We will never sell any of your personal data to a third party. However, in order for us to provide our services to you, we share your personal data with our trusted third party service providers, as detailed below.

Whenever we share your personal data, we put safeguards in place which require these organisations to keep your data safe and to ensure that they do not use your personal data for their own marketing purposes.

EXAMPLES OF THE SORT OF THIRD PARTIES WE WORK WITH ARE:

• Delivery companies.
• IT companies who support our business systems and databases.
• Marketing companies who help manage our communications with you.

It is in our legitimate interests as a business to work with these service providers since we may not have the capabilities to provide these services ourselves.

We may need to disclose your personal data to our insurers where we believe that it is required under our contractual relationship with our insurance provider.

TRANSFER OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA OUTSIDE THE EEA

We may need to transfer your personal data outside of the European Economic Area (EEA) for example to the USA, in the following circumstance:

• Where we work with a supplier which processes some of its data outside of the EEA.

These countries may not have the same data protection laws as the UK and the EEA so your personal data may not be subject to the same protections. In such cases we will always make sure that any transfer of your personal data is subject to appropriate safeguards to ensure it is handled in accordance with the rules which apply in the EEA and under the guiding principles set out in this privacy policy.

In broad terms, we will only retain your personal data for as long as is necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. This means that the retention periods will vary according to the type of the data and the reason that we have the data in the first place.

We have procedures in place regarding our retention periods which we keep under review taking into account our reasons for processing your personal data and the legal basis for doing so.

You have a number of rights relating to your personal information and what happens to it. You are entitled to:

• access personal data we hold about you
• require us to correct any mistakes in your personal data
• require us to delete personal data concerning you in certain situations where there is no good reason for us to continue to process it
• object at any time to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes, normally by clicking the “unsubscribe” link in an email we have sent you
• object in certain other situations to our continued processing of your personal data and
• otherwise restrict or temporarily stop our processing of your personal data in certain circumstances.

You have the right to request a copy of any information about you that we hold at any time, and also to have that information corrected if it is inaccurate. To make such a request, please email us

If you feel that your data has not been handled correctly, or you are unhappy with our response to any requests you have made to us regarding the use of your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint. Please email dumforter@matchstickmonkey.com

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make significant changes we will let you know but please regularly check this policy to ensure you are aware of the most updated version.
