General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

We are serious about security, therefore we will never sell, share or give away your personal information to anyone without your written consent.

Use of your information

We use your information for many purposes, including:

  • To fulfil any contractual agreements between you and us.
  • To send you email notifications and updates.
  • In order to provide third-party goods or services.
  • To comply with legal and regulatory requirements.

  • To contact you occasionally in order to invite you to share your opinions and experiences.
  • In order to contact you in an emergency.

Marketing

From time to time, we may send you important notices or include you on our marketing emails, but you will always have the opportunity to opt out. We will only send you marketing messages where you indicate that you consent (e.g. by “opting-in”) to receiving such messages.

Where we have your consent or are otherwise permitted to do so, we may send you information by email, telephone (including SMS), mail or other methods of communication. To stop receiving marketing communications from us, you can use the unsubscribe link in any such communication, or you can email us with a request to be removed.

We will never pass or sell your personal information on to third parties.

Storage of information

All invoicing and financial details are stored remotely and securely via third-party software. Additional information collected from contact forms and mobile communication is stored securely under password protection. We are committed to ensuring that your information is secure.

Processing your information

Our legal basis for collecting and using the personal information described above will depend on the personal information and the specific context in which we collect it.

However, we will normally collect personal information from you only (i) where we have your consent to do so, (ii) where we need the personal information to fulfil a contract with you, or (iii) where the processing is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your rights. In some cases, we will also have a legal obligation to collect personal information from you.

If we ask you to provide personal information to comply with a legal requirement or to fulfil a contract with you, we will make this clear at the relevant time and advise you whether the provision of your personal information is mandatory or not (as well as the possible consequences if you do not provide your information).

Similarly, if we collect and use your personal information in reliance on our legitimate interests we will make clear to you at the relevant time what those legitimate interests are.

Data retention

We will not store your personal information for longer than is necessary for the purposes of processing and business use. This means after we no longer require to hold your personal information, we will securely destroy your personal information from our records.

In line with GDPR guidance, we will only further retain your personal information for a regulatory, legal or a specific business purpose. Our data retention periods will differ from service to service, dependent on the type of data and the purposes of processing.

Your rights

You have the following data protection rights:

  • You have the right to access your personal data, you can request a copy of the data we are processing/storing on you at any time and we will send you a copy free of charge.
  • You can edit your personal details whenever you wish, you just need to contact us via email or phone. We maintain a procedure in order to help you confirm that your personal information remains correct and up-to-date.
  • In addition, you can object to processing of your personal information, ask us to restrict processing of your personal information or request portability of your personal information.

You may unsubscribe from certain email communications by following the unsubscribe link in the email communication itself. You may also phone or email us in order to request, correct, delete or update your personal information we hold. We will answer every query as promptly as possible.

Similarly, if we have collected and processed your personal information on the basis of your consent, then you can withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawing your consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing we conducted prior to your withdrawal, nor will it affect processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.
