What personal data do we collect and why do we use it?
The table below explains who we collect personal data about, what that personal data is and the
purpose we process it for.
The last column sets out the 'lawful basis' we rely on for processing that personal data which is a
requirement of data protection rules. Essentially, companies may only process personal data if they can
identify a lawful basis from a list set out in the legislation.

Where we have indicated in the table above that we rely on legitimate interests for processing of personal data, we carry out a 'balancing' test to ensure that our processing is necessary and that your fundamental rights of privacy are not outweighed by our legitimate interests, before we go ahead with such processing.
How long do we keep your personal data for?
We keep your information only for as long as is necessary for the relevant purpose. For example, if we have a contract with you, this will be for 6 years after expiry in order to assist us with any contractual claims. We use a number of criteria for determining the retention period including obligations under law, our need to defend or bring contractual claims within the statutory limitation period and consideration of the original purpose we collected it for.
Who do we share your personal data with?
Data may be shared in the following circumstances:
- With professional advisors;
- In the event of a sale of the company or its assets;
- With suppliers but only subject to robust contractual protections;
- Other companies in our group.

If you do not provide the personal data necessary, we may not be able to respond to your query or provide the relevant services to you.
Do we make automated decisions concerning you?
We do not carry out this type of processing activity.
Do we transfer your data outside the UK and Europe?
We may sometimes transfer your personal data to countries outside the UK and European Economic Area, for example, if we are using a supplier based elsewhere. You can find the list of European member states by clicking on the following link: https://europa.eu/european-union/about-eu/countries/membercountries_en. The privacy laws in countries outside the UK and European Economic Area may be different from those in your home country.
Where we transfer data to a country that has not been deemed to provide adequate data protection standards, we always have security measures and approved model clauses or other adequate safeguards in place to protect your personal data. Please contact us if you would like more details about our safeguards for data transfers.
What rights do you have in relation to the data we hold about you?
By law, you have a number of rights when it comes to your personal data. Further information and advice about your rights can be obtained from the data protection regulator in your country. In the UK this is the Information Commissioner.
We usually act on requests and provide information free of charge, but may charge a reasonable fee to cover our administrative costs of providing the information for:
- baseless or excessive/repeated requests, or
- further copies of the same information.
- Alternatively, we may be entitled to refuse to act on the request in some circumstances.
Please consider your request responsibly before submitting it. We'll respond as soon as we can. Generally, this will be within one month from when we receive your request but, if the request is going to take longer to deal with, we'll come back to you and let you know.
