We respect your right to privacy. This privacy notice sets out details about the way we process personal data which we collect from you and how we may use your information.
Under the EU’s General Data Protections Regulation (GDPR), personal data is defined as 'any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, local data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person'.
This privacy policy tells you how we will collect and use your personal data to respond to your request for assistance and how we use other data we collect from you in order to perform work on your behalf.
In order for us to provide you with assistance in your query we need to collect some personal data. We are committed to ensuring that the information we collect and use is appropriate for this purpose and does not constitute an invasion of your privacy. The lawful basis for collecting and using the personal data will depend on the specific context in which we collect it. However, we will normally collect personal data from you only (a) where we have your consent to do so or (b) where the processing is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your rights.
When engaged to work on your behalf, we will also require further data from you such as hosting server logins, social media logins and other related data which enables us to complete the tasks which you set.
We will not share any data we hold with third parties or any other organisation unless you have told us in writing that you would like us to.
We will process (collect, store and use) the information you provide in a manner compatible with the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). We will endeavour to keep your information accurate and up to date and not keep it for longer than is necessary.
All personal data you have provided will be stored securely, both physically and electronically, in accordance with our policies. We will keep data on your behalf in order to fulfill any future requests from you either in the form of further development of websites or software or in order to perform other tasks as and when you require them. If you ask us to destroy this data, we will do so promptly.
