Your privacy

What we keep about you, why, for how long, and how to ask for it.

Last changed 2 November 2026.

Northbank Commons Trust keeps as little about you as it can. This page says what that is.

The advice desk

When you see an adviser, we keep notes only if you say yes: what you came about and what we did. They are locked, read only by the advisers, and kept for six years, as the advice quality standard asks. You can ask to see them, or to have them deleted, at any time.

The library

Your library card holds your name, address and what you have on loan. When you return a book, we forget you borrowed it.
