We must ensure that personal data shall be:
a) processed lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner;
b) collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and not further processed in a manner
that is incompatible with those purposes;
c) adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purposes for which they are

e) kept for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data are processed.
We operate a data retention policy that ensures we meet this obligation.
We only retain personal data for the purposes for which it was collected and for a  reasonable period thereafter where there is a legitimate business need or legal obligation to do so. For detail of our current retention policy contact us on [email protected]
f) processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data, including protection against  unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage, using appropriate technical or organisational measures. We ensure lawful processing of personal data by obtaining consent; or where there is a contractual obligation to do so in providing appropriate products and services; or where processing the data is necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interests in providing appropriate products and
services.

In the majority of cases we process personal data based on your contract with the us. In other cases,
we process personal data only where there are legitimate grounds for so doing.
To meet our Data Protection obligations, we have  established comprehensive and proportionate governance measures.

Under the GDPR You have the following specific rights in respect of the personal data we process:
1. The right to be informed about how we use personal data.
This Privacy Statement explains who we are; the purposes for which we process personal data and our legitimate interests in so doing; the categories of data we process; third party disclosures; and details of any transfers of personal data outside the UK.
2. The right of access to the personal data we hold. This will be free of charge and must be provided within 30 days of receipt.
3. The right to rectification, where data is inaccurate or incomplete. In such cases we shall make any amendments or additions within 30 days of the request.
4. The right to erasure of personal data, but only in very specific circumstances, typically where the personal data is no longer necessary in relation to the purpose for which it was originally collected or processed; or, in certain cases where we have relied on consent to process the data, when that consent is withdrawn and there is no other legitimate reason for continuing to process that data; or when the individual objects to the processing and there is no overriding  legitimate interest for continuing the processing.
5. The right to restrict processing, for example while we are reviewing the accuracy or completeness of data or deciding on whether any request for erasure is valid. In such cases we shall continue to store the data, but not further process it until such time as we have resolved the issue.
6. The right to data portability which, subject to a number of qualifying conditions, allows individuals to obtain and reuse their personal data for their own purposes across different services.
7. The right to object in cases where processing is based on legitimate interests, where our requirement to process the data is overridden by the rights of the individual concerned; or for the purposes of direct marketing (including profiling); or for processing for purposes of scientific / historical research and statistics, unless this is for necessary for the performance of a public interest task.
8. Rights in relation to automated decision making and profiling.
