At St. John's and St. Andrew's we take the issue of safeguarding and our responsibilities under data protection regulations very seriously. This includes ensuring the appropriate use of images of adults, children, young people and vulnerable adults.
As such we require the written consent of parents or carers to use photographs or video recordingsof children, young people (under 18 years old) and vulnerable adults.
Any use of images at St. John's and St. Andrew's is underpinned by our Safeguarding Policy. We will only caption with first names, if appropriate, and will not publish personal information such as addresses or other contact details by which the person(s) in the photograph or video could be identified.
The images may appear in printed material (such as a parish magazine, newspaper, annual report) or may be used for display purposes.
We may also circulate images to local or national media or upload them to parish/ diocesan websites and social media, but only with your express permission - see below.
