1. What Does This Notice Cover?

This Privacy Information explains how we use your personal data: how it is
collected, how it is held, and how it is processed. It also explains your rights
under the law relating to your personal data.

 

2. What Is Personal Data?

Personal data is defined by the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018
(collectively, “the Data Protection Legislation”) as ‘any information relating
to an identifiable person who can be directly or indirectly identified in
particular by reference to an identifier’.

Personal data is, in simpler terms, any information about you that enables you
to be identified. Personal data covers obvious information such as your name and
contact details, but it also covers less obvious information such as
identification numbers, electronic location data, and other online identifiers.

The personal data that we use is set out in Part 5, below.



3. What Are My Rights?

Under the Data Protection Legislation, you have the following rights, which we
will always work to uphold:

 1. The right to be informed about our collection and use of your personal data.
    This Privacy Notice should tell you everything you need to know, but you can
    always contact us to find out more or to ask any questions using the details
    in Part 11.

 2. The right to access the personal data we hold about you. Part 10 will tell
    you how to do this.

 3. The right to have your personal data rectified if any of your personal data
    held by us is inaccurate or incomplete. Please contact us using the details
    in Part 11 to find out more.

 4. The right to be forgotten, i.e. the right to ask us to delete or otherwise
    dispose of any of your personal data that we hold. Please contact us using
    the details in Part 11 to find out more.

 5. The right to restrict (i.e. prevent) the processing of your personal data.

 6. The right to object to us using your personal data for a particular purpose
    or purposes.

 7. The right to withdraw consent. This means that, if we are relying on your
    consent as the legal basis for using your personal data, you are free to
    withdraw that consent at any time.

 8. The right to data portability. This means that, if you have provided
    personal data to us directly, we are using it with your consent or for the
    performance of a contract, and that data is processed using automated means,
    you can ask us for a copy of that personal data to re-use with another
    service or business in many cases.

 9. Rights relating to automated decision-making and profiling. Part 6 explains
    more about how we use your personal data, including automated
    decision-making  and profiling.



For more information about our use of your personal data or exercising your
rights as outlined above, please contact us using the details provided in Part
11.

It is important that your personal data is kept accurate and up-to-date. If any
of the personal data we hold about you changes, please keep us informed as long
as we have that data.

Further information about your rights can also be obtained from the Information
Commissioner’s Office or your local Citizens Advice Bureau.

If you have any cause for complaint about our use of your personal data, you
have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office.
We would welcome the opportunity to resolve your concerns ourselves, however, so
please contact us first, using the details in Part 11.

 

4. What Personal Data Do You Collect and How?

We may collect and hold some or all of the personal data set out in the table

Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003, and you
will always have the opportunity to opt-out.



We will only use your personal data for the purpose(s) for which it was
originally collected unless we reasonably believe that another purpose is
compatible with that or those original purpose(s) and need to use your personal
data for that purpose. If we do use your personal data in this way and you wish
us to explain how the new purpose is compatible with the original, please
contact us using the details in Part 11.



If we need to use your personal data for a purpose that is unrelated to, or
incompatible with, the purpose(s) for which it was originally collected, we will
inform you and explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.



In some circumstances, where permitted or required by law, we may process your
personal data without your knowledge or consent. This will only be done within
the bounds of the Data Protection Legislation and your legal rights.

 

6. How Long Will You Keep My Personal Data?

We will retain your personal information for as long as required to perform the
purposes for which the data was collected, depending on the legal basis for
which that data was obtained and/or whether additional legal/regulatory
obligations require us to retain it.

 

In general terms, this will mean that your personal information will be kept for
the duration of our relationship with you and:

 

the period required by tax and company laws and regulations; and

 

as long as it is necessary for you to be able to bring a claim against us and
for us to be able to defend ourselves against any legal claims. This will
generally be the length of the relationship plus the length of any applicable
statutory limitation period under local laws.

 

 

7. How and Where Do You Store or Transfer My Personal Data?

We will only store your personal data within the European Economic Area (the
“EEA”). The EEA consists of all EU member states, plus Norway, Iceland, and
Liechtenstein. This means that your personal data will be fully protected under
the EU GDPR and/or to equivalent standards by law. Transfers of personal data to
the EEA from the UK are permitted without additional safeguards.

The security of your personal data is essential to us, and to protect your data,
we take a number of important measures, including the following:

 * limiting access to your personal data to those employees, agents,
   contractors, and other third parties with a legitimate need to know and
   ensuring that they are subject to duties of confidentiality;

 * procedures for dealing with data breaches (the accidental or unlawful
   destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of, or access to, your
   personal data) including notifying you and/or the Information Commissioner’s
   Office where we are  legally required to do so.



7. Do You Share My Personal Data?

We will not share any of your personal data with any third parties for any
purposes, subject to the following exceptions.



If we sell, transfer, or merge parts of our business or assets, your personal
data may be transferred to a third party. Any new owner of our business may
continue to use your personal data in the same way(s) that we have used it, as
specified in this Privacy Policy.



In some limited circumstances, we may be legally required to share certain
personal data, which might include yours, if we are involved in legal
proceedings or complying with legal obligations, a court order, or the
instructions of a government authority.



We may sometimes contract with the following third parties to supply services.



Recipient

Activity Carried Out

Sector

Location



Customers with whom we are contracted to provide marketing services and with
whom we have appropriate data sharing agreements in place

Outsourced marketing services

Consulting & Services

The United Kingdom

The United States of America

Countries in the EU or EEA





If any of your personal data is shared with a third party, as described above,
we will take steps to ensure that your personal data is handled safely,
securely, and in accordance with your rights, our obligations, and the third
party’s obligations under the law, as described above in Part 8.

If any personal data is transferred outside of the UK, we will take suitable
steps in order to ensure that your personal data is treated just as safely and
securely as it would be within the UK and under the Data Protection Legislation,
as explained above in Part 8.



If we sell, transfer, or merge parts of our business or assets, your personal
data may be transferred to a third party. Any new owner of our business may
continue to use your personal data in the same way(s) that we have used it, as
specified in this Privacy Policy.



In some limited circumstances, we may be legally required to share certain
personal data, which might include yours, if we are involved in legal
proceedings or complying with legal obligations, a court order, or the
instructions of a government authority.

 

8. How Can I Access My Personal Data?

If you want to know what personal data we have about you, you can ask us for
details of that personal data and for a copy of it (where any such personal data
is held). This is known as a “subject access request”.



All subject access requests should be made in writing and sent to the email or
postal addresses shown in Part 11.



There is not normally any charge for a subject access request. If your request
is ‘manifestly unfounded or excessive’ (for example, if you make repetitive
requests) a fee may be charged to cover our administrative costs in responding.



We will respond to your subject access request within one month of receiving it.
Normally, we aim to provide a complete response, including a copy of your
personal data within that time. In some cases, however, particularly if your
request is more complex, more time may be required up to a maximum of three
months from the date we receive your request. You will be kept fully informed of
our progress.

personal data protection.
