We generally provide a business-to-business service directed to and intended for use only by those who are 18 years of age or over. We do not target the our services at children, and we do not knowingly collect any personal data from any person under 16 years of age.
You have given clear consent for us to process your personal data for a specific purpose.
If you have previously given consent to our processing your data, you can freely withdraw such consent at any time. You can do this by updating preferences in your user profile, or emailing us at [email protected].
If you do withdraw your consent, and if we do not have another legal basis for processing your data, then we will stop processing your personal data. If we do have another legal basis for processing your data, then we may continue to do so subject to your legal rights.
Processing your data is necessary for a contract you have with us, or because we have asked you to take specific steps before entering into that contract.
The law otherwise permits or requires it.
Processing your data is necessary for our legitimate interests or the legitimate interests of a third party, provided those interests are not outweighed by your rights and interests. These legitimate interests are:
In each case, these legitimate interests are only valid if they are not outweighed by your rights and interests.
This section explains how we will ensure that you only receive communications that you wish to receive
We can only use your personal data to send you marketing messages if we have either your consent or it is a ‘legitimate interest’. Such as where you are an existing customer and have not opted out of marketing.
The personal data we hold about you is made up of what you tell us and the data we collect about you when you use our services, or data provided to us from third parties we work with. We study this to form a view on what we think you may want or need, or what may be of interest to you. This is how we decide which products, services and offers may be relevant for you.
By consenting to receive additional communications (by post, telephone, or email) from us and any named third parties that feature at the point of obtaining consent in respect of such data, we will process your personal data in accordance with this privacy policy.
If you have provided your consent to receive marketing communications from us and you change your mind, you can change your preferences and unsubscribe at any time by unsubscribing from the relevant communication channel or by contacting us at [email protected]. If you choose not to receive this information, we will be unable to keep you informed of new products, services and promotions that may interest you.
We periodically appoint digital marketing agents to conduct marketing activity on our behalf, such activity may result in the compliant processing of personal information. Our appointed data processors are detailed below, under the heading “Third parties who process your data”.
We may send you communications such as those which relate to any service updates (e.g. appointment confirmations) or provide customer satisfaction surveys. We consider that we can lawfully send these communications to you as we have a legitimate interest to do so, namely to effectively provide you with the best service we can and to grow our business.
If you choose to do this, you can continue to use the website and browse its pages, but we will not be able to process transactions, allow you to log in or provide you with any training without personal data.
You can block cookies by activating a setting on your browser allowing you to refuse cookies. You can also delete cookies through your browser settings. If you turn off cookies, you can continue to use the website and browse its pages, but you will not be able to log in the Platform and certain services will not work effectively.
We will inform you (before collecting your data) if we intend to use your data for marketing and if third parties are involved. You can opt out from marketing by using the link in the email, by updating your marketing preferences of your user profile, or emailing us at [email protected].
You can exercise your rights by sending us an email at [email protected].
This includes the right to ask us supplementary information about:
We will provide you with the data within one month of your request, unless doing so would adversely affect the rights and freedoms of other (e.g. another person’s confidentiality or intellectual property rights). We’ll tell you if we can’t meet your request for that reason.
You can update much of your personal data from your Profile page if you have a user account, or emailing us at [email protected].
We may use your data to determine whether we should let you know information that might be relevant to you (for example, tailoring emails to you based on your behaviour). Otherwise, the only circumstances in which we will do this is to provide the Platform service to you.
We will give you a copy of your data in CSV or JSON so that you can provide it to another service. If you ask us and it is technically possible, we will directly transfer the data to the other service for you. We will not do so to the extent that this involves disclosing data about any other individual.
You can do this by asking us to erase any personal data we hold about you, if it is no longer necessary for us to hold the data for purposes of your use of the Platform.
Please tell us first, so we have a chance to address your concerns. If we fail in this, you can address any complaint to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office, either by calling their helpline or as directed on their website at www.ico.org.uk.
We have physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the data we collect and have been awarded a Cyber Essentials certificate from the UK National Cyber Security Centre. We limit access to your personal data to those who have a genuine business need to know it. Those processing your data will do so only in an authorised manner and are subject to a duty of confidentiality.
If you want detailed information from Get Safe Online on how to protect your data and your computers and devices against fraud, identity theft, viruses and many other online problems, please visit www.getsafeonline.org. Get Safe Online is supported by HM Government and leading businesses.
The personal data we collect is processed at our offices in the UK and in any data processing facilities operated by the third parties identified below.
We will keep your personal data for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which it was obtained. The criteria for determining the duration for which we will retain your personal data is as follows:
During the periods specified in paragraph 1(iii) above, we will restrict our processing of your personal data to the storage of, and maintaining the security of, that data, except to the extent that data needs to be reviewed in connection with any legal claim or obligation under applicable law.
After this period your personal data will be anonymised so that you are no longer identified or identifiable from such information, or securely deleted/destroyed.
We may retain personal data about you for statistical purposes. Where data is retained for statistical purposes it will always be anonymised, meaning that you will not be identifiable from that data.
Tech businesses often use third parties to help them host their application, communicate with customers, power their emails etc. We partner with third parties who we believe are the best in their field at what they do. Such activity may result in the compliant processing of personal information.
When we do this, sometimes it is necessary for us to share your data with them in order to get these services to work well. Your data is shared only when strictly necessary and according to the safeguards and good practices detailed in this Privacy Policy.
When you visit or log in to our website, cookies and similar technologies may be used by our online data partners or vendors to associate these activities with other personal information they or others have about you, including by association with your email or home address. We (or service providers on our behalf) may then send communications and marketing to these email or home addresses. You may opt out of receiving this advertising by visiting https://app.retention.com/optout
Your personal data may be stored and processed in any country where we engage service providers, including outside the EEA. Whilst these counties will have data protection rules that differ from the EEA, we will take measures to ensure that any such transfers comply with applicable data protection laws and that your personal data remains protected to the standards described in this privacy policy.
If you would like further information about who we share your personal data with, please contact us.
