We also do not collect information about criminal convictions or offences.

3.    How do we collect personal data?

We obtain personal data directly from you. No other sources of personal data are utilised.

4.    How do we use your personal data?

Introduction

We will only use your personal data when the law allows us to.  Most commonly, we will use your personal data in the following circumstances:

  • To perform a contract we are about to enter into or have entered into with you.
  • If it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and these are not overridden by your own rights and interests.
  • Where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.

Lawful processing

In order to process personal data, we must have a lawful reason (sometimes called a lawful basis).  We always ensure that this is the case, and we set out our lawful bases below – but please note that more than one may apply at any given time: for example, if we inform you of changes to our privacy notice, we may process your personal data on the ground of complying with law and on the ground of legitimate interests.

We will use your personal data only for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we fairly consider that we need it for another reason that is compatible with the original purpose.

Please contact us if you would like more information on this, and on situations in which more than one lawful basis applies.

Contractual Necessity

If you are our customer or applying for a job, we will process your personal data for the following purposes, on the legal basis that it is necessary for us to provide our products and services to you:

  • To enable us to carry out our services
  • To identify you
  • To respond to your enquiries
  • To evaluate your job application and take any next steps, and to evaluate your suitability for roles where you have asked to be considered for future opportunities.

Of course, you are not obliged to provide us with any of this information, but if you chose not to, we may be unable to provide the product or service that you have requested.

Legitimate interests

We process your personal information for our legitimate business purposes, which include the following:

  • To conduct and manage our business
  • To deal with complaints

Whenever we process your personal data for these purposes, we ensure that your interests, rights and freedoms are carefully considered.

Compliance with laws

We may process your personal data in order to comply with applicable laws (for example, if we are required to co-operate with an investigation pursuant to a court order).

5.    Do we share your personal data?

We may provide your personal data to the following recipients for the purposes set out in this notice:

Other companies in our group, currently

  • Lex Products Limited

Our service providers, including:

  • Technical and support partners who provide technical support and back-up services
  • Recruitment service providers

Merger or acquisition partners, to the extent that sharing your personal data is necessary.

Law enforcement agencies, government or public agencies or officials, regulators, and any other person or entity that has the appropriate legal authority where we are legally required or permitted to do so, to respond to claims, or to protect our rights, interests, privacy, property or safety.

Any other parties, where we have your specific consent to do so.

6.    Do you have to provide personal data – and, if so, why?

To form a contract with you, we will need some or all of the personal data described above so that we can perform that contract or the steps that lead up to it: this is set out above in this notice.  If we do not receive the data, the contract could not be performed.

7.    How long will your personal data be kept for?

We carefully consider the personal data that we store, and we will not keep your information in a form that identifies you for longer than is necessary for the purposes set out in this notice or as required by applicable law.  In some instances, we are required to hold data for minimum periods: for example, UK tax law currently specifies a six-year period for retention of some of your personal data.

8.    Do we transfer personal data outside the EEA?

Although we are based in Scotland, we may transfer your personal information to a location (for example, to a secure server) outside the European Economic Area, if we consider it necessary or desirable for the purposes set out in this notice.

In such cases, to safeguard your privacy rights, transfers will be made to recipients to which a European Commission “adequacy decision” applies (this is a decision from the European Commission confirming that adequate safeguards are in place in that location for the protection of personal data), or will be carried out under standard contractual clauses that have been approved by the European Commission as providing appropriate safeguards for international personal data transfers or by the adoption of EU-US Privacy Shield.

9.    How do we keep your personal data secure?

Ten 47 has security measures in place designed to prevent data loss, to preserve data integrity, and to regulate access to the data.  Only authorised Ten 47 employees have access to your personal data.

All Ten 47 employees who have access to your personal data are required to adhere to the Ten 47 Privacy Notice.

The security measures we have in place include:

  • Regular reviews of information collection, storage and processing practices to protect against unauthorised access.
  • Restriction of access to personal information.
  • Monitoring of systems storing and processing information.

We take all reasonable steps to keep your data safe and secure and to ensure the data is accessed only by those who have a legitimate interest to do so. 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 to us.  Any 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.

Please contact us using the details in section 1 of this notice if you would like more information about this.

10.    Your information rights

We draw your attention to your following rights under data protection law:

  • Right to be informed about the collection and use of your personal data.
  • Right of access to your personal data, and the right to request a copy of the information that we hold about you and supplementary details about that information – you will be asked to provide proof of your identity and residential address, and we may ask you to provide further details to assist us in the provision of such information.
  • Right to have inaccurate personal data that we process about you rectified – we want to ensure that the personal information that we process and retain about you is accurate, so please do remember to tell us about any changes, for example if you have moved house or changed your contact details.  It is your responsibility to ensure you submit true, accurate, and complete information to us; please also update us in the event this information changes.
  • Right of erasure – in certain circumstances you have the right to have personal data that we process about you blocked, erased or destroyed.The Right to object to, or restrict:    
    •    Processing of personal data concerning you for direct marketing
    •    Decisions being taken by automated means which produce legal effects concerning you or that similarly significantly affect you.
    •    In certain other situations, to our continued processing of your personal data.
  • The Right of portability of your data in certain circumstances.

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive.  Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

Please contact us using the details in section 1 of this notice if you would like to exercise any of these rights or know more about them.

These rights are subject to certain limitations that exist in law.  Further information about your information rights is available on the ICO’s website: https://ico.org.uk/.

We may change this notice from time to time.  You should check this notice on our website occasionally, in order to ensure you are aware of the most recent version.

12.    What should you do if you have a complaint?

We hope that you will be satisfied with the way in which we approach and use your personal data. Should you find it necessary, you have a right to raise a concern with the information regulator, the Information Commissioner’s Office: https://ico.org.uk/.

However, we do hope that if you have a complaint about the way we handle your personal data, you will contact us in the first instance using the contact details in section 1 above, so that we have an opportunity to resolve it.
