Note to Customers Regarding the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

What does the GDPR apply to?

The GDPR applies to Personal Data which is any information relating to an identifiable person who can be directly or indirectly identified and applies to both automated or manual filing systems. Business to business transactions, in general, are not covered by the GDPR, apart from where a person is identifiable, i.e. by First Name, Last Name and Email Address. Our commitments As a company, we commit to the following:

• Recognising our responsibilities as both a Controller and Processor of Personal Data
• Any Personal Data which is collected will be for specified explicit and legitimate purposes and will not be processed further in any way incompatible with the initial purposes
• We will not hold more information than is needed for the purpose(s) notified
  Personal Data held by the company will be accurate and where necessary, kept up to date
• The company will only keep Personal Data for as long as necessary for the purposes collected
• All data will be processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the Personal Data including protection against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss destruction or damage, using appropriate technical or organisational measures
• Personal Data will not be processed outside the European Union apart from when appropriate measures have been taken to ensure its security – for example, a US company who is part of Privacy Shield

Reasons for processing Personal Data

• Consent has been obtained
• A contractual obligation
• A legal obligation

Data Breach

The company takes all appropriate measures to prevent a data breach. In the unlikely event of a breach, we will take the following steps:

• Notify the appropriate Supervisory Authority within 72 hours where feasible unless a breach is unlikely to result in a risk to individuals
