We collect, use and store personal information for our legitimate business interests, the legitimate interests of our clients and their customers and prospective customers, and so that we can:

  • deliver the services we provide to our clients
  • understand the needs and requirements of our clients and their customers and prospective customers
  • maintain contact to discuss our services for our clients and customers
  • comply with regulatory and legal requirements
  • Handle complaints

What sort of personal information do we collect?

Personal information is anything that can identify a living person. The information we collect for our clients may include a person’s:

  • name;
  • contact Information such as email addresses and telephone numbers;

in each case, in accordance with this privacy policy.

Special types of information

Information about racial and ethnic origin and medical records is known as “special category data” which needs special protection.  If we collect special category data about you for our client, it will only be used for purposes you have agreed to.

Do you share my personal information with anyone else?

We only share personal information with our clients and other organisations if we are instructed to do so by a client with consent from the customer. 

The police and other law enforcement authorities can ask for personal information to detect or prevent crime or to comply with legal obligations.  If they ask, we have to give the information.

How long do we keep personal information?

We will only keep the information for as long as we need to use it for the purposes it was given to us or as required by law or regulation.  When we no longer need to keep your information we will securely and confidentially destroy it.

Keeping Data secure

We will use technical and organisational measures to safeguard your Data, for example:

  • access to your account is controlled by a password and a user name that is unique to you.
  • we store your Data on secure servers.
Do we send personal information outside the UK and the European Economic Area?

We do not currently send personal information we hold outside the UK or the European Economic Area, but, if we ever did, we would have a contract in place to make sure that the information is protected when we give it to businesses and organisations in countries that do not provide the same level of personal information protection as the UK.

Can you tell us to stop using your personal information?

If the only reason we hold certain information about you is because you have agreed we can, you can tell us to stop using all or part of it at any time.
