Personal Data may be freely provided by the User or, in the case of Usage Data, collected automatically when using this Application. All Data requested by this Application is mandatory unless stated otherwise, and failure to provide it may make it impossible for this Application to provide the requested service.

Users are responsible for any third-party Personal Data obtained, published or shared through this Application and confirm that they have the third party's consent to provide that Data to the Owner.

Legal basis for processing

The Owner processes Personal Data relating to Users where one of the following legal bases applies under the UK GDPR / EU GDPR:

Consent — where the User has given clear consent for the Owner to process their Personal Data for a specific purpose, such as submitting a contact or project enquiry form.

Legitimate interests — where processing is necessary for the Owner's legitimate interests (for example, understanding how the Application is used, improving its content and security, or responding to business enquiries), provided those interests are not overridden by the User's rights.

Performance of a contract — where processing is necessary to take steps requested by the User prior to entering into a contract, or to perform an existing contract with the User.

Legal obligation — where processing is necessary for the Owner to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation to which it is subject.

If a User has questions about the specific legal basis relied on for a given processing activity, they may contact the Owner using the details provided above.

Mode and place of processing the Data

Methods of processing

The Data Controller processes the Data of Users in a proper manner and takes appropriate technical and organizational security measures to prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction of the Data. Processing is carried out using computers and/or IT-enabled tools, following organizational procedures strictly related to the purposes indicated. In addition to the Data Controller, in some cases the Data may be accessible to certain categories of authorized personnel involved with the operation of this Application (administration, sales, marketing, legal, systems administration), or to external parties acting as Data Processors on the Owner's behalf (such as hosting providers, email and CRM providers, analytics providers, and IT service providers). An updated list of these parties may be requested from the Data Controller at any time.

Place

Data is processed at the Data Controller's operating offices in the United Kingdom and at the locations of the Data Processors involved with the processing, which may be located outside the UK or the European Economic Area ("EEA"). Where Personal Data is transferred outside the UK or the EEA, the Owner ensures such transfers are made on the basis of an adequacy decision, standard contractual clauses, or another safeguard recognized as valid under the UK GDPR and/or EU GDPR. Users may contact the Owner for further information about the safeguards applied to a specific transfer.

Retention time

Personal Data is kept only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purpose of satisfying any legal, accounting or reporting requirements. Enquiry and project-related Data submitted through forms is typically retained for the duration of the business relationship and for a reasonable period afterwards to respond to related queries, after which it is deleted or anonymized, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. Users may request that the Data Controller specify the retention period applicable to their Data, or request earlier deletion, at any time.

The rights of Users under UK GDPR / EU GDPR

Users may exercise certain rights regarding their Data processed by the Owner. In particular, Users have the right to do the following, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

Right to access — obtain confirmation as to whether Data concerning them is being processed and, where that is the case, obtain a copy of that Data and other related information.

Right to rectification — have inaccurate or incomplete Data concerning them corrected or completed.

Right to erasure — obtain the erasure of Data concerning them, subject to the exceptions set out in applicable law.

Right to restriction of processing — request that the Owner restrict the processing of their Data in certain circumstances.

Right to data portability — receive Data concerning them, provided under a contract or with consent, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and, where technically feasible, have it transmitted to another controller.

Right to object — object to the processing of their Data where it is carried out on the basis of legitimate interests, including profiling, on grounds relating to their particular situation.

Right to withdraw consent — withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.

Requests to exercise these rights should be sent to the Data Controller at the contact details set out above. Requests are handled free of charge and answered as early as possible, in line with applicable law. The Owner may ask the User to verify their identity before responding to a request.

Users who believe that their rights have been infringed may lodge a complaint with the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), or with the supervisory authority in their EEA country of habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement, without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.
