When you supply any personal information to us, we have legal obligations towards you in the way we deal with that data. We must collect the information fairly; we must let you know how we will use it; and we must tell you in advance if we decide to pass the information on to anyone else. We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as you use the service you have requested. We will ensure that all personal information supplied is held securely, in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998.

The legal grounds we use for processing personal data

We are required by law to set out in this privacy policy the legal grounds on which we rely to process your personal data. We rely on one or more of the following lawful grounds:

• you have explicitly agreed to us processing your information for a specific reason.
• the processing is necessary to perform the agreement we have with you or to take steps to enter into an agreement with you. 
• the processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation we have such as keeping records for tax purposes or providing information to a public body or law enforcement agency. 
• the processing is necessary for the purposes of a legitimate interest pursued by us or a third party, which might be:

To the extent that we process any special categories of data relating to you for any of the purposes outlined above, we will do so because you have given us your explicit consent to process that data; we are required by law to process that data in order to ensure we meet our ‘know your client’ and ‘anti-money laundering’ obligations (or other legal obligations imposed on us); the processing is necessary to carry out our obligations under employment, social security or social protection law; the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims; or you have made the data manifestly public.

Please note that in certain circumstances it may be still lawful for us to continue processing your information even where you have withdrawn your consent, if one of the other legal bases described above is applicable.

We may share your personal information with service providers to monitor and analyse the use of the service, or otherwise with your consent.

Data retention

The company will retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. We will retain and use your personal data to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your data to comply with applicable laws), resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.
