17.2 YOUR SECURITY MEASURES
For your own privacy protection, we encourage you to maintain anti-virus and other malware protection software on your computers and other devices, and to maintain your own measures to protect your personal data. Please do not include sensitive personal data in any e-mails you may send to us, including payment card information. We also encourage you to be careful about who you give personal data to. We never contact you to ask you for sensitive personal data, such as payment card information, or sensitive personal data such as passport numbers or log-in details, and we will only ask you for such information in person or through our website, or by telephone in connection with a booking you are making or have made. Please let us know if you someone purports to contact you in our name.
17.3 INTERNATIONAL TRANSFER OF DATA
In accordance with the GDPR we will not transfer any personal data to bodies whose legal entity resides outside a European jurisdiction or countries who have data protection legislation that offers similar data protection to the GDPR. Should any international transfer of data occur then we will conduct a Privacy Impact Assessment to look at the risks of transferring this data.
18.How long do we keep your personal data for?
We keep your personal data for so long a is reasonably necessary for the purposes for which we use it, and if longer, for any duration required by law, and for statutory claims limitation periods where your personal data may be relevant to any possible liability we may have to you.
18.1 RIGHT TO BE FORGOTTEN
Should you wish your data to be removed from our system, you may request in writing for your data to be destroyed, which will be done within 21 days of receiving your written request. Your name and email will still be retained within our unsubscribe lists so that we can be assured of not contacting you again. We retain the right to keep personal data that complies with UK law, e.g. we will keep all invoices for 6 years enabling us to meet UK tax regulations. We shall also store sensitive data in relation to bookings for up to 6 years to allow us to comply with any UK law enforcement. However should a request to be forgotten be made, then your personal data will no longer be general processed for or business needs but rather stored securely in a data archive.
19.Your Rights
Our privacy policy is not intended to create a contract or form part of any contract. You have certain non-contractual rights under the laws noted above, which we summarize below. If you contact us about these rights, we may ask for proof of your identity before we act, and may refuse to act if you do not provide this or your identity is not established by you.
19.1 ACCESS TO YOUR PERSONAL DATA
You may make a subject access request at any time in writing to the data controller at our registered address above. This may be subject to a £10 fee which is in line with ICO recommendations dependent on the complexity of the request. The law does allow us, in certain cases to refuse your request, and we will advise you at the time if this is the case.
19.2 USE CAUSING SUBSTANTIAL DISTRESS OR DAMAGE
You have the right to ask us to stop using your personal data for any purpose in any manner that is causing you or is likely to cause you unwarranted and substantial damage or distress, subject to exceptions laid down by the GDPR
19.3 USE FOR DIRECT MARKETING
You have the right to ask us to stop using your personal data to carry out direct marketing to you.
19.4 CORRECTION OF INACCURACIES
You have the right to ask a court to order us to rectify, block, erase or destroy any inaccurate personal data we hold about you. However we will do our best where possible to make sure that your records are kept up to date where you yourself cannot make the corrections.
19.5 COMPENSATION
You have the right to claim compensation for damage and (in certain cases) distress you suffer if we do not comply with the laws referred to above.
19.6 COMPLAINTS TO APPLICABLE AUTHORITY
The laws we comply with are regulated by the Information Commissioner (www.ico.gov.uk) in the United Kingdom. In addition to your rights above, it is open to you, if you have a complaint or concern, to seek assistance from such government regulator, who has powers to compel us to comply with applicable laws and fine us for non-compliance. However, before you do so, we would hope that you will contact us first to discuss any complaint or concerns you have.
