Children’s data
We do not actively collect information from children (under-18s), and would not knowingly hold or process data of a minor. The data we collect is for use in predominately business 2 business marketing and is that of decision makers or their employees, as such we have no imperative or requirement to hold the data of children.
How do we keep your data safe and who has access to it?
We place great importance on the security of your personal information and will always try to take appropriate precautions to protect it.
We ensure that there are appropriate technical controls in place to protect your personal details. For example, we use encryption technology on our websites and carry out regular security reviews on our network.
We always ensure only authorised personnel have access to your information, Redsmont’s staff, the data steward, directors.
Despite all our precautions however, no data transmission over the internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. So, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you disclose to us online, and you must understand that you do so at your own risk.
How we keep your information up-to-date
Where possible, we try to keep your records up to date; for example, we aim to contact you at least once every two years by telephone to ensure your information on our database is correct. However, we really appreciate it if you let us know if your contact details change.
How long we keep your information for
We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as is necessary for the relevant activity, for example we will keep a record of any customer for a minimum of six years after final invoice to comply with HM Customer & Revenue legal requirements.
If you ask us to stop sending you marketing materials,that we have been sending you on the basis of consent, that you have given us, we will keep a record of your contact details and appropriate information to enable us to comply with your request not to be contacted by us.
We would still send marketing materials to the business (company name, company address, company switchboard number, company generic email e.g. sales@ or info@) and to anyone within the business who has given their consent.
Our legal basis for processing your information
Although in many cases we will seek consent to process your personal data, in some instances we may process your information without consent when we are legally allowed to do so. This will only be where it is in our legitimate interests to do so and where we are confident that such processing is not likely to prejudice your legitimate interests or rights and freedoms.
Where we are processing your personal data on the basis of consent that you have given us, you are entitled to withdraw that consent at any time such that we can no longer rely on it as a basis for continuing to process your personal information.
Your rights
You retain control of how we use your data and you have the right to ask us to rectify any inaccuracies or to stop processing your personal information, which we will do. In some circumstances we may legally be required to retain your personal information. However, this will be discussed with you depending on your requirements and does not apply if we are processing your data to contact you regarding, or sending you, marketing materials. Please call us on 01565 621577 if you have any concerns.
You have the ‘right to be forgotten’ if we are processing your data on the basis of consent, unless there are other legal grounds and obligations that require us to keep your personal data. In this case any personal data we hold would be erased and we would be unable to fulfil any requests about the information we had held retrospectively.
You also have the right to request a copy of the information we hold about you. If you want to access your information, please contact: The Data Steward, Redmont Packaging Limited 33 Tatton Street Knutsford Cheshire WA16 6AE
