  1. Sharing of personal information

The information you provide us with may be shared with employees throughout BeDigital Ltd and will be processed in accordance with this privacy policy, the Data Protection Act 1998, and other subsequent applicable UK legislation such as the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) that is effective from May 25th 2018.

We share your personal information with certain third parties who provide services on our behalf. They only have access to the personal information they need to perform those services. They are required to keep your personal information confidential and may not use it other than as we ask them to and always in accordance with this privacy policy.

The third parties who provide services on our behalf fall into the following categories:

  • Those helping us to deliver products to you;
  • Third parties that help us with, processing product purchases, audit services, administrative services, IT technologies (e.g. data storage), security services and insurance claims.
  • We will also share your personal information if we are required to do so by law, including in response to a legal process, such as a court order or to comply with other national or local laws. 

We take responsibility for the personal information that you share with us and require those third parties with whom we share your personal information to apply the same level of privacy protection as is contained in this privacy policy.

We are committed to protecting your personal information. We use appropriate technical and organisational measures. We protect your personal information using a combination of physical and IT security controls, including access controls that restrict and manage the way in which your personal information and data is processed, managed and handled. We also ensure that our staff are adequately trained in protecting your personal information. Our procedures mean that we may occasionally request proof of identity before we share your personal information with you.

In the unlikely event that we do suffer a security breach which compromises our protection of your personal information and we need to let you know about it, we will do so.

We host and store the information in the European Economic Area (EEA). Those third parties that we share your personal information with may handle or transfer your personal information outside of the UK, and outside of the EEA, to other countries in which they have facilities.

We will make sure that both any transfer of your personal information by us or by the third parties that we share your personal information with, and our handling of your personal information, complies with those laws which apply to us. In any case, our transfer, storage and handling of your personal information will continue to be governed by this privacy policy.
