Duration of storage

We will store your data:

  • If you have consented to the processing of your data, until you withdraw this consent, otherwise after 6 months, or, depending on the specific type of data, in accordance with the relevant storage period prescribed by law.
  • If we need the data to implement a contract, at most for as long as the contractual relationship with you is in effect, or for as long as legal retention periods are applicable. If we use your data on the basis of our legitimate interests, at most so long as it does not outweigh your interest to have this data deleted or anonymised.

How do we store your personal information?

We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure the security of the personal information we collect and store about you. We will use all reasonable endeavours to protect your personal information from unauthorised disclosure and / or access, however unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure and we have no control over the privacy of any communication while it is in transit to us. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your information while it is being transmitted to our site. Accordingly, any transmission is at your own risk. All information you provide to us is stored in secure managed servers and we will limit access to your personal data to those of our employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. All information sent to us via forms is encrypted using SSL technology making the data unreadable for any person or robot trying to intercept it until it reaches the intended recipient (us).

Where we are legally required to do so, we will notify you and any applicable data protection authority or other regulator should there be an actual or suspected personal data breach involving your personal information.

No fee usually required

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your 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. If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, or you have any concerns about how we process your information, please shirley@naebother.com so that we can investigate and hopefully resolve your concerns. If we are unable to satisfactorily deal with your concerns then you have the right to lodge a complaint with the appropriate data protection authority.

How to unsubscribe or withdraw consent
