A full list of your rights under GDPR is as follows:
You can contact the Information Commissioner’s Office via email, on 0303 123 1113, or at the Information Commissioner’s Office, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9 5AF.
We need to know basic personal data in order to provide you with our services, and to claim our right to be paid for our services under our terms of engagement or our standard terms and conditions. We will not collect any personal data from you that we do not need.
All the personal data we hold about you will be processed by our staff (who are subject to strict internal procedures) and no third parties will have access to it unless there is a legal obligation for us to provide them with this. We have set out below the legal bases for Durlings to process your data.
Some of our processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation. For example, Durlings is a regulated entity and therefore has a duty to act as a data controller and is obliged to report certain matters to its regulators or to law enforcement agencies.
We may also process data if it is necessary for the performance of a contract with you, or to take steps to enter into a contract.
Where your information is used other than in accordance with one of these uses, we will first obtain your consent to that use.
We keep your personal data for a minimum of 6 years, after which time it will be destroyed if it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was obtained. If you consent to receive marketing information, any data we use for this purpose will be kept until you notify us that you no longer wish to receive such information.
Your personal data will only be shared with third parties, including other data controllers (who are subject to the same data protection rules as us), where it is necessary for the performance of the data controllers’ tasks or where you first give us your prior consent. We may need to share your data with our agents, suppliers and contractors. For example, we may ask a supplier to send out newsletters on our behalf, or to maintain our database software, or to provide you with a survey, report or certificate.
