SHARING YOUR DATA WITH TRUSTED THIRD PARTIES

We may share your personal data with trusted third parties who set cookies on our Website, or such third parties may collect personal data directly from you. These third parties are listed in our Cookies Policy which can be accessed by clicking the “Privacy” button on the bottom left of every page of our Website.

We may be required to share your personal data with the police, administrative authorities (such as HMRC) or other enforcement, regulatory or Government bodies, where we are legally obliged to do so.

INTERNATIONAL TRANSFER OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA

Some of these trusted third parties are located in countries outside of the UK and EU, such as the United States.

As a result, the personal data that we or the trusted third parties collect from you may be transferred to or accessed from outside the UK and EU.

If we do this, we have procedures in place to ensure your data receives the necessary protections. Any transfer of your personal data will follow applicable laws, and we will treat the information according to the principles set out in this Privacy Policy.

If you would like further information, please contact us using the details provided at the end of this Privacy Policy.

HOW LONG WILL WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

We will only keep your personal data for as long as we need to for the reason we collected it, as set out in this Privacy Policy. Our Cookies Policy (which can be found by clicking the “Privacy” button on the bottom left of every page of our Website) confirms the timespan of each cookie.

We may also keep hold of some of your personal data if we are required to do so for legal purposes, for example, to meet our legal or regulatory requirements or to prevent fraud and abuse.

YOUR RIGHTS

You have the following rights in relation to the personal information we hold about you, to request:

• access to the personal data we hold about you (commonly known as a “data subject access request”) including a copy of it.
• the correction of the personal information that we hold about you if it is incomplete or inaccurate;
• the deletion or removal of personal data we hold about you where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it or where you have exercised your right to object to processing (see below);
• for our processing of your personal information to be restricted in certain circumstances, for example if you want to establish its accuracy or the reason for processing it;
• to obtain a copy of the personal information you’ve provided us with and to reuse it elsewhere or to ask us to transfer it to a third party of your choice; and
• to withdraw any consent you have provided to our use of your personal data. Where you withdraw consent, we will stop using your data for the specific purpose, unless we have an alternative legal basis to use it.

We may ask you for proof of your identity before dealing with your request, as a security measure to protect your data.

Where we are processing your personal data on the basis of our legitimate interests, you can ask us to stop processing it and we must do so unless we believe we have an overriding legitimate reason to continue processing your personal data.

If you are dissatisfied with how we have handled your personal data, you have the right to make a complaint to your data protection regulator. In the UK, this is the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO). You can make a complaint to the ICO by calling their helpline on 0303 123 1113 or on their website at www.ico.org.uk/concerns. We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns before you approach the ICO or, (if you’re based outside of the UK, your data protection regulator), so please do contact us in the first instance.
