This Privacy Policy explains how Hallam Safety Solutions ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses and protects your personal data when you visit https://hallamsafetysolutions.co.uk or otherwise interact with us. We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your data in line with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
Who we are
Hallam Safety Solutions is the "data controller" responsible for your personal data. This means we decide how and why your personal data is processed. Our contact details are:
- Email: enquiries@hallamsafetysolutions.co.uk
- Address: 66 Paul Street, London, England, United Kingdom, EC2A 4NA
The personal data we collect
Depending on how you use our website and services, we may collect and process the following categories of personal data:
- Identity data (such as your name or username)
- Contact data (such as your email address, phone number and postal address)
- Technical data (such as your IP address, browser type and device information)
- Usage data (such as information about how you use our website)
- Communications data (the content of messages you send us via forms or email)
- Marketing data (your preferences for receiving marketing from us)
How we collect your personal data
We collect personal data:
- Directly from you — for example when you complete a form, send us an email, create an account, or make a purchase.
- Automatically as you use our website — for example through cookies and similar technologies that collect technical and usage data. See our cookie policy for details.
- From third parties — for example analytics providers, payment providers, or publicly available sources.
How and why we use your personal data
Under the UK GDPR we must always have a lawful basis for using your personal data. We rely on the following bases:
- Consent — where you have given us clear consent to process your personal data for a specific purpose (for example, non-essential cookies or marketing). You can withdraw consent at any time.
- Contract — where processing is necessary to enter into or perform a contract with you (for example, to fulfil an order or respond to your enquiry).
- Legal obligation — where we need to process your personal data to comply with the law (for example, keeping accounting records).
- Legitimate interests — where processing is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and your rights do not override those interests.
- Our legitimate interests include: operating, securing and improving our website; responding to your enquiries; and understanding how visitors use our site so we can make it better
Marketing communications
Where you have given your consent, or where otherwise permitted by law, we may send you marketing communications about our products and services. In line with the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), you can withdraw your consent or opt out of marketing at any time — by using the unsubscribe link in any marketing email, or by contacting us using the details in this policy. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdrew it.
Cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies to operate our website and, with your consent, to analyse traffic and personalise content. For full details of the cookies we use and how to manage them, please see our Cookie Policy.
Who we share your personal data with
We do not sell your personal data. We may share it with the following categories of recipient, who are required to keep it secure and only use it for the purposes we specify:
- Website hosting and infrastructure providers
- Email and communications providers
- Analytics providers (such as Google Analytics), where you have consented
- Payment providers, where you make a purchase
- Professional advisers (such as accountants and legal advisers)
- Regulators and law enforcement, where required by law
We may also disclose your personal data where we are required to do so by law, or to protect our rights, property or safety.
International transfers
We store and process your personal data within the UK and, where relevant, the European Economic Area (EEA). We do not transfer your personal data to countries outside the UK or EEA. If this changes, we will update this policy and ensure appropriate safeguards are in place.
How long we keep your personal data
We keep your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including to satisfy any legal, accounting or reporting requirements. When we no longer need your personal data, we securely delete or anonymise it.
How we protect your personal data
We have put in place appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against accidental or unlawful loss, access, alteration or disclosure. We limit access to your personal data to those who have a genuine business need to know it. Where we are legally required to do so, we will notify you and the relevant regulator of any suspected personal data breach.
Automated decision-making
We do not make decisions about you based solely on automated processing (including profiling) that produce legal or similarly significant effects.
Children's privacy
Our website and services are not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will delete it.
Your rights
Under the UK GDPR you have the following rights in relation to your personal data:
- The right to be informed about how we use your personal data (which this policy provides).
- The right of access to a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- The right to rectification of inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
- The right to erasure ("the right to be forgotten") in certain circumstances.
- The right to restrict processing in certain circumstances.
- The right to data portability for data you provided to us, where processing is based on consent or a contract and carried out by automated means.
- The right to object to processing based on our legitimate interests, and to direct marketing at any time.
- Rights relating to automated decision-making and profiling.
- The right to withdraw consent at any time, where we rely on your consent.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at enquiries@hallamsafetysolutions.co.uk. We will respond within one month. You will not usually have to pay a fee, although we may charge a reasonable fee or refuse to act if a request is clearly unfounded or excessive.
