Protecting Your Personal Data
Your Personal Data isn’t just protected by the quality, commitment and high standards of Destiny Christian Centre Ministries, it is also protected by law (GDPR) which came to effect on 25th June 2018. The law states that we can only process your personal data when there is a genuine reason to do so and it must be one of the following:

  • We have a legal obligation
  • Where you have consented to the processing
  • When it is in our legitimate interest

Legitimate Interests
When we have a business or commercial reason to process your personal data this is referred to as a legitimate interest. Your personal data is still protected and we must not process it in a way that would be unfair to you or your interests.
If we do use legitmate interests as a reason to process your personal data we will tell you that we are doing so, what our legitimate interests are and provide you with a method to raise any questions or objections you may have. However, compelling grounds for processing such information may over-ride your right to object.
