    We may have to share your personal data with the parties set out below:

    • Service providers who provide IT and system administration services.

    We require all third parties to whom we transfer your data to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We only allow such third parties to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.

    We do not transfer your personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA).

    Data Security

    We have put in place security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, altered, disclosed, or accessed without authorisation. We also allow access to your personal data only to those employees and partners who have a business need to know such data. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they must keep it confidential.

    We use WordPress which provides a Website Content Management platform with features to help us meet global data protection and compliance obligations.

    We do not offer user registrations or comments, but we do collect data you have provided us with via contact forms.

    We also track some visitor data such as IP address using Web analytics software Google Analytics to help us provide you with a website better optimised for performance.

    We use [Office 365 / Mail / other email programmes] for our email system and have setup Multi-Factor Authentication to provide extra security.

    We have procedures in place to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach if we are legally required to.

    Data Retention

    We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including contacting you to arrange an appointment or for recruitment purposes.

    When deciding what the correct time is to keep the data for we look at its amount, nature and sensitivity, potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure, the processing purposes, if these can be achieved by other means and legal requirements.

    For tax purposes the law requires us to keep basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial and Transaction Data) for six years after they stop being customers.

    In some circumstances we may anonymise your personal data for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

    Your rights

    The data that we keep about you is your data and we ensure that we keep it confidential and that it is used appropriately.

    You have the following rights when it comes to your data:

    • You have the right to request a copy of all of the data we keep about you.
    • You have the right to ask us to correct any data we have which you believe to be inaccurate.
    • You have the right to request that we erase any of your personal data which is no longer necessary for the purpose we originally collected it for.
    • You may also request that we restrict processing if we no longer require your personal data for the purpose we originally collected it for, but you do not wish for it to be erased.
    • You can ask for your data to be erased if we have asked for your consent to process your data. You can withdraw consent at any time – to do this, please express this in an email to: [email protected]
    • If we are processing your data as part of our legitimate interests as an organisation or in order to complete a task in the public interest, you have the right to object to that processing. We will restrict all processing of this data while we look into your objection.

    Under data protection laws you have rights in relation to your personal data that include the right to request access, correction, erasure, restriction, transfer, to object to processing, to portability of data and (where the lawful ground of processing is consent) to withdraw consent.

    You can see more about these rights at: https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/guide-to-the-general-data-protection-regulation-gdpr/individual-rights/ If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please email us at [email protected]

    You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive or refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

    We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

    We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. You will be notified accordingly.

    If you are not happy with any aspect of how we collect and use your data, you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection issues (www.ico.org.uk). We should be grateful if you would contact us first if you do have a complaint so that we can try to resolve it for you.
