This privacy notice tells you what to expect when Seccom Group collects personal information. It applies to information we collect about:
When someone visits any of our websites we use a third-party service, Google Analytics, to collect standard internet log information and details of visitor behaviour patterns. We do this to find out things such as the number of visitors to the various parts of the sites. This information is only processed in a way which does not identify anyone.
We do not make, and do not allow Google to make, any attempt to find out the identities of those visiting our website. If we do want to collect personally identifiable information through our websites, we will be up front about this. We will make it clear when we collect personal information and will explain what we intend to do with it.
If you enter into an agreement with us for services, we collect enough information to enable us to process your order and/or provide you with the services you require. We collect and process this information using the ‘performance of a contract’ legal basis so that we may provide the services to you.
Unless you have specifically opted in to receive information about products and services from Seccom Group and or GDPR Auditing Ltd. during the contract negotiation and sign off process we will not send you any communication other than what is required for the supply of the service, these messages may include details about new products and features available.
We keep this data for as long as we are providing the service to you, after you have stopped using the service(s) we keep the data for 12 months, then we anonymise it removing any personal information. Any data classified as financial that we are required to keep will be retained according to UK HMRC rules, currently 6 years plus current year.
If you are a visitor to this site and only every browse or watch live or recorded videos then we store none of your personal information.
If you are watching a video and wish to make a donation then we need to collect the payment information and a small amount of information that enables us to collect gift aid if you wish us to do so.
Donations are financial transactions and as such we need to keep the information for HMRC reporting purposes.
This is the same for gift aid.
If you decide to enable gift aid on your donations, we keep that agreement relative to the financial year of your donation.
Any email sent to us, including any attachments, may be monitored and used by us for reasons of security and for monitoring compliance with organisation policy. Email monitoring or blocking software may also be used. Please be aware that you have a responsibility to ensure that any email you send to us is within the bounds of the law.
If we consider the contents of an email to contain personal data we have not requested or more detail than we need then we will delete some or all of it immediately and request another with less personal details, or no personal details.
Whether you email us directly or via any of our generic addresses, we will only use the information you provide to respond to your enquiry and will keep it for 14 days after the last correspondence with you and then remove it, unless you become a client and then your data will be stored and processed in line with this privacy policy and any Terms and Conditions related to the services.
