information, and to request that we delete your record.
You may also withdraw consent for party communications at any time by contacting us at the address below. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before your withdrawal.
To exercise any of these rights, please write to us at info@e-hanover.org with the subject line "Data Request". We aim to respond within 14 days.
08
Changes to this policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. When we do, the updated version will be published on this page with a revised effective date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
Continued use of PNP Connect after a policy update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
