PURPOSE AND LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING YOUR DATA

We will process the personal data held about you for the purposes stated below:

Where we need to collect personal data by law, or under the terms of a contract we have with you and you fail to provide that data when requested, we may not be able to perform the contract we have or are trying to enter into with you.

Where we have a legal basis to use your personal data without consent (as we have described above), this policy fulfils our duty to process personal data fairly and lawfully and in a manner that you would expect given the nature of our relationship with you, by giving you appropriate notice and explanation of the way in which your personal data will be used.

Where consent is required for our use of your personal data as described above (for example, if you provide sensitive personal data to us), we will request your consent. Typically, we would collect your consent by giving you the ability to perform an action such as ticking the appropriate consent box or otherwise communicating your consent to us (for example, by email or by you providing us with non-mandatory information).

You can always change your mind about our processing of your personal data. If you change your mind please contact us using the details set out below.

DISCLOSURE OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA

We may share your personal data with selected third parties in accordance with this policy, including:

  • service providers (for example, IT services), business partners, suppliers and sub-contractors for the performance of any contract we enter into with you;
  • AHPMA, acting as our Secretariat and Public Enquiry;
  • government or other law enforcement agencies, in connection with the investigation of unlawful activities or for other legal reasons (this may include your location information);
  • in the event that we sell any business or assets or receive investment into our business, in which case we may disclose your personal data to the prospective buyer or investor; and
  • Professional advisers including doctors, lawyers, bankers, auditors and insurers who provide consultancy, banking, legal, insurance and accounting services.

 

WHERE WE STORE YOUR PERSONAL DATA

All information you provide to us or that we collect from you is stored on our secure servers or on the servers of our respective hosting service providers, which we may change from time to time. Where you have submitted an enquiry we may share your personal data with AHPMA, acting as our Secretariat and Public Enquiry. AHPMA’s servers are located inside the European Economic Area (EEA).

Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we ensure that a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

 

  • We transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed by the European Commission to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data (known as an adequacy decision). To find out which countries are covered by this, please see here.
  • Where there is no adequacy decision by the European Commission for a country outside the EEA (which means it is not deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for your personal data), we ensure that your personal data receives an adequate level of protection by the persons to whom it is transferred. We do this in one or both of the following ways:
    • use of the EU-US Privacy Shield;
    • securing agreement to the EU standard contractual clauses.

If you would like to find out more about these safeguards, please contact us using the details set out below.

SECURITY

All information you provide to us is stored on secure servers. We will use appropriate technical and organisational measures to safeguard your personal data.

We maintain, and ensure that anyone we share your personal data with maintains, appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure an appropriate level of security for all personal data we process.

Unfortunately the transmission of information via the Internet is not completely secure.  Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted via the internet; any such transmission is at your own risk.  Once we have received your personal data we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access or inadvertent disclosure.

 

RETAINING PERSONAL DATA

We will retain the personal data we receive or collect about you for the period reasonably required for us to use it in accordance with this privacy and cookies policy or in accordance with our legal rights and obligations. 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 requirements.

  • In some circumstances we may anonymise your personal data so that it can no longer be associated with you, in which case the anonymised data will no longer be considered personal data and we may use it without further notice to you.

Even if you request that we erase your data, we may still need to keep it (please see below) or may keep it in a form that does not identify you.

  • Access.  You have the right of access to data we hold about you.  This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.

If we change our practices to do this in a way which has significant effects on you, you may have the right to object. If this becomes relevant in the future, we will update this privacy and cookies policy to provide further information.

Please note that if you ask us to stop processing your personal data in a certain way or erase your personal data, and this type of processing or data is needed to facilitate your use of the website or to allow us to respond to your query, you may not be able to use the website or receive responses from us as you did before, or at all.
