PRIVACY POLICY/NOTICE FOR MOLLART ENGINEERING LIMITED

This policy was last updated May 2018

MOLLART ENGINEERING LIMITED (‘Mollart’, ‘we’, ‘us’, and ‘our’) take data protection very seriously and we are committed to protecting your personal information.

This explains what information we gather about you, what we use that information for, and who we give that information to. It also sets out your rights in relation to your information, how long we keep it and who you can contact for more information.

It is our policy to collect only the minimum information required from you. If you believe we have collected excessive information about you, please contact us (see below) to raise any concerns you may have.

Although you do not have to provide any of your personal information to us, if we ask you to do so and you refuse, we may be unable to provide you with the information, goods or services you want from us.

What is personal information?

Personal information is anything that enables you to be identified or identifiable, such as your:
• First and last names
• Postal and email addresses
• Telephone numbers
• Identity documents (e.g. passports & driving licence)
• Identity numbers (e.g. National Insurance and Bank accounts)
• Career & educational documents (e.g. CVs & qualifications)
• Contact information
Your personal information is sometimes called “personal data”. We collectively refer to handling, collecting, protecting or storing your personal information as ‘processing’.

Collecting personal information

Below are just some examples of how you may provide personal information to us:

• Asking us to provide products to you
• Contacting us
• Searching and browsing our website
• Submitting CVs or work history information to us
• Providing us with business cards or other contact information

Using personal information

When you provide personal information to us, we may use it for any of the purposes described below or as stated at the point we collect it from you (or as may obvious to you from the context of collection), including:

1. To provide products that you have requested
2. To develop our businesses and services
3. To consider whether to offer someone employment with us
4. To administer and manage our website
5. Any other purposes for which personal information has been provided to us, including any of the purposes given in the ‘Collection of personal information’ section above

We do not collect personally identifying information for sale to third parties.

Legal grounds for processing personal information

We rely on one or more of the following processing conditions:

• To perform our contractual obligations to you; and/or
• To satisfy any legal and regulatory obligations to which we are subject; and/or
• To satisfy our legitimate interests in the effective delivery of information and services to you and in the effective and lawful operation of our businesses (where this does not interfere with your rights); and/or
• When you have agreed to us processing your personal information.

Security of personal information

We have implemented generally accepted standards of technology and operational security in order to protect personally identifiable information from loss, misuse, alteration or destruction.

Only authorised persons are provided access to personally identifiable information we have collected, and such individuals have agreed to maintain the confidentiality of this information.

Although we use appropriate security measures once we have received your personal data, the transmission of data over the internet (including by e-mail) is never completely secure.

We endeavour to protect personal data, but we cannot guarantee the security of data transmitted to or by us.

Sharing personal information

We may transfer, share or disclose the personal data we collect from you to third parties (other organisations or individuals) for:

• The purposes for which the information has been submitted
• The purposes listed above under ‘Use of personal information’
• The administration and maintenance of our website and/or
• Other internal or administrative purposes

We also may transfer share or disclose personal data to third party service providers of identity management, website hosting and management, data analysis, data backup, security and storage services.

These third party providers may use their own third party subcontractors that have access to personal data (sub-processors). It is our policy to use only third party providers that are bound to maintain appropriate levels of security and confidentiality, to process personal information only as instructed by us, and to flow those same obligations down to their sub-processors.

Other disclosures

We may also disclose personal information to third parties under the following circumstances:

• When explicitly requested by you
• When required to deliver products requested by you
• As otherwise set out in this privacy policy.

We may also disclose your personal information to law enforcement and other government agencies and to third parties, as required by and/or in accordance with applicable law.

The third parties we may transfer share or disclose the personal data we collect from you to are:
• Third party outsourced IT providers where we have an appropriate processing agreement (or similar protections) in place.
• Third party service providers who perform functions on our behalf (including external consultants, business associates and professional advisers such as lawyers, auditors and accountants, technical support functions and IT consultants carrying out testing and development work on our business technology systems);
• Tax, audit, or other authorities, when we believe in good faith that the law or other regulation requires us to share this data (for example, because of a request by a tax authority or in connection with any anticipated litigation);

International transfers of personal information

We do not send personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA), but if a situation arose where this was to occur ,where we collect your personal information within the EEA, any transfer to outside the EEA will be only:
• To you
• To a recipient located in a country which provides an adequate level of protection for your personal information; or
• Under a contractual agreement which satisfies EU requirements for the transfer of personal data outside the EEA

Retention of personal information

We will retain your personal information only for as long as we need it, given the purposes for which it was collected, or as required to do so by law.

Normally, this means we will retain your personal information for seven years. For more information please contact us to request a copy of our retention policy.

Marketing

Where we are legally required to obtain your consent to provide you with marketing materials, we will only provide you with such marketing materials if you have provided consent for us to do so.

You have certain rights in relation to the personal information we hold about you. In particular, you have the right to:

• Request a copy of personal information we hold about you;
