These details may also be used in advertising or editorial promotion of the exhibition.

The www.canterburyart.com catalogue may continue to be available publicly for some years following the exhibition. An artist may request to have their entry removed or changed if required by writing to the Convenors of the Canterbury Art Exhibition.

Private Personal Information

All personal information listed above which is not listed as public personal information is considered private personal information.

Collection of Personal Information

Prior to each exhibition an invitation to exhibit is sent to artists. This invitation includes an entry form. The entry form is used to supply an artist's personal information. If an artist already has a record with the Canterbury Art Exhibition the entry form will include the details of those records which may be checked for accuracy and corrected if necessary.
