Lawful Basis for Processing

Under GDPR, we must have a lawful basis for processing your personal data. We rely on the following bases:

  • Consent: Where you have given specific consent for us to process your data, such as when you submit an enquiry form or agree to receive communications
  • Contract: Where processing is necessary to perform a contract with you or to take pre-contractual steps at your request
  • Legitimate interests: Where processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests, provided these do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms
  • Legal obligation: Where we need to process your data to comply with a legal requirement

Your Rights Under GDPR

As a data subject, you have the following rights:

Right to be Informed

You have the right to know how your personal data is being collected and used. Our Privacy Policy provides this information in detail.

Right of Access

You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. This is known as a Subject Access Request (SAR). We will respond within one month of receiving your request.

Right to Rectification

If you believe the personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request correction.

Right to Erasure

Also known as the "right to be forgotten", you can request deletion of your personal data in certain circumstances, such as when the data is no longer necessary for its original purpose.

Right to Restrict Processing

You can request that we limit how we use your data while a concern is being investigated.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used format and to transfer it to another controller where technically feasible.

Right to Object

You can object to certain types of processing, including processing for direct marketing purposes.

Rights Related to Automated Decision-Making

You have rights in relation to automated decision-making and profiling. We do not currently use automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects.

Exercising Your Rights

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details above. We may need to verify your identity before processing your request. We aim to respond to all legitimate requests within one month, though this may be extended in complex cases.

There is generally no fee for exercising your rights, though we may charge a reasonable fee for manifestly unfounded or excessive requests.

Data Security Measures

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, including:

  • Secure storage of electronic and physical records
  • Access controls limiting who can view personal data
  • Regular review of our data handling practices
  • Staff awareness of data protection responsibilities

Data Breach Procedures

In the event of a personal data breach that poses a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify the Information Commissioner's Office within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach. If the breach is likely to result in a high risk to you, we will also notify you directly without undue delay.

International Transfers

We primarily store and process data within the United Kingdom. If we need to transfer data outside the UK, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place in accordance with data protection law.

Complaints

If you are unhappy with how we have handled your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO):

Information Commissioner's Office
Wycliffe House, Water Lane
Wilmslow, Cheshire SK9 5AF
Website: ico.org.uk

We would appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns before you approach the ICO, so please contact us in the first instance.
