If you are a visitor from the European Economic Area, our legal basis for collecting and using the Personal Data as described above will depend on the Personal Data concerned and the specific context in which we collect it.

However, we will generally collect Personal Data from you only where we have your consent to do so, or where the processing is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your data protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms.

If we ask you to provide Personal Data to comply with a legal requirement or for contacting purposes, we will make this clear at the relevant time and advise you whether or not the provision of your Personal Data is mandatory (as well as of the possible consequences of not providing your Personal Data).

request access to your Personal Data (commonly known as a data subject access request). This enables you to receive a copy of the Personal Data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it;

object to processing of your Personal Data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (of our own or of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms.

Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you; and

However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.

DATA SECURITY

We will always take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect Personal Data against accidental or unlawful destruction or accidental loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure or access, in particular where the processing involves the transmission of data over a network, and against all other unlawful forms of processing (including taking reasonable steps to ensure the reliability of employees who have access to personal information).

We have put in place internal procedures to deal with any suspected data security breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a suspected breach where we are legally required to do so.



DATA RETENTION

We will not keep Personal Data in a form which permits identification of individuals for longer than is necessary for the purpose or purposes for which they were collected. We will take all reasonable steps to destroy, or erase from our systems, all data which is no longer required. We will comply with our data retention policy. 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 Personal Data, the purposes for which we process information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

We will only keep Personal Data for as long as is necessary for the purpose or purposes for which that Personal Data are processed; and we will let anyone about whom we process data know how long that is or the criteria that go into deciding how long that is.

We may sometimes anonymise your Personal Data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.
