Uses Made of Your Information By law we can only process your information if we can demonstrate the lawful grounds we have for doing so. Currently there are six potential lawful grounds for processing personal information, namely we have your consent; it is necessary for performance of a contract to which you are a party or to take steps at your request prior to entering into such contract; it is necessary for our compliance with a legal obligation; it is in the public interest; it is necessary to protect your vital interests; or that it is in our legitimate interest to do so but only where that interest does not override your interests or your fundamental rights and freedom. If none of these grounds apply or ceases to apply we must cease processing your personal information immediately. We may use personal information held about you in the following ways: – Activity or purpose of processing Type of Data processed What is our Legal Ground for doing this? Registering you as a client or as a service user or as a guarantor for a service user Your identity and contact details Performance of a contract Legal Obligation Maintaining our relationship with you Your identity and contact and profile details Performance of contract Legal Obligation Legitimate Interest i.e. to keep our records updated and identifying how you use our services Ensuring that content from our website is relevant to you and is presented in the most effective manner for you Your identity, contact, profile and technical details Legitimate Interest i.e. to review the services we supply to you and to inform our overall marketing strategy Processing or delivering our services Your identity, contact, financial and transaction details Performance of a contract Legal Obligation Payment for Services Your identity, contact, financial and transaction details Performance of a contract Administration of our website and business (including webhosting and support) Your identity, contact and technical data Legal Obligation Legitimate interest i.e. running business, ensuring security and performance of the website, admin and support, monitoring for viruses or malicious software We will only retain your personal information for as long as is necessary in line with the purposes for which it was originally requested or collected or where we are required to do so for some legal or reporting purpose.

This means that we will be required to keep some basic client details for that purpose even although our relationship with you may be at an end. However, it should be noted that the requirement is basic client details and therefore it is not legitimate to also keep information such as your preferences for that period of time.

The law provides that transfers of personal data outside of the EEA is only permitted where that country has adequate safeguards in place for the protection of personal data.

Where we use cloud-based services or third-party providers of such services and in either or both circumstances the data is processed outside of the EEA that will be regarded as an overseas transfer. Before instigating an overseas transfer, we will ensure that the recipient country and/or processor has security standards at least equivalent to our own and in particular one of the following permitted safeguards applies: – The country in question is deemed to have adequate safeguards in place as determined by the European Commission; or There is a contract or code of conduct in place which has been approved by the European Commission which gives your personal information the same protection it would have had if it was retained within the EEA; or If the overseas transfer is to the United States, then the transferee is a signatory to the EU-US privacy Shield as all Privacy Shield signatories are obliged to give your personal information the same degree of protection it would have had if it was retained within the EEA. If none of these safeguards exist, then we may seek your explicit consent for an overseas transfer. In line with your rights as an individual you are free to withdraw this consent at any time.
