    International data

    Countries outside of the European Economic Area (EEA) do not always offer the same levels of protection to your personal data, so European law has prohibited transfers of personal data outside of the EEA unless the transfer meets certain criteria.

     Some of our third parties service providers are based outside the European Economic Area (EEA) so their processing of your personal data will involve a transfer of data outside the EEA.

    Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we do our best to ensure a similar degree of security of data by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is in place:

    • If we use US-based providers that are part of EU-US Privacy Shield, we may transfer data to them, as they have equivalent safeguards in place; or
    • We will only transfer your personal data to countries that the European Commission have approved as providing an adequate level of protection for personal data by; or
    • Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts or codes of conduct or certification mechanisms approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe;

     

    If none of the above safeguards is available, we may request your explicit consent to the specific transfer. You will have the right to withdraw this consent at any time.

    Your data and countries outside of Europe

    The personal data we collect from you may be transferred to, and stored at, destinations outside the European Economic Area ("EEA") using legally-provided mechanisms to lawfully transfer data across borders. It may also be processed by staff operating outside the EEA who work for us or for one of our suppliers. Such staff may be engaged in, among other things, the fulfilment of your order, the processing of your payment details and the provision of support services. We will take all steps necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Notice.

     If we transfer personal data outside the EEA, we will ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring appropriate safeguards, as required by law, are in place. This may include using specific contractual clauses approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection as it has in Europe. More information about these is available here http://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/en/TXT/?uri=CELEX:32010D0087

    Please contact us if you want further information on the countries to which we may transfer personal data and the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data outside the EEA.

    Data profiling and retention

    Communications are designed to tell you about our benefits and any offers we think you may be interested in. The information we have about you will tailor the ads and content to ensure that our offers and those of third parties are as relevant to you as possible.

     Your personal data will be retained indefinitely indefinitely to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. Your personal data could be anonymised for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

    Customers may return items to us many years after buying from us for the first time and our suppression list ensures we do not contact you when you have opted out.

    The law requires us to keep basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial and Transaction Data) for tax purposes for six years after they stop being customers.

    Security Policy

    Payment to our website site is made via an https secure web server.

     Security measures are in place to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, altered, disclosed, or accessed without authorisation. We also allow access to your personal data only to those employees and partners who have a business need to know such data. They will only process your personal data on our instructions, and they must keep it confidential.

     A secure web server is where secure information that you provide to complete a purchase is encrypted so that it cannot be easily accessed by other people such as fraudsters.

    Sensitive and private data exchange between the Site and its Users happens over a EV SSL secured communication channel and is encrypted and protected.

    We have procedures in place to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach if we are legally required to.

     Your legal rights under data protection laws

    Under data protection laws you have rights in relation to your personal data.

    You can see more about these rights at:

    https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/guide-to-the-general-data-protection-regulation-gdpr/individual-rights/

    These include the right to:

    • Request access to your personal data and correction of your personal data.
    • Request erasure of your personal data. If you request your data to be deleted (that not required by our legal obligations) this may invalidate any product guarantees and mean that we can not comply with any wishes not to be communicated with in the future. This is because we occasionally purchase third party data which is usually de-duped against our suppression list ie those people who have withdrawn consent. If we do not hold your data on this list we can not remove you from the mailing.
    • Object to processing of your personal data.
    • Request restriction of processing your personal data.
    • Request transfer of your personal data.
    • Where the lawful ground of processing is consent, to withdraw consent.

     

    To exercise any of the rights set out above, please email us at info@frederickgrove.com

    Although a fee will not be charged to access your personal data (or any other rights) we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is deemed unreasonable on the following basis: clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive or refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

    All necessary details will be taken to ensure we can identify you before passing across any data or personal information to do our upmost to prevent your data from being fraudulently taken or going to someone else.

    We aim respond to legitimate requests within one month from receipt of receiving them but it could take longer. In this case, we will notify you.

    You have the right to complain about the way that we collect your data, for example if you are unhappy, to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection issues (www.ico.org.uk). We should be grateful if you would contact us first if you do have a complaint so that we can try to resolve it for you.
