Your rights under Data Protection Law
We operate under the Data Protection Act 2018 (‘DPA’) and the European General Data Protection Regulation (‘GDPR’).
The DPA and GDPR apply to ‘personal data’ we process and the data protection principles set out the main responsibilities we are responsible for.
We must ensure that personal data shall be:-
• Processed lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner
• Collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and not further processed in a manner that is
incompatible with those purposes
• Adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purposes for which they are
processed
• Accurate and where necessary kept up to date
• Kept for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data are processed. We operate
a data retention policy that ensures we meet this obligation. We only retain personal data for the purposes
for which it was collected and for a reasonable period thereafter where there is a legitimate business need
or legal obligation to do so. For detail of our current retention policy contact our privacy officer at
info@tattoncommercialfinance.co.uk
• Processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data, including protection against
unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage, using appropriate
technical or organisational measures
We ensure lawful processing of personal data by obtaining consent; or where there is a contractual obligation to do so in providing appropriate products and services; or where processing the data is necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interests in providing appropriate products and services.
In the majority of cases we process personal data based on your contract with us. In other cases, we process personal data only where there are legitimate grounds for so doing.
To meet our Data Protection obligations, we have established comprehensive and proportionate governance measures.
We ensure data protection compliance across the organisation through:-
• Implementing appropriate technical and organisational measures including internal data protection policies,
staff training, internal audits of processing activities, and reviews of internal HR policies
• Maintaining relevant documentation on processing activities
• Implementing measures that meet the principles of data protection by design and data protection by default
including data minimisation, pseudonymisation, transparency, deploying the most up-to-date data security
protocols and using data protection impact assessments across our organisation and in any third party
arrangements
Under the GDPR You have the following specific rights in respect of the personal data we process:-
1. The right to be informed about how we use personal data – This Privacy Statement explains who we are; the
purposes for which we process personal data and our legitimate interests in so doing; the categories of
data we process; third party disclosures; and details of any transfers of personal data outside the UK
2. The right of access to the personal data we hold. In most cases this will be free of charge and must be
provided within one month of receipt
3. The right to rectification where data are inaccurate or incomplete. In such cases we shall make any
amendments or additions within one month of your request
4. The right to erasure of personal data, but only in very specific circumstances, typically where the
personal data are no longer necessary in relation to the purpose for which it was originally collected or
processed; or, in certain cases where we have relied on consent to process the data, when that consent is
withdrawn and there is no other legitimate reason for continuing to process that data; or when the
individual objects to the processing and there is no overriding legitimate interest for continuing the
processing.
5. The right to restrict processing, for example while we are reviewing the accuracy or completeness of data,
or deciding on whether any request for erasure is valid. In such cases we shall continue to store the data,
but not further process it until such time as we have resolved the issue
6. The right to data portability which, subject to a number of qualifying conditions, allows individuals to
obtain and reuse their personal data for their own purposes across different services
7. The right to object in cases where processing is based on legitimate interests, where our requirement to
process the data is overridden by the rights of the individual concerned; or for the purposes of direct
marketing (including profiling); or for processing for purposes of scientific / historical research and
statistics, unless this is for necessary for the performance of a public interest task
8. Rights in relation to automated decision making and profiling
