IPEM External Representatives
How we collect your data
We collect data about you in a variety of ways, starting at the point of application where we will collect the data from you directly. You have the opportunity to add to this base data, either using our website portal or contacting the office. We also update this data through your subsequent contact with us.
Purposes of the processing
Personal information which you supply will be used to:
• To keep a history of IPEM’s External Representatives
• To pay expenses
Legal basis for processing
We process your personal data under the legitimate interest basis for processing, except financial data, which is processed under the legal basis for processing.
Legitimate Interest
External representatives expect this processing to take place so that they can achieve the objectives of the external group and have their expenses paid by IPEM.
Data retention period
We will keep an electronic record of your external representation for IPEM in perpetuity, for historical purposes.
We keep a copy of any reports that you have submitted in accordance with our document retention policy.
We will also keep your expense claims and a record of your financial history (expenses paid) on our finance system for 6 years in accordance with our legal obligations.

It is not mandatory that you provide this data and you can choose what personal data you want to share. The legal basis for this collection is your consent and we will use this data for diversity and inclusion monitoring and analysis.
Data Security
Only very few designated named people in the national office will have access to the special category data and they have signed data confidentiality agreements.

We share your email address with members of the external groups so that they can send you details of meetings, agendas, papers and minutes.
