Introduction

This policy describes how this personal data must be collected, handled and stored to meet the company’s data protection standards — and to comply with the law.

These rules apply regardless of whether data is stored electronically, on paper or on other materials.

The Data Protection Act is underpinned by eight important principles. These say that personal data must:

Be processed fairly and lawfully

Be obtained only for specific, lawful purposes

Be adequate, relevant and not excessive

Be accurate and kept up to date

Not be held for any longer than necessary

Processed in accordance with the rights of data subjects

Be protected in appropriate ways

Not be transferred outside the European Economic Area (EEA), unless that country or territory also ensures an adequate level of protection

“The Right to be forgotten” you have the right to request that your data is deleted or restricted.
