your free-text message contained in your email or fax or via a phone conversation (which may include personal data and/or special categories of personal data)

While it is possible that we might obtain sensitive personal information about you (also referred to as special categories of personal data), we will never ask for you to provide such sensitive personal information without your explicit consent unless we are required to process such data by law or such processing is otherwise lawful, such as under a lawful exception under data protection laws.

Personnel, Suppliers and Subcontractors

We keep your personal information confidential, but may disclose it to our personnel, suppliers or subcontractors (including our cloud-based data processing, data analytics and payment service providers) insofar as it is reasonably necessary for the purposes set out in this Policy, provided that they do not make independent use of the information and have agreed to adhere to the rules set out in this Policy.

In some instances, this data sharing may involve the transfer of information outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”), including to personnel, suppliers and subcontractors of our group companies or those of our trusted third parties. Please see our section on International Data Transfers below.

Marketing

Where you have subscribed to our newsletters and updates, you will be asked about marketing permissions.

If you opt-in, we might send you marketing emails about products or services which are similar to or related to those available via our online services, or contact you by phone or SMS.

We may anonymise information about you (so that you cannot be identified from it) and provide the anonymised data to third parties for marketing analysis purposes or to market the Website.

Social Media

Our Website contains links to Cherry Red’s social media pages on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. These third party websites have their own respective privacy policies (which we would advise you to read) for which those sites are solely responsible.

_._._

Children

We do not knowingly use the Website to solicit data from or to market or sell to children under the age of 13.

If a parent or guardian becomes aware that his or her child has provided us with information or may be receiving communications from us or otherwise interacting with our Website without consent of a parent or guardian, we ask that this be brought to our immediate attention. We will make it our priority to address this situation and delete information relating to a child as soon as practicable. In such an event, please contact us at data@cherryred.co.uk.

_._._

Security

We will take commercially reasonable, appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk that could be encountered via the use of our Website and services, taking into account the likelihood and severity those risks might pose to the rights and freedoms of our customers and other individuals who might be impacted.

In particular, we will take precautions to protect against the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, or alteration, and unauthorised disclosure of or access to the personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed by us.

Please be aware that, while we make the security of our Website and your personal information a high priority and we devote considerable time and resources to implementing and maintaining robust information technology security, no security system can prevent all security breaches. By choosing to share your personal information with us, you accept the aforesaid and provide your information at your own risk.

_._._

Retention

In accordance with data protection laws and good commercial practice, we do not retain data in a form that permits identification of the person(s) to whom it relates for any longer than is necessary. Once the purpose for which information has been collected has been fulfilled, we will either permanently delete your personal information or remove all identifiers within it so that it is no longer personal data. We may use such anonymised data for research and/or business analysis purposes.

By way of example, if you contact us by email or via a form submitted via the Website, we will keep records of what is communicated to ensure that we have a record of our discussion for future reference and for the improvement of our services and Website. Generally, such records will be deleted five (5) years from the date that record was first received and recorded.

_._._

International Data Transfers

Our servers are located in the European Union and the information that we collect directly from you will be stored in these servers. We may also transfer your personal data to members of our group of companies and our third party service providers, many of whom may be located outside of the EU, operate from multiple locations including non-EU based operations or engage sub-processors located outside the EU.

There are agreements in place between our group company members and with all of our third party service providers to ensure that those parties process personal data using appropriate safeguards that meet the requirements of data protection laws. Such appropriate safeguards may include standard data protection clauses adopted by a data protection regulator and approved by the European Commission, such as the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses.

If you would like to find out more about these safeguards or if you have any other queries or comments in relation to this policy, please let us know by emailing us at data@cherryred.co.uk.
