Personal information we collect and how we collect it The personal information we collect and the way in which we collect it are as follows: Personal information you give to us: This is information about you that you give to us by entering information via our website (www.porterbrook.co.uk), social media platforms, and/or corresponding with us by phone, email or otherwise, and is provided entirely voluntarily. This includes information provided when contacting us or making an enquiry to us via our site, subscribing to our services, managing your account online, posting material or requesting further services, and engaging in correspondence with us by phone, email or otherwise. Such personal information may consist of, but is not limited to, your title, name, email address, telephone numbers, details about your job role, and information contained in our correspondence or other communications with you about our business. We may also ask you for information when you report a problem with our site. If you complete any surveys that we request you complete for research purposes, we will collect information in such circumstances as well. The information you give us may consist of your name, job title, address, email address, phone number, enquiry details, and records of any correspondence and responses to any surveys. Personal information we collect about you: We may automatically collect details of transactions you carry out through the site, and your visits to our site, including, but not limited to, traffic data, location data, weblogs and other communication data, and the resources you access. We may also automatically collect technical information, including anonymous data collected by the hosting server for statistical purposes, the Internet protocol (IP) address used to connect your computer or device to the Internet, browser type and version, time zone setting, browser plug-in types and versions, operating system and platform. Please see Cookies for further information. We may also collect any personal information which you allow to be shared that is part of your public profile or third party social network, type and version, time zone setting, browser plug-in types and versions, operating system and platform. How we use your personal information The purposes for which we use your information and the legal basis under data protection laws on which we rely to do this are explained below. Performance of the contract with you or to take steps to enter into it. We may use and process your personal information where we have supplied you (or continue to supply you) with any Porterbrook goods or services, where we have arranged for the supply of another company’s goods or services to you, or where you are in discussions with us about any new product or service. We will use this information in connection with the contract for the supply of goods or services when it is needed to carry out that contract or for you to enter into it. Legitimate interests or that of a third party for the following purposes: for analysis help us understand how our website is used, and to enhance and personalise your experience (including to improve the recommendations we make to you on our website); to correspond or communicate with you; to verify the accuracy of data that we hold about you and create a better understanding of our customers; for network and information security in order for us to take steps to protect your information against loss or damage, theft or unauthorised access; for prevention of fraud and other criminal activities; to comply with a request from you in connection with the exercise of your rights; for assessing the quality of the our service and to provide staff training within the business; for the management of queries, complaints, or claims; and for the establishment and defence of our legal rights. Compliance with a legal obligation. We will use your personal information to comply with our legal obligations: (i) to assist any public authority or criminal investigation body; (ii) to identify you when you contact us; and/or (iii) to verify the accuracy of data we hold about you. Vital interests. Where we have supplied you with any goods, we may use your personal information to contact you if there are any urgent safety notices to communicate to you or where we otherwise reasonably believe that the processing of your personal information will prevent or reduce any potential harm to you. It is in your vital interests for us to use your personal information in this way. Others who may receive or have access to your personal information Our suppliers and service providers We may disclose your information to our third party service providers, agents, subcontractors and other organisations for the purposes of providing services to us or directly to you on our behalf. Such third parties may include cloud service providers (such as hosting and email management), IT providers, advertising and marketing agencies, public relations advisors and administrative services. When we use third party service providers, we only disclose to them any personal information that is necessary for them to provide their service and we have a contract in place that requires them to keep your information secure and not to use it other than in accordance with our specific instructions. Customer satisfaction surveys As customer satisfaction is important to us, we may ask a third party research company to contact you for the sole purpose of gathering general information and specific information relating to us and our goods and services. Other ways we may share your personal information We may transfer your personal information to a third party as part of a sale of some or all of our business and assets to any third party or as part of any business restructuring or reorganisation. We may also transfer your personal information if we’re under a duty to disclose or share it in order to comply with any legal obligation, to detect or report a crime, to enforce or apply the terms of our contracts or to protect the rights, property or safety of our visitors and customers. We will always take steps with the aim of ensuring that your privacy rights continue to be protected. Where we store your personal information All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers which are located within the European Economic Area (EEA). If at any time we transfer your personal information to, or store it in, countries located outside of the EEA (for example, if our hosting services provider changes) we will ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place for that transfer and storage as required by applicable law. This is because some countries outside of the EEA do not have adequate data protection laws equivalent to those in the EEA. If you use our services whilst you are outside the EEA, your information may be transferred outside the EEA in order to provide you with those services. How long we keep your personal information for We will not keep your information for longer than is necessary for the purposes for which we collect it unless we believe that the law or other regulation requires us to preserve it. If you have made an enquiry or contacted us via our website, we will store your information for as long as is reasonably required to deal with your enquiry. If you have a customer account with us, we may retain the personal information linked to this account for as long as your account is active. If your account is dormant for more than 1 year, we’ll send you a reminder, after which we will close your account. Once your account is closed, we will retain your personal information in case of any queries from you or in case you decide to re-activate your account for a period of 2 years from the date your account is closed. If you have contacted us with a complaint or query we will store your personal information for as long as is reasonably required to resolve your complaint or query. We retain technical information obtained via Google Analytics for 26 months from the date it is collected. The only exceptions to the above are where: we may need your personal information to establish, bring or defend legal claims or to comply with a legal or regulatory requirement; the law requires us to hold your personal information for a longer period, or delete it sooner; you exercise your right to have the information erased (where it applies) and we do not need to hold it in connection with any of the reasons permitted or required under the law (see further Erasing your personal information or restricting its processing below); or in limited cases, the law permits us to keep your personal information indefinitely provided we put certain protections in place. When it is no longer necessary to retain your data, we will delete the personal information that we hold about you from our systems. After that time, we may aggregate the data (from which you cannot be identified) and retain it for analytical purposes.

Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your information transmitted to our website and any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your personal information, we put in place reasonable and appropriate controls to ensure that it remains secure against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, or unauthorised access.
