大象传媒

Your trust is very important to us. This means the 大象传媒 is committed to protecting the privacy and security of your personal data. It is important that you read this notice so that you are aware of how and why we are using such personal data. This privacy notice describes how we collect and use personal data about you during and after your relationship with us, in accordance with data protection law.

Why are we doing this and how can you participate?

After an unprecedented year in women’s sport, the 大象传媒 is looking for your suggestions for the Woman’s Hour Power List 2023: Women in Sport. This list is to celebrate women in the UK who are making a significant positive contribution to women’s sport.
Woman’s Hour listeners are able to suggest their thoughts for who should appear on the list. We’re open for your suggestion from Thursday 26th January until midnight on Wednesday 8th February 2023.

The 大象传媒 will collect the personal data via an online platform used by the 大象传媒.

There are five (5) categories you can put someone forward for, which are:

• Sportswoman
• Leader
• Change-maker
• Amplifier
• Grassroots

We ask that if you suggest someone who is not a professional in the world of sport, that you ask for their permission before you put them forward as a suggestion for the list. We also ask that you share this privacy notice with them, so they understand how we will use their personal data.

Our expert judging panel will shortlist a final thirty (30) women, and then rank them. Before deciding on a shortlist, we may get in touch with you for more information about your suggestion. We may also ask you to appear on-air to discuss the reasons behind your suggesting someone for the list.

If you or the person you suggest appears on-air, this may include the programme being available online and/or on demand, and may be used again in a future broadcast.

We may use your suggestion, on-air appearance, or information about your suggested person for promotional purposes on the 大象传媒’s social media sites.

For information in relation to how the 大象传媒 will process your personal data where you are providing contributions to our programmes, please see our
