​

In addition, if you don't want us to use your personal data for any of the other reasons set out in this Section 4, you can let us know at any time by contacting us at support@costofcaretoolkit.co.uk, and we will delete your data from our systems. However, you acknowledge this will limit our ability to provide the best possible products and services to you.

​

In some cases, the collection of personal data may be a statutory or contractual requirement, and we will be limited in the  services we can provide you if you don’t provide your personal data in these cases. If you fail to provide that personal data when requested, it may mean that we are unable to perform the contract we hold with you.  Please see below a non-exhaustive, illustrative list of the purposes for which we may process your personal data.

​

We will only use your personal data when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use your personal data in the following circumstances:

 

a) Where we need to perform the contract we are about to enter into or have entered into with you.

b) Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests.

c) Where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation, for example compliance with health and safety, tax, or other statutory obligations.

 

Please note that the terms ‘legitimate interests’ and ‘fundamental rights’ carry the meanings given to them under UK GDPR laws.

​

Generally, we do not rely on consent as a legal basis for processing your personal data other than in relation to our marketing communications or sending third party direct marketing communications to you via email or text message. You have the right to withdraw consent to marketing at any time by contacting us at support@costofcaretoolkit.co.uk, and we will either delete your data from our systems or move your data to section which does not receive marketing communications. However, you acknowledge this will limit our ability to provide the best possible services to you.

​

As already indicated above, with your permission and/or where permitted by law, we may also use your data for marketing purposes which may lead to us contacting you by email and/or telephone with information, news and offers on our Services. We agree that we will not do anything that we have not agreed to under this Privacy Policy, and we will not send you any unsolicited marketing or spam. We will take all reasonable steps to ensure that we fully protect your rights and comply with our obligations under the UK GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003, as amended.

​

Data security is of great importance to us, and to protect your data we have put in place suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure data collected through our Website. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions, and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

 

We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so. ​By giving us your personal data, you agree to this arrangement. We will do what we reasonably can to keep your data secure. We have implemented security measures such as a firewall to protect any data and maintain a high level of security.​ Any payments made by you, will be encrypted.

​

Notwithstanding the security measures that we take, it is important to remember that the transmission of data via the internet may not be completely secure and that you are advised to take suitable precautions when transmitting to us data via the internet and you take the risk that any sending of that data turns out to be not secure despite our efforts.

We will keep personal data for as long as is reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements which is usually the life of our relationship and up to a period of seven years after our relationship with you has ended. We may however be required to retain personal data for a longer period of time to ensure we comply with our legislative and regulatory requirements. We review our data retention obligations to ensure we are not retaining data for longer than we are legally obliged to.

​

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider a number of factors namely amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm in the event of unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purpose or purposes for which we process your personal data and also whether those purposes can be achieved through other means. We also take due account of the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.

 

You may also ask us to delete your data at any time: see Section 8 ‘your legal rights’ below for further information.

We may also anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes. We may hold this anonymised data without limitation of time.
