The basis upon which we use personal information
6. We will only use personal information when the law allows us to.
Most commonly, we will use personal data in the following circumstances:
• Where we need to do so to perform a contract we are about to enter into or have entered into for example a contract of employment
• Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party such as one of our clients) and the interests and fundamental rights of the individual whose personal information we are using do not override those interests
• Where it is necessary to comply with a legal or regulatory framework
7. Generally we do not rely on consent as a legal basis for processing personal information other than in relation to sending direct marketing communications.
Consent to receiving direct marketing communications can be withdrawn at any time, including through our website.
How long we keep personal information
8. We will keep personal information in accordance with our data retention practices, which apply appropriate retention periods for each category of personal information.

Which countries we transfer personal information to
11. In the course of providing services to our clients we may need to transfer personal information outside the UK
12. Whenever we transfer personal information outside the UK, we implement at least one of these safeguards or ensure that at least one of these conditions applies:
• By transferring to a country in relation to which there are UK ‘adequacy regulations’
• If we put in place one of the ‘appropriate safeguards’ referred to in the UK GDPR
• If one of the exceptions in the UK GDPR applies
How we protect personal information
13. We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent personal information from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered or disclosed. We have put in place appropriate measures to inform our staff about how we collect, handle and keep information secure.
14. We have put in place measures to deal with any suspected personal information breach and will notify relevant individuals and the Information Commissioner of a breach when we are legally required to do so.
The legal rights of individuals whose personal information we process
15. Individuals have the rights set out below. If you wish to exercise any of these rights please contact our Data Protection Officer using the contact details given above.
• Request access to their personal information (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables individuals to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about them and to check that we are lawfully processing it.
• Request correction of the personal information that we hold about them. This enables individuals to have any incomplete or inaccurate information we hold, though we will need to verify the accuracy of the new information provided to us.
• Request erasure of their personal information. This enables individuals to ask us to delete or remove personal information where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. Individuals also have the right to ask us to delete or remove their personal information where they have successfully exercised their right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed their information unlawfully or where we are required to erase their personal information to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with a request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to the individual, if applicable, at the time of their request. Object to processing of personal information where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or that of a third party) and there is something about the individual’s particular situation which makes her/him want to object to processing on this ground as she/he feels it impacts on her/ his fundamental rights and freedoms. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process the information which overrides those rights and freedoms. Individuals also have the right to object where we are processing their personal information for direct marketing purposes.
• Request restriction of processing of their personal information. This enables individuals to ask us to suspend the processing of their personal information in the following scenarios: (a) if the individual wants us to establish the information’s accuracy; (b) where our use of the information is unlawful but an individual does not want us to erase it; (c) where the individual needs us to hold the information even if we no longer require it as she/he needs it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (d) the individual has objected to our use of their information but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it
• Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process the personal information. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before consent is withdrawn.
Complaints
16. Individuals have a right to make a complaint at any time to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection issues (www.ico.org.co.uk).
