Introduction
1. This is a notice to inform you of our policy
about all information that we record about you. It sets out the conditions
under which we may process any information that we collect from you, or that
you provide to us. It covers information that could identify you (“personal
information”) and information that could not. In the context of the law and
this notice, “process” means collect, store, transfer, use or otherwise act on
information.
2. We regret that if there are one or more
points below with which you are not happy, your only recourse is to leave our
website immediately.
3. We take seriously the protection of your
privacy and confidentiality. We understand that all visitors to our website are
entitled to know that their personal data will not be used for any purpose
unintended by them, and will not accidentally fall into the hands of a third
party.
4. We undertake to preserve the confidentiality
of all information you provide to us, and hope that you reciprocate.
5. Our policy complies with UK law accordingly
implemented, including that required by the EU General Data Protection
Regulation (GDPR).
6. The law requires us to tell you about your
rights and our obligations to you in regard to the processing and control of
your personal data. We do this now, by requesting that you read the information
provided at www.knowyourprivacyrights.org
7. Except as set out below, we do not share, or
sell, or disclose to a third party, any information collected through our
website.
The bases on which we process information about
you
The law requires us to determine under which of
six defined bases we process different categories of your personal information,
and to notify you of the basis for each category.
If a basis on which we process your personal
information is no longer relevant then we shall immediately stop processing
your data.
If the basis changes then if required by law we
shall notify you of the change and of any new basis under which we have
determined that we can continue to process your information.
1. Information we process because we have a
contractual obligation with you
When you create an account, buy a product or
service from us, or otherwise agree to our terms and conditions, a contract is
formed between you and us.
In order to carry out our obligations under that
contract we must process the information you give us. Some of this information
may be personal information.
We may use it in order to:
1.1. verify your identity for security purposes
1.2. sell products to you
1.3. provide you with our services
1.4. provide you with suggestions and advice on
products, services and how to obtain the most from using our website
We process this information on the basis there
is a contract between us, or that you have requested we use the information
before we enter into a legal contract.
Additionally, we may aggregate this information
in a general way and use it to provide class information, for example to
monitor our performance with respect to a particular service we provide. If we
use it for this purpose, you as an individual will not be personally
identifiable.
We shall continue to process this information
until the contract between us ends or is terminated by either party under the
terms of the contract.
2. Information we process with your consent
Through certain actions when otherwise there is
no contractual relationship between us, such as when you browse our website or
ask us to provide you more information about our business, including property
listing, business listings and our products and services, you provide your consent
to us to process information that may be personal information.
Wherever possible, we aim to obtain your
explicit consent to process this information, for example, by asking you to
agree to our use of cookies.
Sometimes you might give your consent
implicitly, such as when you send us a message by e-mail to which you would
reasonably expect us to reply.
Except where you have consented to our use of
your information for a specific purpose, we do not use your information in any
way that would identify you personally. We may aggregate it in a general way
and use it to provide class information, for example to monitor the performance
of a particular page on our website.
If you have given us explicit permission to do
so, we may from time to time pass your name and contact information to selected
associates whom we consider may provide services or products you would find
useful.
We continue to process your information on this
basis until you withdraw your consent or it can be reasonably assumed that your
consent no longer exists.
You may withdraw your consent at any time by
instructing us nikki@soldenhillhouse.co.uk However, if you do so, you may not
be able to use our website or our services further.
3. Information we process for the purposes of
legitimate interests
We may process information on the basis there is
a legitimate interest, either to you or to us, of doing so.
Where we process your information on this basis,
we do after having given careful consideration to:
• whether the same objective could be achieved
through other means
• whether processing (or not processing) might
cause you harm
• whether you would expect us to process your
data, and whether you would, in the round, consider it reasonable to do so
For example, we may process your data on this
basis for the purposes of:
• record-keeping for the proper and necessary
administration of our services.
• responding to unsolicited communication from
you to which we believe you would expect a response
• protecting and asserting the legal rights of
any party
• insuring against or obtaining professional
advice that is required to manage our business.
• protecting your interests where we believe we
have a duty to do so
4. Information we process because we have a
legal obligation
We are subject to the law like everyone else.
Sometimes, we must process your information in order to comply with a statutory
obligation.
For example, we may be required to give
information to legal authorities if they so request or if they have the proper
authorisation such as a search warrant or court order.
This may include your personal information.
Specific uses of information you provide to us
5. Information provided on the understanding
that it will be shared with a third party
Our website may allow you to post information
with a view to that information being read, copied, downloaded, or used by
other people.
Examples include:
5.1. posting a message on our forum
5.2. tagging an image
5.3. clicking on an icon next to another
visitor’s message to convey your agreement, disagreement or thanks
In posting personal information, it is up to you
to satisfy yourself about the privacy level of every person who might use it.
We do not specifically use this information
except to allow it to be displayed or shared.
We do store it, and we reserve a right to use it
in the future in any way we decide.
Once your information enters the public domain,
we have no control over what any individual third party may do with it. We
accept no responsibility for their actions at any time.
Provided your request is reasonable and there is
no legal basis for us to retain it, then at our discretion, we may agree to
your request to delete personal information that you have posted. You can make
a request by contacting us at nikki@soldenhillhouse.co.uk
6. Complaints regarding content on our website
Our website is a publishing medium. Anyone may
register and then publish information about himself, herself or some other
person.
We attempt to moderate user-generated content,
but we are not always able to do so as soon as that content is published.
If you complain about any of the content on our
website, we shall investigate your complaint.
If we feel it is justified or if we believe the
law requires us to do so, we shall remove the content while we investigate.
Free speech is a fundamental right, so we have
to make a judgment as to whose right will be obstructed: yours, or that of the
person who posted the content that offends you.
If we think your complaint is vexatious or
without any basis, we shall not correspond with you about it.
7. Sending a message to our support team
When you contact us, whether by telephone,
through our website or by e-mail, we collect the data you have given to us in
order to reply with the information you need.
We record your request and our reply in order to
increase the efficiency of our business.
We keep personally identifiable information
associated with your message, such as your name and email address so as to be
able to track our communications with you to provide a high quality service.
8. Complaining
When we receive a complaint, we record all the
information you have given to us.
We use that information to resolve your
complaint.
If your complaint reasonably requires us to
contact some other person, we may decide to give to that other person some of
the information contained in your complaint. We do this as infrequently as
possible, but it is a matter for our sole discretion as to whether we do give
information, and if we do, what that information is.
We may also compile statistics showing
information obtained from this source to assess the level of service we
provide, but not in a way that could identify you or any other person.
9. Affiliate and business partner information
This is information given to us by you in your
capacity as an affiliate of us or as a business partner.
It allows us to recognise visitors that you have
referred to us, and to credit to you commission due for such referrals. It also
includes information that allows us to transfer commission to you.
The information is not used for any other
purpose.
We undertake to preserve the confidentiality of
the information and of the terms of our relationship.
We expect any affiliate or partner to agree to
reciprocate this policy
