Disclosure of your information

We may share your personal information with any member company within the Power Team Group, including employees and consultants. Our employee’s and consultants sign a mandatory data protection document.

We may disclose your personal information to third parties:

if we or substantially all of its assets are acquired by a third party, in which case personal data held by us about our customers will be one of the transferred assets;
if we are under a duty to disclose or share your personal data in order to comply with any legal obligation, or in order to enforce or apply any agreements between you and us, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of us, our customers, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organisations for the purposes of fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

Sharing your data with third parties for their own purposes

We will only do this in very specific circumstances, for example:

For fraud management, we may share information about fraudulent or potentially fraudulent activity in our premises or systems. This may include sharing data about individuals with law enforcement bodies.

We may also be required to disclose your personal data to the police or other enforcement, regulatory or Government body, in your country of origin or elsewhere, upon a valid request to do so. These requests are assessed on a case-by-case basis and take the privacy of our customers into consideration.

We may, from time to time, expand, reduce or sell Power Team and this may involve the transfer of divisions or the whole business to new owners. If this happens, your personal data will, where relevant, be transferred to the new owner or controlling party, under the terms of this Privacy Notice.

Where we store your personal data

We store your personal data locally at our head office storage system which is protected with multi layered industry grade security. Access to this information is granted exclusively to the relevant employee (once the appropriate data protection documentation has been signed) and access point (laptop and/or computer). We take the secure storage of your personal data seriously, ensuring all reasonable and necessary security measures are put in place. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy.

How long will we keep your personal data?

Whenever we collect or process your personal data, we’ll only keep it for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.

At the end of that retention period, your data will either be deleted completely or anonymised, for example by aggregation with other data so that it can be used in a non-identifiable way for statistical analysis and business planning.

Your rights

You have the right to ask us not to process your personal data for marketing purposes. We will usually inform you (before collecting your data) if we intend to use your data for such purposes or if we intend to disclose your information to any third party for such purposes. You can exercise your right to prevent such processing by checking certain boxes where available on the forms we use to collect your data. You can also exercise the right at any time by contacting us at letstalk@power-team.co.uk

You have the right to request access to your data by the form of a “Data Subject Request” at no charge to yourself and have this provided to you in no more than 30 days.

You have the right to withdraw consent at any time.

You have the right erasure. At any point you may request that we erase or delete all and any personal information or data held on you where there is no compelling reason for its continued processing.

You have the right to rectification. At any point you may request that we correct or rectify any personal information or data on you held by ourselves.

You have the right to make a complaint and seek redress either through the Information Commission Officer (ICO) or through the courts. Details are available at: https://ico.org.uk/
