The principles set out in this Privacy Notice apply to all instances in which THCTC receives your personal data as a Data Controller for the purposes described in this notice. Those purposes are processing of data to participate in the various activities available on this website or as mentioned below.
If you have any requests concerning your personal data or any queries about our practices, please contact THCTC using the contact details given in Paragraph 5 below.
You can provide your personal data if you wish. We only collect personal data that YOU want to provide to us or that is needed to provide (and improve) our service to you. We collect personal data directly such as name, address, and e-mail address as well as connection and system information. The legal basis for the processing of your personal data is your consent and/or any other applicable legal basis, such as our legitimate interest in engaging in commerce and offering products and services of value to you. Any consent you provide may be withdrawn at any time by following the contact methods listed in Paragraph 5.
You may want to give us your e-mail address, name, telephone number etc. so that we can provide you with information on our products; enter you into our competitions or surveys; respond to your questions or comments; or just keep you updated about exciting THCTC developments that you are interested in. Some website functionality may be unavailable to users who do not provide their data, or who do not consent to the use of Cookies and similar technologies on this site. Additionally, if you choose not to provide your personal data, we will not be able to provide you with our products or services or with other support or responses.
THCTC takes security measures in line with data protection regulations. THCTC has security measures in place designed to prevent data loss, to preserve data integrity, and to regulate access to the data. Only authorized THCTC employees, and authorized employees of our Third-Party service providers’ processing data on our behalf, have access to your personal data. All THCTC employees who have access to your personal data are required to adhere to the THCTC Privacy Notice and all third-party service providers are requested by THCTC to ensure that any of their employees who have access to your personal data have signed non-disclosure agreements. In addition, contracts are in place with such third-party service providers acting as data processors for THCTC that have access to your personal data, to ensure that the level of security required is in place, and that your personal data is processed only as instructed by THCTC.
Your personal data will only be used for the purposes for which you provided it to THCTC, as indicated to you at the time you provided your personal data. It will also be used to administer, support, and obtain feedback on the level of our services, to help prevent breaches of security, the law, or our contract terms, and for direct marketing purposes. It may also be disclosed, including a disclosure to entities based outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”), to third parties (as part of the information generally contained in business) in the event of a sale of the business, or a reorganisation of the business, or as otherwise required or permitted by law or applicable regulator.
THCTC will never share your personal data with any Third-Party (i.e., a party other than an entity within THCTC) business organisation that intends to use it for their own purposes, other than as required by law.
With your consent, THCTC may share your personal data with Third-Parties (i.e. parties other than entities within THCTC) such as those who assist us in providing the products and services and who perform technical operations, but only in the strictly limited circumstances set out below:
You have the right to ask THCTC to provide you with all the information it stores on you. If you wish to access your personal data, you can click on “My Account” where you will have the opportunity to update your personal data or preferences. You have the right to ask THCTC to rectify, block, complete and delete your personal data, to restrict its use, and to port your data to another organization. You have the right to request additional information about the handling of your personal data. You also have the right to object to the processing of your data by THCTC in some circumstances and, where we have asked for consent to process your data, to withdraw this consent. Additionally, you may contact our Data Controller at louisa@thctc.co.uk if you would like assistance with any of the rights.
There are exceptions to these rights, however. For example, access to personal data may be denied in some circumstances if making the information available would reveal personal information about another person or if THCTC is legally prevented from disclosing such information. In addition, THCTC may be able to retain data even if you withdraw your consent, where THCTC can demonstrate that it has a legal requirement to process your data.
Your personal data may be transferred across international borders. It may be transferred to countries that have different levels of data protection laws to the country from where you submitted your personal data. THCTC (as Data Controller and Data Exporter) has, where local data protection regulations so require, put in place security measures for the export of personal data from its authority. Where local data protection regulations so require, THCTC has made arrangements with entities receiving your personal that they shall ensure that security measures are in place, and that your personal data is processed only in accordance with EU Data Protection laws.
