We may apply different retention periods where it is appropriate and proportionate under data protection laws to do so. As examples this could include situations where:

•            There is in ongoing legal requirement to retain data;

•            There is an ongoing contractual requirement to retain data;

•            There is an ongoing request under UK data protection laws in respect of the data;

•            We have determined that is appropriate and proportionate to delete the data earlier than the above retention periods;

If you would like further information regarding the periods for which your personal information will be stored, please get in touch using the Contact Us details provided in this notice.

Your information rights

Data protection law gives you legal rights in relation to your data. We have detailed these below and provide a short summary of our approach to each.

In some cases exercising one or more of these rights may result in us no longer being able to provide a product or service to you. Where this is the case we will inform you and give you the choice of exercising the right or continuing the product or service.

You should also be aware that we may not be able to agree to a request to exercise a right (for example when your request would negatively impact another individual, or the law requires that we do not). If this is the case we will always inform you of our decision and the reason why we have not been able to agree to it.

We will aim to respond to all valid requests within one month. We may take longer to respond if your request is particularly complex or it relates to a particularly large volume of information. If we believe your request is likely to take over one month we will engage with you to make you aware of this.

We may ask you for proof of identity so that we can satisfy ourselves that your information is only ever released to the right person. We may also ask for clarification on your request to better understand what information you wish to receive or clarify any concerns you have.

  1. The right to access your personal information

You have the right to access a copy of the personal information we hold about you and certain details of how we use it.

There will not usually be a charge for dealing with these requests, although we may charge a reasonable fee to cover our administrative costs if:

  • Your request is manifestly unfounded or excessive
  • You request further additional copies of your data
  • The right to rectification

We take reasonable steps to ensure that the personal information we hold about you is accurate and up to date. However, if you do not believe this is the case, you can ask us to update or amend it.

  • The right to erasure

In certain circumstances, you may ask us to erase your personal information.

  • The right to restriction of processing

In certain circumstances, you are entitled to ask us to stop using your personal information.

  • The right to data portability

In certain circumstances, you have the right to ask that the personal information you have provided is transferred to another third party of your choice. All requests to move information in this way are reviewed on a case-by-case basis, to assess whether they meet the UK GDPR criteria for data portability.

  • The right to object

You may object where you have a reason based on your circumstances and we are using your personal information for our legitimate interests.  You should be aware that, as long as we can demonstrate a compelling reason to use your personal information, we may continue to do so.

  • The right to withdraw consent

For certain uses of your personal information, we will ask for your consent. Where we do this, you have the right to withdraw your consent to further use of your personal information.

  • The right to be informed about communications following a request under rectification, erasure and restriction of processing

When we carry out a rectification or erasure of your personal information or a restriction of processing request, we are required to communicate this to the relevant recipients of that information (our suppliers and business partners). This is to make sure all necessary corrections, deletions and restrictions flow through to all records, held by us and by our business partners, which include your information. When we do this you have the right to request that we inform you who those recipients are.  

  • Right to raise data concerns (complaints)

You have a right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) if you believe that any collection, use or storage of your personal information by us is in breach of applicable data protection laws and regulations.

The ICO will usually ask that you try and resolve issues in relation to our handling of your information with us directly before referring your complaint to them, and we would recommend you contact us to allow us the opportunity to investigate and address your concerns.

More information can be found on the ICO’s website at: www.ico.org.uk/concerns. Making a complaint will not affect any other legal rights or remedies that you have.
