Personal data used for marketing purposes

We strive to provide you with choices regarding certain personal data uses, particularly around marketing and advertising. We will get your express opt-in consent before we (1) contact you with marketing materials; or (2) share your personal data with any company outside the our group of companies for marketing purposes.

Controlling your personal data

You may choose to restrict the collection or use of your personal data in the following ways:

• if you have previously agreed to us using your personal information for direct marketing purposes, you may change your mind at any time by writing to or emailing us at sales@roadcraft.com or clicking the unsubscribe link which is in the footer of any marketing information we send to you.

Sharing your personal data

We will not sell or give your personal data to third parties unless we have your permission.

We may share your personal data with:

• business partners, suppliers and sub-contractors for the purpose of any contract we enter into with you;
• law enforcement agencies in connection with any investigation to help prevent unlawful activity; and/or
• analytics and search engine providers that assist us in the improvement and optimisation of our website.

We may disclose personal data to third parties:

• in the event that we sell or buy any business or assets, in which case, we may disclose your personal data to the prospective seller or buyer of such business assets;
• if our business or substantially all of its assets are acquired by a third party, in which case, personal data held by our business about you will be one of the transferred assets; or
• if we are under a duty to disclose or share your personal data in order to comply with any legal obligation or in order to enforce or apply our terms and conditions of website use and other agreements.

Security

Keeping your personal data secure is of paramount importance to us. We will use technical and organisational measures to safeguard your personal data against loss, destruction or damage. All supplied sensitive data is transmitted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology only to accessible by those authorized with special access rights to such systems, and are required to keep the information confidential.

While we take such steps, please remember that the transmission of personal data via the internet is not entirely secure and for this reason we cannot guarantee the security or integrity of any personal data that is transferred from you or to you via the internet.

Submitting someone else’s personal data through our website

We understand that there may be circumstances in which you need to provide us with the personal data of a person other than you. By doing so, you confirm that the other person has consented to you acting for them and to the processing of their personal data, and that you have informed them of our identity and the content of our terms and conditions of website use and this Policy, including the purposes for which their personal data will be processed by us. You also confirm that the other person has explicitly consented to our use and processing of their personal data (including sensitive personal data, where necessary).

Our terms and conditions of website use and this Policy will apply to any such third party personal data in the same manner that they apply to your own personal data.

Data Retention

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. We will not hold your personal data for more than a year after you make contact with us via the website unless we are required to under law.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

In some circumstances we may anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

Personal data being used outwith the European Economic Area (“EEA”)

We do not transfer your personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA).

• request access to your personal data.
• request correction of your personal data.
• request erasure of your personal data.
• object to processing of your personal data.
• request restriction of processing your personal data.
• request transfer of your personal data.
• right to withdraw consent.

No Fee Usually Required 

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.
 
What We May Need From You

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

Time Limit to Respond

We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.
