This means that we are responsible for deciding how and why your data is used and for ensuring that your data is handled legally and safely. Where do we collect data from? We collect personal data from a variety of sources and in a variety of ways, including the following: from you when you make a booking or an enquiry either through one of our websites (including our website contact form) or otherwise (for example, by email, telephone or via social media); from you when you enter a raffle or competition (for example, by giving us your business card in a business card raffle); from you when you complete a feedback form, questionnaire or survey; and from other customers if you attend an event that is run or organised by them and at which we are asked to provide catering services. What data do we collect and why? We collect the following personal data about you and use it for the following purposes: When you make a booking or enquiry, we collect your full name, address, email address, telephone number, the company you are from (if you are booking or enquiring on behalf of a company) and details about your booking or enquiry. We will also collect any additional personal data you choose to send to us as part of your booking or enquiry. If you contact us on social media, we will also collect your social media handle. We don't ask you for dietary requirements at booking stage but if you (or any other guests) have any dietary needs, we will need to ask you for these before the event so that we can ensure that we provide appropriate meals. When you enter a raffle or competition, we collect your full name, email address, telephone number and any other personal data which you submit as part of the raffle or competition (for example, your work address if this appears on your business card in a business card raffle). When you complete a customer feedback form, questionnaire or survey, we collect your name, address, email address, telephone number, gender, dietary requirements and any feedback or information you provide about your experience of our catering services. When we obtain information about you from other customers, this information will include your name and any dietary requirements that you have. We sometimes also receive your email address from customers, for example if we are providing catering services at a corporate event that you are attending and it is easiest for us to communicate directly with guests. Some personal data is designated as "special category" personal data. This is personal data which is subject to higher levels of protection because it is more sensitive. This includes information about health, race, religion and political opinions. We don't usually collect any special category data, but we do need to know about any dietary requirements that you or any guests have. Usually this will only tell us what food is required (e.g. "gluten-free" or "no pork") but occasionally it might include some special category data (e.g. "coeliac disease" or "Muslim"). You should note the following points specifically about this type of data: We will only use this data to make sure you are provided with a safe and suitable meal for you. Usually this is only used in conjunction with your name so that we know who needs to be served with a particular meal. If you are providing dietary requirements about yourself or anyone else, where possible you should only tell us the food required and not any information about the reason for the food being required. If you do give us information about the reason for the food being required and this reveals a health issue or your or someone else's religion, you should make sure that you and/or that other person are aware of the fact that we will process this data and happy for us to do so. What do we use your personal data for? We use your personal data for the following purposes: to fulfil bookings, respond to enquiries and correspondence and to provide our catering services to you; to ensure we can provide you with a safe and suitable meal for you; to enable you to participate in raffles and competitions that you enter and to fulfil those raffles/competitions (for example, we use your email address to contact you if you win a prize); to improve our business (for example, we use feedback gathered through feedback forms, questionnaires and surveys to see what people liked and didn't like about our services so that we can act on this feedback); and to communicate with you about your event or an event you are attending. Where we hold your email address, we use this to contact you with information about our services that we think that you will be interested in. We will ask you for your consent and/or give you an opportunity to opt out of receiving such communications when we collect your information. You can change your mind at any time and object to receiving such communications by clicking the "Unsubscribe" link in each email. We also use telephone numbers that we hold to market and promote our services by telephone. We will screen against the Telephone Preference Service and Corporate Telephone Preference Service before we do this and you can let us know at any time that you don't want to receive further calls by telling the person who calls you. What is our legal basis for using your personal data? Where we process your personal data for the purposes of fulfilling a booking you have made and corresponding with you in relation to that booking, we do this on the basis that it is necessary to perform our contract with you to provide our services. Similarly, if you make an enquiry about a booking and we process your personal data in order to communicate with you regarding your enquiry, we do this on the basis that it is necessary to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract with you. For all other purposes listed above, we process your personal data on the basis that it is in our legitimate interests to do so. The legitimate interests that we rely on are as follows: We have a legitimate interest in responding to any queries, comments and correspondence that you send to us so that we can ensure we provide a high standard of service and a good impression of our business to anyone who gets in touch with us. We have a legitimate interest in running raffles and competitions in order to promote our business. We have a legitimate interest in collecting customer feedback so that we can continue to improve our business. We need to know guests' dietary requirements as we have a legitimate interest in ensuring appropriate meals are provided for all guests. We have a legitimate interest in using personal data for marketing purposes so that we can promote our business. You have a legal right to object to us using your personal data where we process your data on the basis of our legitimate interests. To object to marketing, you can respond to our emails and confirm “Unsubscribe” or tell the Elior representative making a marketing call to you or email gdpr.enquiry@elior.co.uk. To object to all other uses set out above, you can either choose not to provide us with the data in the first place (e.g. by not entering a competition or completing a feedback form anonymously) or you can email gdpr.enquiry@elior.co.uk. We may not always be required to stop processing your data if we have compelling legitimate reasons to continue to do so. Who do we share your personal data with?
