This is an important step forward in improving the way we connect, communicate, collaborate and access Scouting. Not only is Microsoft 365 key to making the business of Scouting smarter by enhancing productivity, collaboration, and secure file and document sharing and management, but it also plays an important role in meeting the compliance obligations we all share around information and data security, child protection and centralised communications.
Using a Scouting email address allows you to manage and maintain a Scout-Life balance by keeping your Scouting mailbox separate from your personal inbox, it looks more professional when contacting parents and other outside organisations can be a lot more confident of your identity when receiving emails. It also fulfils our duties and responsibilities when it comes to GDPR and SAR (Data Subject Access Requests) ensuring that we are compliant when storing and securing all personal information, be it emails, personal details, other information, etc.
