OTHERS WHO MAY RECEIVE OR HAVE ACCESS TO YOUR PERSONAL
DATA
Our suppliers and
service providers
We may disclose your
information to our third party service providers,
agents, subcontractors and other organisations for the purposes of providing
services to us or directly to you on our behalf. Such third parties may include
cloud service providers (such as hosting and email management), advertising
agencies and administrative services.
When we use third party
service providers, we only disclose to them any personal data that is necessary
for them to provide their service and we have a contract in place that requires
them to keep your information secure and not to use it other than in accordance
with our specific instructions.
Credit/debit card
payment processors
When you purchase any
products or services online, your credit/debit card payment is processed by a third party payment processor, who specialises in the secure
online capture and processing of credit/debit card transactions. If you have
any questions regarding secure transactions, please contact us using the
details at the end of this policy.
Other ways we may
share your personal data
We may transfer your personal
data to a third party as part of a sale of some or all of
our business and assets to any third party or as part of any business
restructuring or reorganisation. We may also transfer your personal data if
we’re under a duty to disclose or share it in order to
comply with any legal obligation, to detect or report a crime, to enforce or
apply the terms of our contracts or to protect the rights, property or safety
of our visitors and customers. We will always take steps with the aim of
ensuring that your privacy rights continue to be protected.
Where you ask us to
share your personal data with a third party (e.g. your insurer), we will not be
responsible for how that third party uses your personal data.
We will never sell your
personal data to a third party and only share it will third parties (as
described above) when it is necessary for us to do so in
order to provide our service to you.
WHERE WE STORE YOUR PERSONAL DATA
All information you provide to us is stored on our secure
servers which are located within the United Kingdom (UK) and European Economic
Area (EEA).
If at any time we transfer your personal data to, or store
it in, countries located outside of the UK and EEA (for example, if our hosting
services provider changes) we will ensure that appropriate safeguards are in
place for that transfer and storage as required by applicable law. This is
because some countries outside of the UK and EEA do not have data protection
laws equivalent to those in the UK and EEA.
HOW LONG WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR
If we collect your personal data, the length of time
we retain it is determined by a number of factors
including the purpose for which we use that information and our obligations
under other laws. We do not retain personal data in an identifiable format for
longer than is necessary. To determine the
appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature
and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from
unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we
process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through
other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other
requirements.
We may need your personal
data to establish, bring or defend legal claims. For this purpose, we may retain your personal
data for 7 years after the date it is no longer needed by us for any of the
purposes listed under How we use your personal data above. The only exceptions to this are where:
·
we may delete
your personal data sooner if we believe it necessary;
·
the law requires
us to hold your personal data for a longer period, or delete it sooner;
SECURITY AND LINKS TO OTHER SITES
Unfortunately, the
transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although
we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the
security of your information transmitted to our website and any transmission is
at your own risk. Once we have received your personal data, we put in place
reasonable and appropriate controls to ensure that it remains secure against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, or
unauthorised access.
Where we have given (or
where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access an account, you
are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share
your password with anyone.
Our website may contain
links to other websites run by other organisations. This policy does not apply
to those other websites‚ so we encourage you to read their privacy statements.
We cannot be responsible for the privacy policies and practices of other
websites even if you access them using links that we provide. In addition, if
you linked to our website from a third party website,
we cannot be responsible for the privacy policies and practices of the owners
and operators of that third party website and recommend that you check the
policy of that third party website.

MARKETING
We may collect your preferences to receive marketing
information directly from us by email, SMS, automated calls or other means in
the following ways:
We may contact you with targeted advertising delivered
online through social media and platforms operated by other companies, by
phone, mail or any other medium by using your personal data,
or use your personal data to tailor marketing to improve its relevance
to you, unless you object.
We will only share your information with our third party partners for them to contact you with marketing
information about their products and services where you have indicated that you
would like us to do so. Please use the link on the page requesting your consent
to find out more about these third parties. Once shared, the relevant third
party’s privacy policy will apply to their processing of your personal data,
not ours. If you’d like to opt-out of receiving marketing from a third party
after providing your consent, you can do so at any time by contacting the
relevant third party directly.
If you do not complete a purchase and have not indicated
that you would prefer otherwise, we may send a reminder to you about your
incomplete purchase.
From time to time, we may ask you to refresh your marketing
preferences by asking you to confirm that you consent to continue receiving
marketing information from us.
You have the right to opt-out of our use of your personal
data to provide marketing to you in any of the ways mentioned above. Please see
Withdrawing your Consent and Objecting to our use of your personal
data and automated decisions made about you above for further details on
how you can do this.
YOUR RIGHTS
Under certain circumstances, you
have a number of rights in relation to your personal
data under data protection law. In relation to certain rights, we may ask you
for information to confirm your identity and, where applicable, to help us to
search for your personal data. Except in rare cases, we will respond to you
within one month from either (i) the date that we
have confirmed your identity or (ii) where we do not need to do this because we
already have this information, from the date we received your request.
·
Accessing your personal data
You have the right to
ask for a copy of the information that we hold about you by emailing or writing
to us at the address at the end of this policy. No fee is payable
and we will provide any and all information in response to your request free of
charge unless your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive in
which case we may charge a reasonable fee. Alternatively, we could refuse to
comply with your request in these circumstances. We may not provide you with a
copy of your personal data if this concerns other individuals or we have
another lawful reason to withhold that information.
We try to respond to
all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it could take us longer
than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and
keep you updated.
You will be required to
provide evidence of your identity in order to receive
your personal data or have your personal data removed. This is a security
measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no
right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information
in relation to your request to speed up our response.
·
Correcting and updating your personal data
The accuracy of your
information is important to us and we are committed to
making it easy for you to review and correct the information that we hold about
you.
In the meantime, if you
change your name or address/email address, or you discover that any of the
other information we hold is inaccurate or out of date, please let us know by
contacting us in any of the details described at the end of this policy.
·
Withdrawing your consent
Where we rely on your
consent as the legal basis for processing your personal data, as set out under How
we use your personal data, you may withdraw your consent at any time by
contacting us using the details at the end of this policy. If you would like to withdraw your consent to
receiving any direct marketing to which you previously opted-in, you can do so
using our unsubscribe tool. If you withdraw your consent, our use of your personal
data before you withdraw is still lawful.
·
Objecting to our use of your personal data and automated
decisions made about you
Where we rely on your legitimate business interests as the legal basis for
processing your personal data for any purpose(s), as set out under How we
use your personal data, you may object to us using your personal data for
these purposes by emailing or writing to us at the address at the end of this
policy. Except for the purposes for which we are sure we can continue to
process your personal data, we will temporarily stop
processing your personal data in line with your objection until we have
investigated the matter. If we agree that your objection is justified in
accordance with your rights under data protection laws, we will permanently
stop using your data for those purposes. Otherwise we
will provide you with our justification as to why we need to continue using
your data.
You
may object to us using your personal data for direct marketing purposes and we
will automatically comply with your request. If you would like to do so, please
use our unsubscribe tool.
If
we carry out any automated processing, you may also contest a decision made
about you based on automated processing by contacting us on the details at the
end of this policy.
·
Erasing your personal data or restricting its processing
In
certain circumstances, you may ask for your personal data to be removed from
our systems by emailing or writing to us at the address at the end of this
policy. Unless there is a reason that the law allows us to use your personal
data for longer, we will make reasonable efforts to comply with your request.
You
may also ask us to restrict processing your personal data where you believe it
is unlawful for us to do so, you have objected to its use and our investigation
is pending or you require us to keep it in connection with legal
proceedings. In these situations
we may only process your personal data whilst its processing is restricted if
we have your consent or are legally permitted to do so, for example for storage
purposes, to protect the rights of another individual or company or in
connection with legal proceedings.
·
Transferring your personal data in a structured data file
You can ask us to send your personal data directly to
another service provider, and we will do so if this is technically possible. We
may not provide you with a copy of your personal data if this concerns other
individuals or we have another lawful reason to withhold that information.
·
Complaining to the UK data protection regulator
You have the right to make a complaint at any time to the
Information Commissioner's Office (the “ICO”), the UK regulator for data
protection issues (www.ico.org.uk). We would, however, appreciate the chance to
deal with your concerns before you approach the ICO so please contact us in the
first instance. The ICO’s address: Information Commissioner’s Office, Wycliffe
House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire SK9 5AF. Helpline number: 0303 123 1113
