3. What Does This Policy Cover?

This Privacy Policy applies only to the Customer’s use of the Site and/or the services provided by KeepMe. The Site may contain links to other websites. Please note that KeepMe has no control over how the Customer’s data is collected, stored, or used by other websites and KeepMe advises the Customer to check the privacy policies of any such websites before providing any data to them.

4. What Is Personal Data?

Personal data means all such “personal data” as is defined by the General Data Protection Regulation (EU Regulation 2016/679) (the “GDPR”) for as long as it is directly applicable in the United Kingdom and any successor legislation in the United Kingdom to the GDPR, and the Data Protection Act 2018 (collectively, “the Data Protection Legislation”). The GDPR defines Personal Data as ‘any information relating to an identifiable person who can be directly or indirectly identified in particular by reference to an identifier’.

Personal data is, in simpler terms, any information about the Customer that enables the Customer to be identified. Personal data covers obvious information such as the Customer’s name and contact details, but it also covers less obvious information such as identification numbers, electronic location data, and other online identifiers.

5. What Are My Rights?

Under the Data Protection Legislation, the Customer has the following rights, which KeepMe will always work to uphold:

a) The right to be informed about the collection and use of the Customer’s personal data. This Privacy Policy should tell the Customer everything the Customer need to know, but the Customer can always contact KeepMe to find out more or to ask any questions using the details in Part 15.

b) The right to access the personal data that KeepMe hold about the Customer. Part 13 will tell the Customer how to do this.

c) The right to have the Customer’s personal data rectified if any of the Customer’s personal data held by KeepMe is inaccurate or incomplete. Please contact KeepMe using the details in Part 15 to find out more.

d) The right to be forgotten, i.e. the right to ask KeepMe to delete or otherwise dispose of any of the Customer’s personal data that KeepMe hold. Please contact KeepMe using the details in Part 15 to find out more.

e) The right to restrict (i.e. prevent) the processing of the Customer’s personal data.

f) The right to object to KeepMe using the Customer’s personal data for a particular purpose or purposes.

g) The right to withdraw consent. This means that, if KeepMe is relying on the Customer’s consent as the legal basis for using the Customer’s personal data, the Customer is free to withdraw that consent at any time.

h) The right to data portability. This means that, if the Customer has provided personal data to KeepMe directly, KeepMe is using it with the Customer’s consent or for the performance of a contract, and that data is processed using automated means, the Customer can ask KeepMe for a copy of that personal data to re-use with another service or business in many cases.

i) Rights relating to automated decision-making and profiling.

For more information about the use of the Customer’s personal data or exercising the Customer’s rights as outlined above, please contact KeepMe using the details provided in Part 15.

The Customer will not be sent any unlawful marketing or spam. KeepMe will always work to fully protect the Customer’s rights and comply with the obligations under the Data Protection Legislation and the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003, and the Customer will always have the opportunity to opt-out. KeepMe will always obtain the Customer’s express opt-in consent before sharing the Customer’s personal data with third parties for marketing purposes and the Customer will be able to opt-out at any time.

Third Parties whose content and/or services appears on the Site may use third-party Cookies, as detailed below in Part 14. Please refer to Part 14 for more information on controlling cookies. Please note that KeepMe do not control the activities of such third parties, nor the data that they collect and use themselves, and KeepMe advise the Customer to check the privacy policies of any such third parties.

KeepMe use the following automated systems for carrying out certain kinds of decision-making and/or profiling. If at any point the Customer wish to query any action that KeepMe take on the basis of this or wish to request ‘human intervention’ (i.e. have someone review the action themselves, rather than relying only on the automated method), the Data Protection Legislation gives the Customer the right to do so. Please contact KeepMe to find out more using the details in Part 15.

KeepMe will only use the Customer’s personal data for the purpose(s) for which it was originally collected unless KeepMe reasonably believe that another purpose is compatible with that or those original purpose(s) and need to use the Customer’s personal data for that purpose.

9. How and Where Do You Store or Transfer My Personal Data?

KeepMe may store or transfer some or all of the Customer’s personal data in countries that are not part of the European Economic Area (the “EEA” consists of all EU member states, plus Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein). These are known as “third countries” and may not have data protection laws that are as strong as those in the UK and/or the EEA. This means that KeepMe will take additional steps in order to ensure that the Customer’s personal data is treated just as safely and securely as it would be within the UK and under the Data Protection Legislation as follows:

KeepMe share the Customer’s data within the group of companies of which KeepMe is a part. Where this involves the transfer of personal data outside the EEA, the group ensures that personal data is protected by requiring all companies within the group to follow the same rules with respect to personal data usage. These are known as “binding corporate rules”. More information on binding corporate rules is available from the European Commission.

Where KeepMe transfer the Customer’s data to a third party based in the US, the data may be protected if they are part of the EU-US Privacy Shield. This requires that third party to provide data protection to standards similar to those in Europe. More information is available from the European Commission.

Please contact KeepMe using the details below in Part 15 for further information about the particular data protection mechanisms used by KeepMe when transferring the Customer’s personal data to a third country.

The security of the Customer’s personal data is essential to KeepMe, and to protect the Customer’s data, KeepMe take a number of important measures, including the following:

• limiting access to the Customer’s personal data to those employees, agents, contractors, and other third parties with a legitimate need to know and ensuring that they are subject to duties of confidentiality;

• procedures for dealing with data breaches (the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of, or access to, the Customer’s personal data) including notifying the Customer and/or the Information Commissioner’s Office where KeepMe is legally required to do so;

10. Do You Share My Personal Data?

KeepMe will not share any of the Customer’s personal data with any third parties for any purposes, subject to the following exceptions.

KeepMe may share the Customer’s personal data with other companies in the KeepMe group for administrative purposes. This includes subsidiaries of KeepMe and the holding company of KeepMe and its subsidiaries.

If any of the Customer’s personal data is shared with a third party, KeepMe will take steps to ensure that the Customer’s personal data is handled safely, securely, and in accordance with the Customer’s rights, the obligations, and the third party’s obligations under the law, as described above in Part 9.

If any personal data is transferred outside of the EEA, KeepMe will take suitable steps in order to ensure that the Customer’s personal data is treated just as safely and securely as it would be within the UK and under the Data Protection Legislation, as explained above in Part 9.

If KeepMe sell, transfer, or merge parts of the business or assets, the Customer’s personal data may be transferred to a third party. Any new owner of the business may continue to use the Customer’s personal data in the same way(s) that KeepMe have used it, as specified in this Privacy Policy.

In some limited circumstances, KeepMe may be legally required to share certain personal data, which might include the Customer’ss, if KeepMe is involved in legal proceedings or complying with legal obligations, a court order, or the instructions of a government authority.

11. How Can I Control My Personal Data?

11.1 In addition to the Customer’s rights under the Data Protection Legislation, set out in Part 5, the Customer may be given options to restrict the use of the Customer’s personal data via the Customer account log-in control panel. In particular, KeepMe aim to give the Customer strong controls on the use of the Customer’s data for direct marketing purposes (including the ability to opt-out of receiving emails from KeepMe which the Customer may do by unsubscribing using the links provided in emails or at the point of providing the Customer’s details and by managing the Customer’s Account).

11.2 The Customer may also wish to sign up to one or more of the preference services operating in the UK: The Telephone Preference Service (“the TPS”), the Corporate Telephone Preference Service (“the CTPS”), and the Mailing Preference Service (“the MPS”). These may help to prevent the Customer receiving unsolicited marketing. Please note, however, that these services will not prevent the Customer from receiving marketing communications that the Customer has consented to receiving.

12. Can I Withhold Information?

The Customer may access the Site without providing any personal data at all. However, to make use of the services provided by KeepMe the Customer may be required to submit or allow for the collection of certain data.

The Customer may restrict the use of Cookies. For more information, see Part 14.

13. How Can I Access My Personal Data?

If the Customer want to know what personal data KeepMe have about the Customer, the Customer can ask KeepMe for details of that personal data and for a copy of it (where any such personal data is held). This is known as a “subject access request”.

All subject access requests should be made in writing and sent to the email or postal addresses shown in Part 15.

There is not normally any charge for a subject access request. If the Customer’s request is ‘manifestly unfounded or excessive’ (for example, if the Customer make repetitive requests) a fee may be charged to cover the administrative costs in responding.

KeepMe will respond to the Customer’s subject access request as soon as reasonably possible and, in any case, not more than one month of receiving it. Normally, KeepMe aim to provide a complete response, including a copy of the Customer’s personal data within that time. In some cases, however, particularly if the Customer’s request is more complex, more time may be required up to a maximum of three months from the date KeepMe receive the Customer’s request. The Customer will be kept fully informed of the progress.
