If we have consent to use your personal information, you have the right to remove it at any time. If you want to remove your consent please contact: sar@ixionholdings.com and tell us which service you’re using so we can deal with your request. We only use what we need We’ll only collect and use personal information if we need it to deliver a service or meet a requirement. If we don’t need personal information, we won’t ask you for it. For example, in a survey we may not need your contact details if we are only collecting your survey responses. If we use your personal information for research and analysis, we’ll either always keep you anonymise or pseudonymise it unless you’ve agreed that your personal information can be used for that research. We don’t sell your personal information to anyone else. What you can do with your information The law gives you a number of rights to control what personal information is used by us and how it is used by us. 1 – You can ask for access to the information we hold on you We would normally expect to share with you what we record about you, whenever we assess your needs or provide you with services. However, you also have the right to ask for all the information we have about you and the services you receive from us. When we receive a request from you, we must give you access to everything we’ve recorded about you. However, we can’t let you see any parts of your record which contains: information about other people unless we have consent for this; or information which will cause serious harm to your or someone else’s physical or mental wellbeing; or if we think that giving you the information may stop us from preventing or detecting a crime. This applies to personal information in both paper and electronic records. If you ask us for access to your information then we’ll ask you to provide evidence so that we can verify your identity. If you have any queries about access to your information please contact: sar@ixionholdings.com. 2 – You can ask to change information you think is inaccurate You should let us know if you disagree with something written on your file. We may not always be able to change or remove that information but we’ll correct factual inaccuracies and may include your comments in the record to show that you disagree with it. If you ask us to change the information we hold about you then we’ll ask you to provide evidence so that we can verify your identity. The quickest way to inform us of any inaccuracies is to complete a form which we can provide to you or you can talk to a member of staff, contact: sar@ixionholdings.com. 3 – You can ask to delete information (the right to be forgotten) In some circumstances you can ask for your personal information to be deleted, for example: Where your personal information is no longer needed for the reason why it was collected in the first place Where there is no legal reason for the use of your information Where you have removed your consent for us to use your information (and there is no other legal reason for us to use it) Where deleting the information is a legal requirement. Where your personal information has been shared with others, we’ll do what we can to make sure those using your personal information comply with your request for erasure. We can’t delete your information if: we’re required to have it by law it is used for freedom of expression it is for scientific or historical research, or statistical purposes where it would make information unusable it is necessary for legal claims. 4 – You can ask to limit what we use your personal data for You have the right to ask us to restrict what we use your personal information for where: you have identified inaccurate information, and have told us about it we have no legal reason to use that information but you want us to restrict what we use it for rather than erase the information altogether. When information is restricted it can’t be used other than to securely store the data with your consent or to handle legal claims and protect others, or where it’s for important public interests of the UK. Where restriction of use has been granted, we’ll inform you before we carry on using your personal information. You have the right to ask us to stop using your personal information for any service we provide. You also have the right to unsubscribe from any materials we may send you. However, if you make a request this may cause delays or prevent us delivering services to you. Where possible we’ll seek to comply with your request, but we may need to hold or use information because we are required to by law or by contract. If you wish to contact us with respect to these matters please contact the Data Protection Office on sar@ixionholdings.com. 5 – You can ask to have your information moved to another provider (data portability) You have the right to ask for your personal information to be given back to you or another service provider of your choice in a commonly used format. This is called data portability. However, this only applies if we’re using your personal information with consent (and not if we’re required to by law). You can ask to have any ‘computer-made’ decisions explained to you, or choose not to be the subject of a decision which is based on automated processing. You have the right to question decisions made about you by a computer, unless it’s required for any contract you have entered into, it’s required by law, or you’ve consented to it. You also have the right to object if you are being ‘profiled’. Profiling is where decisions are made about you based on certain things in your personal information, e.g. your health conditions. If Ixion Holdings uses your personal information to profile you, to deliver the most appropriate service to you, you will be informed. If you have concerns regarding automated decision-making, or profiling, please contact the Data Protection Office on sar@ixionholdings.com who’ll be able to advise you about how we are using your information. Who do we share your information with? We use a range of organisations to either store personal information or help deliver our services to you. Where we have these arrangements, there is always an agreement in in place to make sure that the organisation complies with data protection law. We’ll often complete a data protection impact assessment (DPIA) before we share personal information to make sure we protect your privacy and comply with the law. Sometimes we have a legal duty to provide personal information to other organisations. This may be because we need to give that data to the courts. We may also share your personal information when we feel there’s a good reason that’s more important than protecting your privacy. This doesn’t happen often, but we may share your information: to find and stop crime and fraud if there are serious risks to the public, our staff or to other professionals; to protect a child to protect adults who are thought to be at risk, for example if they are frail, confused or cannot understand what is happening to them. In any of these situations the risk must be serious before we can override your right to privacy. If we’re worried about your physical safety, or feel we need to take action to protect you from being harmed in other ways, we’ll discuss this with you and, if possible, get your permission to tell others about your situation before doing so. We may still share your information if we believe the risk to others is serious enough to do so. There may also be rare occasions when the risk to others is so great that we need to share information straight away. If this is the case, we’ll make sure that we record what information we share and our reasons for doing so. We’ll let you know what we’ve done and why if we think it is safe to do so. How do we protect your information? We’ll do what we can to make sure we hold records about you (on paper and electronically) in a secure way, and we’ll only make them available to those who have a right to see them. Examples of our security include: encryption, meaning that information is hidden so that it cannot be read without special knowledge (such as a password). This is done with a secret code or what’s called a ‘cypher’. The hidden information is said to then be ‘encrypted’ controlling access to systems and networks, allowing us to stop people who are not allowed to view your personal information from getting access to it training for our staff so we can make them aware of how to handle information and how and when to report when something goes wrong regular testing of our technology and ways of working, including keeping up to date on the latest security updates (commonly called patches). Where in the world is your information? The majority of personal information is stored on systems in the UK. However, there are some occasions where your information may leave the UK either in order to get to another organisation or if it’s stored in a system inside the EU. We have additional protections on your information if it leaves the UK, ranging from secure ways of transferring data to ensuring we have a robust contract in place with that third party. We’ll take all practical steps to make your personal information is not sent to a country that is not seen as ‘safe’ either by the UK or EU Governments. We will only keep your information for as long as we need it We will retain your personal information only for as long as we need it in order to fulfil the purposes for which we have initially collected it, unless otherwise required by law or contractual requirements. Where can I get advice? If you have any worries or questions about how your personal information is handled please contact our Data Protection Office using the details at the top of this page. For independent advice about data protection, privacy and data sharing issues or if you would like to make a complaint if you think we have done something wrong with the data we hold about you, you can contact the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at: Information Commissioner’s Office Wycliffe House Water Lane Wilmslow Cheshire SK9 5AF Alternatively, you can visit Information Commissioner’s Office website or email casework@ico.org.uk.
