  4. LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

    1. We will only process your personal information where we have a legal basis to do so. The legal basis will depend on the purposes for which we have collected, and use, your personal information. In almost every case the legal basis will be one of the following: 

      1. Performance of your contract with us and the provision of our services and/or products to you.

      2. Your consent (where we request it).

      3. Our legitimate interests or the legitimate interests of a third party (where appropriate).

      4. Where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.

    2. Where we use your information for our legitimate interests (or that of a third party), we make sure that we take into account any potential impact that such use may have on you. Our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) do not automatically override yours and we will not use your information if we believe your interests should override ours, unless we have other grounds to do so (such as your consent or a legal obligation). 

  5. SPECIAL CATEGORIES OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

We do not collect any “special categories” of personal data about you (this includes details about your race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, sex life, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union membership, information about your health and genetic and biometric data). Nor do we collect any information about criminal convictions and offences. Special categories of personal information require higher levels of protection. We need to have further justification for collecting, storing and using this type of personal information.

  1. WHERE WE STORE YOUR PERSONAL DATA 

    1. The personal information that we collect may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom (UK), including countries, which have less strict, or no data protection laws, when compared to those in Europe. 

    2. Whenever we transfer your information as described in paragraph 8.1 above, we will take steps which are reasonably necessary to ensure that adequate safeguards are in place to protect your personal information and to make sure it is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy notice. In these cases, we rely on approved data transfer mechanisms to ensure your information is subject to adequate safeguards in the recipient country. If you are located in the EEA or the UK, you may contact us for a copy of the safeguards which we have put in place to protect your personal information and privacy rights in these circumstances. 

  2. PROTECTION OF YOUR INFORMATION, SECURITY AND PASSWORDS

    1. We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally destroyed, lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way. We also take steps to ensure that we retain your personal information for only as long as it is necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, taking into account the amount, nature and sensitivity of the data.

    2. Unfortunately, the transmission of information using the internet is not completely secure. Although we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of data transmitted to our Website.

  3. THIRD PARTY WEBSITES

    1. The Website may contain advertisements and links to websites that are operated by third parties including our affiliates. We do not control and accept no liability or responsibility for those advertisements, websites or feeds and this Privacy Policy does not apply to those advertisements or websites. Please consult the terms and conditions and privacy policy of the third party responsible for such advertisements or websites to find out how they collect and use your personal information and to establish what they may use your personal information for. 

    2. We may receive some of the information that you submit to any third party website that you access via the Website. Both we and the owner or operator of that third party website will be data controllers in respect of any such information.  

  4. YOUR RIGHTS (INCLUDING RIGHT TO ACCESS YOUR INFORMATION)

    1. In some situations, you can ask for access to your personal data, correct your data, delete your data, or object to our use of your data. If you wish to exercise any of those rights, please contact us using the contact details set out at the top of this Privacy Policy.

    2. Subject to certain legal conditions, you have a number of rights in respect of the personal information we hold about you. These include:

      5. Objection: you can object to our processing of your personal information where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground. You can also object to our use of your personal information for direct marketing purposes;

      6. Portability: In certain circumstances, you can ask us to provide you or a third party with some of the personal information that we hold about you in a structured, commonly used, electronic form;

    3. Exercising your rights

      1. If you wish to exercise your rights, please contact us using the contact details set out at the top of this Privacy Policy. You will not have to pay a fee to exercise the above rights, however, we reserve the right to charge you a reasonable administrative fee for any manifestly unfounded or excessive requests concerning your access to your information.

      2. Please also note that we may ask for proof of your identity (such as a copy of your driving licence – please do not send original documents). This is a security measure to ensure that we do not disclose personal information 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.

      3. We will try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Sometimes it may take us longer if your request is complex or you have made several requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated. 

      4. Please also be aware that not all of those rights are absolute and there may be circumstances in which we will not fully comply with your request because of a specified legal ground or exemption.  

    4. Right to lodge a complaint: You have the right to make a complaint at any time to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection issues (www.ico.org.uk), as well as the relevant authority in your country of work or residence, if you do not believe that we have handled your request in an appropriate manner. We would appreciate the opportunity to deal with your concerns before you complain to the ICO/the relevant authority – you can contact us as follows:
