The University of Portsmouth will collect your personal data to enable us to keep in contact with you as an alumnus. 

What data do we process?

We transfer the following personal data from your student record when you finish studying at the University:

  • Your name
  • Contact details
  • Your degree details 

Disclosure of your personal data to third parties

We will only disclose your personal data:

  • Where you give written consent for the disclosure
  • When the University is under a legal requirement to provide information (e.g. Higher Education Statistics Agency or HESA)
  • If required by the police or other agencies investigating a criminal offence

It is not possible to list every purpose for which your data will be used, but this will only ever be in relation to University business.

For further information, please read the Data Protection Statement for Alumni below.

How long will we keep your personal data?

Your alumni record will be retained indefinitely but we will check with you on a regular basis to ensure your information is kept up to date and you may tell us to remove your details from the Alumni database at any time. 

Your responsibilities as a data subject

We need you to tell us if any of your details change so that we can keep your records up to date.
