This is the GDPR Privacy Policy of Contender UK, Unit 12b The IO Centre, Stephenson Road, Segensworth South, Fareham, Hampshire, PO15 5RU, United Kingdom. Telephone +44 (0)1329 849036 and email general@contender.co.uk

In Contender UK we are committed to protect and respect your privacy in compliance with EU- General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) 2016/679, dated April 27th 2016. This privacy policy sets out how Contender UK collects and processes your personal data when you access and use our products, services and websites.

WHEN AND HOW DO WE COLLECT PERSONAL DATA?

We collect data by direct contact in person, by post, by email, by phone, business cards and through our websites. We also collect personal data from our partners where necessary or where there is a legitimate interest.

WHAT PERSONAL DATA DO WE COLLECT?

The personal data we collect includes title, full name, position, contact telephone numbers, email and Skype address, in addition to your company’s name and contact information.

Contender UK does not collect or process any special categories or sensitive personal data.

DO WE SHARE YOUR DATA WITH ANYONE?

We do not share, sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personal data to outside parties. This does not include trusted third parties working on our behalf who assist in conducting our business or services to you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential. We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect ours or others rights, property, or safety.

HOW LONG DO WE KEEP PERSONAL DATA FOR?

We store personal data for as long as we find it necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of supplying goods and services, marketing, satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

YOUR RIGHTS TO YOUR PERSONAL DATA

You have the following rights with respect to your personal data:
The right to request a copy of your personal data that Contender UK holds about you.
The right to request that Contender UK corrects your personal data if inaccurate or out of date.
The right to request that your personal data is deleted when it is no longer necessary for Contender UK to retain such data.
The right to withdraw any consent to personal data processing at any time. For example, your consent to receive e-marketing communications.
The right to request that Contender UK provides you with your personal data and, if possible, to pass on this information directly (in a portable format) to another data controller when the processing is based on consent or contract.
The right to request a restriction on further data processing, in case there is a dispute in relation to the accuracy or processing of your personal data.
The right to object to the processing of personal data, in case data processing has been based on legitimate interest and/or direct marketing.
Any query about your Privacy Rights should be sent to general@contender.co.uk

WHY DO WE COLLECT AND PROCESS PERSONAL DATA?

We primarily process personal data in order to fulfil our contractual obligations to you and to provide you with goods, services, support and relevant information in an effective manner.

With your consent we may also use your personal data to communicate urgent notifications and provide marketing information on products, services and pricing.  Where we ask for your consent to process your personal data, you have the right to withdraw such consent as described in this privacy notice. Please note, however, we may be unable to provide you certain services that require the use of personal data.

Please note that even where your consent would otherwise be required, we may nevertheless process your personal data in accordance with our legitimate interests under applicable law.

OUR LEGAL BASIS FOR COLLECTING PERSONAL DATA

COLLECTING PERSONAL DATA BASED ON CONTRACTS

We use personal information for fulfilling our obligations related to contracts and agreements with customers, partners and suppliers.

COLLECTING PERSONAL DATA BASED ON LEGITIMATE INTEREST

We may use personal data if it is considered to be of legitimate interest, and if the privacy interests of the data subjects do not override this interest. A legitimate interest will only be established as a legal basis where a clear mutual interest between Contender UK and the individual person has been identified. This legal basis is primarily related to our sales and marketing purposes.

COLLECTING PERSONAL DATA BASED ON CONSENTS

The collection of personal data based on consent from the data subject will be done by using “Consent Forms” that will store documentation related to the consent given by the individual. Individual consents will always be stored and documented in our systems. This consent can be withdrawn at any time.
