We realise and understand that children and young people, including those under 18 years of age (“minors”) may visit the website, or otherwise interact with us and our commercial partners.
It is our policy:
Some of the facilities or functions accessible through the website are not intended to be accessible by, nor are they actively advertised to, minors.
Parents or legal guardians should supervise minors when online and we recommend parental control tools be put in place. Any minor using the website and services offered is confirming that they have received the consent of their parent or a guardian to do so.
If we become aware that we have collected Personal Data from children without verification of parental consent, we take steps to remove that information from our servers.
We are committed to protecting the security of your personal data, which is held in secure data centres in the European Union in accordance with current legislative requirements, industry standards and technology. We will keep the personal data you have provided for as long as we have a relationship with you. Once that relationship has ended, we will retain it in accordance with this Policy only for as long as we reasonably require and it will then be deleted and destroyed.
PermiServ will also retain Usage Data for internal analysis purposes. Usage Data is generally retained for a shorter period of time, except when this data is used to strengthen the security or to improve the functionality of our Service, or we are legally obligated to retain this data for longer time periods.
The security of your data is important to us, but remember that no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. Once it is received, we store your personal data as set out in this Policy. Financial information you provide through the online service is also encrypted for additional security.
We cannot guarantee the complete security of our databases, nor that information you supply may not be intercepted while being transmitted to us over the internet. If we have given you a password to access certain parts of the website, you are solely responsible for keeping the password safe and make sure you use a secure browser.
We have already described in the ‘Marketing Information’ section of this Policy under what circumstances your personal information may be shared with our commercial and official partners, if you have agreed.
In addition, there are some other reasons why we may disclose your personal information to third parties and these are as follows:
Where we share your personal information with third parties we will take reasonable steps to ensure that it is properly protected and processed in accordance with this Policy.
This policy details the personal information that we hold and process for you. All requests set out in this section or other queries relating to this Policy should be addressed to info@permiserv.com. Please include your name, address, and/or email address when you contact us.
You have the right to see a copy of the information that we hold about you. We may charge a small fee towards the cost of administering any request you make which is manifestly unfounded, excessive or repetitive.
You have the right to ask that the information we hold about you by contacting us as above. We encourage you to update your personal information promptly if it changes.
You (and any parent/guardian of a minor) have the right to request that we close your account and/or delete your personal information from our database. We will make all reasonable efforts to comply with this request. However, it may not be possible to delete an entry without some delay and without retaining some residual personal information necessary for our legitimate interests, such as backups and records of deletions (including to ensure we no-longer communicate with you) or because we are required or permitted to retain personal information for other lawful requirements or as part of the servicing of any contractual agreement.
If you are dissatisfied with our response to any of your data privacy concerns you have the right to raise this with the Office of the Information Commissioner at Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9 5AF (https://ico.org.uk).
You may request that we stop processing your personal information. We may still store the data just not process it. We will restrict processing of personal data if its accuracy is contested and until its accuracy is verified or if you object to the processing and we are assessing whether there are legitimate grounds. Where personal data is disclosed to third parties, we will also notify them of the restriction to processing.
You can ask for your personal information in machine readable format or to have it sent to another organisation. This allows you to move, duplicate, or transfer your personal data easily from one IT environment to another in a safe and secure way, without hindrance to usability. The right of data portability only applies to personal data that you have provided to us, for data sets where consent has been given or for the performance of a contract and when processing is carried out by automated means. Data will be provided in an organised, frequently used and machine-readable form and will be provided for free.
You can object to us processing your personal information. You have the right to object to processing unless the reason for use is “legitimate interests”, “the performance of a task in the public interest” or “exercise of official authority, including profiling, for marketing or for scientific / historical research or statistical analysis.” You can object to us processing your data using the following contact details: info@permiserv.com.
We will respond to an objection within 30 days. In some cases we will process you personal information for Direct Marketing purposes using the “Legitimate Interest” basis of lawful processing. In this case, as soon as an objection is received the processing of your personal data will cease immediately with no exceptions or arguments. You cannot object to processing of your information for the purposes of research unless there are “grounds relating to his or her particular situation”.
Automated decision making and profiling – Protection against targeted marketing and decision making. Individuals have the right not to be subject to an agreement when it is focused on automated processing or results in a legal or equally important impact on the individual. You must provide suitable safeguards when processing personal data for the purposes of profiling. There must be a specified reason for the process and a breakdown of the possible consequences to guarantee fair and transparent processing. Suitable statistical / mathematical procedures should be in place.
There should also be suitable administrative and technical actions for the purpose of minimising risk and correcting errors. Individuals must be able to acquire human intervention, articulate their opinion and receive an explanation of the arrangement and be able to challenge it. Automated decisions must not involve or implicate a child, or be based on special categories of data processing unless explicit consent of the individual or their guardian has been given or the processing is needed for the purpose of public concern on the basis of EU / member state law. The right does not apply if the decision is needed to enter into a contract between yourself and the individual, is sanctioned by law or is based around explicit consent.
