We require third parties to respect the security of your data and to treat it in accordance with the law.

Marketing

We strive to provide you with choices regarding certain personal data uses, particularly around marketing and advertising. We have established the following personal data control mechanisms:

Promotional offers from us

We may use your Identity, Sessional and Aggregated Data to form a view on what we think you may want or need, or what may be of interest to you. This is how we decide which products, services and offers may be relevant for you (we call this marketing).

You will receive marketing communications from us if you have requested information from us or purchased services from us or if you provided us with your details when you entered a competition or registered for a promotion and, in each case, you have not opted out of receiving that marketing.

Third-party marketing

We will get your express opt-in consent before we share your personal data with any third-party company for marketing purposes.

Data Security

We are committed to ensuring your personal data is kept securely across all our systems with appropriate access controls for all parties that interact with your personal data.  All of our communication, data-sharing and cloud-based services are fully GDPR compliant and the majority meet several ISO certified standards for information security, communication and processing.

Data Retention

We only keep your personal data for as long as necessary to provide our services to you and whether any legal requirements apply for the retention of any particular data.  In the absence of any legal requirements, personal data may only be retained as long as necessary for the purpose of processing. This means data is to be deleted e.g. when:

  • you have withdrawn consent to processing;
  • a contract has been performed or cannot be performed anymore; or
  • the data is no longer up to date.
  • you have requested the erasure of data or the restriction of processing

Exceptions may apply to the processing for historical, statistical or scientific purposes.

During the retention period

We carry out periodical reviews of data retained.

We establish and verify retention periods for data considering the following categories:

  • the requirements of our business;
  • type of personal data;
  • purpose of processing;
  • lawful grounds for processing; and
  • categories of data subjects

If precise retention periods cannot be established, we identify criteria by which the period can be determined

Expiration of the retention period

After the expiration of the applicable retention period we will remove all instances of personal data where applicable. This will be achieved by means of:

  • erasure of the unique identifiers which allows information to identify you;
  • erasure of single pieces of information that identify the data subject (whether alone or in combination with other pieces of information);
  • separation of personal data from non-identifying information (e.g. an order number from the customer’s name and address); or
  • aggregation of personal data in a way that no allocation to any individual is possible.

Your rights

Your rights in connection with personal data

Under certain circumstances, by law you have the right to:

  • Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it. Please contact us regarding our DSAR Procedure for more information.
  • Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate information we hold about you corrected.
  • Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have exercised your right to object to processing (see below).
  • Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes.
  • Request the restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of personal data about you, for example if you want us to establish its accuracy or the reason for processing it.
  • Request the transfer of your personal data to another party.

Please contact us if you wish to exercise any of the rights above.

Right to withdraw consent

In the limited circumstances where you may have provided your consent to the collection, processing and transfer of your personal data for a specific purpose, you have the right to withdraw your consent for that specific processing at any time. Please contact the Data Protection Officer.

Complaints & questions

If you have any questions about this privacy notice or how we handle your personal data, please contact the Data Protection Officer. If we have breached our duty of care, we will take appropriate action.
