Privacy and Cookies Statement
Privacy Policy
Budge PR is committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected. Any personally identifiable information we ask you to provide when using this website will only be used in accordance with this privacy statement.
This privacy policy explains how we use any personal information we collect about you when you use this website.
What information do we collect about you?
We collect information about you when you contact us or place an order for our services. We also collect information when you voluntarily complete customer surveys, provide feedback and participate in competitions. Website usage information is collected using cookies.
We also use your information to verify your identity where required, contact you by post, email or telephone and to maintain our records.
As part of our distribution effectiveness appraisals, anonymized data is collected via Google Analytics and this sends back non-personalised data information which populates monthly Google Analytics reports as a direct result of user-engagement. No personal data is shared from Google Analytics and therefore no data from Budge PR is shared.
How will we use the information about you?
We collect information about you to process your order, manage your account and, if you agree, to contact you about other news, products and services we think may be of interest to you.
We use your information collected from the website to personalise your repeat visits to our website.
We will never pass your personal information to any third party, other than as set out in this Privacy Policy, but reserve the right to access and disclose personal information to comply with applicable laws and lawful government requests; requests by the police investigating suspected illegal activities; to enforce our website terms and conditions; and to operate our systems properly, administer the website, or to protect ourselves or other website users. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organisations for the purposes of fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
Marketing
We would like to send you information about products and services of ours which may be of interest to you. If you have consented to receive marketing, you may opt out at a later date.
You have a right at any time to stop us from contacting you for marketing purposes. If you no longer wish to be contacted for marketing purposes, please email us at
info@budgepr.com
We are committed to ensuring that your information is secure. When you input any personal information into the website, we will use appropriate physical, electronic and managerial security measures to try to prevent that personal information from being accessed by unauthorised persons, and to ensure that you may input personal information safely. Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted to our website; any transmission is at your own risk.
Access to your information and correction
You have the right to request a copy of the information that we hold about you. If you would like a copy of some or all of your personal information, please email
info@budgepr.com
We want to make sure that your personal information is accurate and up to date. You may ask us to correct or remove information you think is inaccurate.
Who do we share your information with?
We will generally comply with requests for specific information from regulatory and law enforcement bodies where this is necessary and appropriate. Your information is also analysed internally to help us improve our services. This data sharing is in accordance with our Information Use and Privacy Policy and covered in the full privacy statement on our website.
Your rights under data protection law:
access to your information – you have the right to request a copy of the personal information that we hold about you.
correcting your information – we want to make sure that your personal information is accurate, complete and up to date. Therefore you may ask us to correct any personal information about you that you believe does not meet these standards.
deletion of your information – you have the right to ask us to delete personal information about you where:
you think that we no longer need to hold the information for the purposes for which it was originally obtained
we are using that information with your consent and you have withdrawn your consent – see Withdrawing consent to using your information below
you have a genuine objection to our use of your personal information – see Objecting to how we may use your information below
our use of your personal information is contrary to law or our other legal obligations.
Objecting to how we may use your information
You have the right at any time to tell us to stop using your personal information for direct marketing purposes.
Restricting how we may use your information
In some cases, you may ask us to restrict how we use your personal information. This right might apply, for example, where we are checking the accuracy of personal information that we hold about you or we are assessing the objection you have made to our use of your information. This right might also apply if we no longer have a basis for using your personal information but you don't want us to delete the data. Where this right is realistically applied will mean that we may only use the relevant personal information with your consent, for legal claims or where there are other public interest grounds to do so.
Withdrawing consent to use your information
Where we use your personal information with your consent you may withdraw that consent at any time and we will stop using your personal information for the purpose(s) for which consent was given.
Please contact us as stated above if you wish to exercise any of these rights.
