How is my garden location saved?

You enter the location of your garden during registration by clicking on a map or entering a grid reference. You also give a 'site name' such as the nearest town, borough or village. When you view your own records you'll see the accurate location and the site name.

When Butterfly Conservation and iRecord Verifiers view your records they will also see full details, so your butterfly observations can be checked and any feedback can be provided. Butterfly Conservation and iRecord Verifiers can also download Garden Butterfly Survey records with full details to add them to Butterflies for the New Milliennium database and local County Recorder databases that they manage.

Regular users of iRecord or other Garden Butterfly Survey users cannot view or download your records with full location details. They can see your name and the garden location blurred to the nearest 1Km without a site name.

More details regarding storage and sharing of records is available in the Privacy Notice.
