We may change our privacy policy from time to time. Please check it occasionally to ensure that you are aware of the most recent version that will apply when you access this website.

You have various rights in respect of our use of your Personal Information as set out in section 11.  If you have any questions on this policy please contact safeandsound@theandpartnership.com.

 

What information do we collect?

At times, we may request that you voluntarily supply us with personal information in order to download information from our website, or you may choose to provide us with your personal information by emailing us via the “Contact” section of this website (this is to be known as completing a “Contact Form”). Generally, this information is requested or provided when you want us to provide you with information.

We may gather the following information (“Personal Information”) about you including, but not limited to, the following:

  • Name
  • Company name
  • Email address
  • IP address (a unique identifier for your computer or other device)
  • Mobile device ID
  • Such other personal information provided by you when contacting us via the “Contact” sections of this website, email, phone or otherwise.

What Personal Information of yours are we processing?

Based on your answers on the Contact Form, we are processing the Personal Information defined above.

T&P holds your Personal Information within a piece of client relationship management (“CRM”) software (with additional security measures taken to ensure that your Personal Information is secure).

 

Collection of your Personal Information and how we use it

Once you have entered your Personal Information into the Contact Form, this information is then held within the CRM system.

We may then use your Personal Information to send you information which we think you may find useful about our business (including but not limited to business news, recent white papers and invitations to one of our client events).

 

Legal basis for use of your Personal Information

We consider that the legal bases for using your Personal Information as set out in this Policy are as follows:

Consent.  We will use your Personal Information to provide you with materials and information you have requested and to respond to specific queries you may raise regarding T&P and its various operating companies and brands. We will also use your Personal Information to send you information and materials that may be of interest to you, such as newsletters, whitepapers, news bulletins, and other business information.

We gave you information on the pages into which you entered your Personal Information in which we made the purpose of our collection and use of the Personal Information clear to you, as well as the fact that provision by you of the Personal Information was entirely voluntary.  However, you may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us at email.optout@theandpartnership.com or by clicking on the unsubscribe option at the bottom of any emails we send you.

Legitimate interests.  We are also processing your Personal Information in order to achieve a number of legitimate interests which are set out in our general privacy policy. Please click https://theandpartnership.com/cookies-policy/ for more details.

Please note that if we rely on our (or another person’s) legitimate interests for using your Personal Information, we will first undertake a balancing test to ensure that our (or the other person’s) legitimate interests are not outweighed by your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms which require protection of your Personal Information.  You can ask us for information on this balancing test by using the contact details at the end of this Policy.

 

Additional use of your Personal Information (Legitimate Interests)

We may also collect, use and store your Personal Information for the following additional reasons:

(a)            to deal with any enquiries or issues you have about how we collect, store and use your Personal Information, or any requests made by you for a copy of the Personal Information we hold about you;

(b)            internal reporting and administration purposes. We may process your Personal Information for these purposes where it is in our legitimate interests to do so;

(c)            to comply with any procedures, laws and regulations which apply to us – this may include where we reasonably consider it is in our legitimate interests or the legitimate interests of others to comply, as well as where we are legally required to do so; and

(d)            to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights – this may include where we reasonably consider it is in our legitimate interests or the legitimate interests of others, as well as where we are legally required to do so.

Before using your Personal Information for any purposes which fall outside those set out in this Policy, we will undertake an analysis to establish if our new use of your Personal Information is compatible with the purposes set out in this section.  Please contact us using the contact details at the end of this Policy if you want further information on the analysis we will undertake.

 

Sharing your Personal Information

Unless we are under a duty to disclose or share your Personal Information in order to comply with any legal obligation, any lawful request from government or law enforcement officials, to defend a legal action against us or prevent unlawful activity, we will not share your Personal Information with other third parties engaged with T&P.

 

How long we store your Personal Information

We keep your Personal Information for no longer than necessary for the purposes for which the personal information is processed. The length of time for which we retain Personal Information depends on the purposes for which we collect and use it and/or as required to comply with applicable laws and to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights.  If you would like further information on how long we retain your Personal Information then please contact us at safeandsound@theandpartnership.com.

 

Where we may transfer your Personal Information

We are a global company and therefore we may transfer your personal information to countries around the world including the US and other countries outside Europe. We will, where the country to which your data is transferred has not been found to provide an adequate level of protection, put in place appropriate safeguards (we use standard contractual clauses) to ensure your information is protected.

We also use a number of suppliers and service providers in connection with the operation of our business who may have access to the personal information that we process, e.g. IT suppliers when providing us with software support, or cloud services, or a company which we use for a marketing campaign may process your contact information on our behalf.  In all cases, your personal information is handled and protected in accordance with data protection law.

 

Risks and how we keep your Personal Information secure

The main risk of our processing of your Personal Information is if it is lost, stolen or misused.  This could lead to your Personal Information being in the hands of someone else who may use it fraudulently or make public information that you would prefer to keep private.

For this reason, T&P is committed to protecting your Personal Information from loss, theft and misuse.  We have taken a number of precautions to safeguard the confidentiality of your Personal Information, including through use of appropriate organisational and technical measures (such as password protecting your Personal Information and limiting access appropriately).

 

Your Rights

In addition to your right to withdraw consent at any time as explained above, you also have the following rights in respect of our collection and use of your Personal Information:

The right of access to the personal data we hold about you.  You have a right of access to any Personal Information we hold about you.  You can ask us for a copy of your Personal Information; confirmation as to whether your Personal Information is being used by us; details about how and why it is being used; and details of the safeguards which are in place if we transfer your information outside of the United Kingdom or the European Economic Area (“EEA”).

The right to rectification if any Personal Information we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete. You have a right to request an update to any of your Personal Information which is out of date or incorrect.

Right to delete your information.  You have a right to ask us to delete any Personal Information which we are holding about you in certain specific circumstances.  You can ask us for further information on these specific circumstances by contacting us using the details at the end of this Policy.

The right to restrict (i.e. prevent) the processing of your Personal Information.  You have a right to ask us to restrict the way that we process your Personal Information in certain specific circumstances.  You can ask us for further information on these specific circumstances by contacting us using the details at the end of this Policy.

Right to data portability: You have a right to ask us to provide your Personal Information to a third-party provider of services.

This right only applies where we use your Personal Information on the basis of your consent or performance of a contract; and where our use of your Personal Information is carried out by automated means.

Right to object.  You have a right to ask us to consider any valid objections which you have to our use of your Personal Information where we process your Personal Information on the basis of our or another person’s legitimate interest.

We will consider all such requests and provide our response within a reasonable period (and in any event within one month of your request unless we tell you we are entitled to a longer period under applicable law). Please note, however, that certain Personal Information may be exempt from such requests in certain circumstances, for example if we need to keep using the information to comply with our own legal obligations or to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

If an exception applies, we will tell you this when responding to your request.  We may request you provide us with information necessary to confirm your identity before responding to any request you make.
