Disclosure of your information

Some services that we provide require the involvement of third parties. We have carefully selected these third parties and taken steps to ensure that your personal information is adequately protected.

You agree that we have the right to share your personal information with the following third parties:

i) Sharing with our group companies

The personal information you provide on the websites is collected by Renlon Limited. However where you ask or indicate that we should do so (e.g. in an online form) or where we are otherwise legally permitted to do so in accordance with this privacy policy, we may transfer your personal information between and to our group companies. Group companies are our subsidiaries, our ultimate holding company and its subsidiaries, as defined in section 1159 of the UK Companies Act 2006, including Renlon Holdings Limited

When a group company intends to use your personal information for a new purpose, they will let you know about this.

ii) Sharing with our service providers

We may share your personal information with our third party service providers based in the UK, within the European Economic Area (“EEA”) and some located outside of the EEA who we engage to process the information that we collect from you on the websites or otherwise, and/or to host and maintain our websites, content or services, on our behalf and in accordance with this privacy policy.

Where we employ third party companies or individuals to process personal information provided by us (and not collected by them), they only use this personal information on our behalf and in line with our instructions and this privacy policy.

iii) Sharing with other selected third parties

We may share your personal information with selected third parties including:

business partners for the performance of any contract we enter into with you;
analytics and search engine providers that assist us in the improvement and optimisation of our websites;

We will disclose your personal information to third parties:

It is our policy to retain your personal information for the length of time required for the specific purpose or purposes for which it was collected, which are set out in this privacy policy. Where you have purchased our products or services, this will usually be 11 years from the date of our guarantee or the date we last provided any products or services to you if no guarantee was issued. However, on occasion we may be obliged to store some data for a longer time, for example, where a longer time period is required by applicable laws. In this case, we will ensure that your personal data will continue to be treated in accordance with this privacy policy.

For more information on how long cookies are stored, please refer to our cookie policy www.renlon.co.uk/cookie-policy.

Where we store your personal data

One of our external third party service providers is based outside the 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 ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

We will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission. For further details, see European Commission: Adequacy of the protection of personal data in non-EU countries.
Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe. For further details, see European Commission: Model contracts for the transfer of personal data to third countries.
Where we use providers based in the US, we may transfer data to them if they are part of the Privacy Shield which requires them to provide similar protection to personal data shared between the Europe and the US. For further details, see European Commission: EU-US Privacy Shield.

Please contact us if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data out of the EEA.

We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy.

All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of our websites, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our websites; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.

Your rights

You have the right to ask us not to process your personal data for marketing purposes. We will usually inform you (at the time of collecting your data) if we intend to use your data for such purposes. You can exercise your right to prevent such processing by checking certain boxes on the forms we use to collect your data. You can also exercise the right at any time by contacting us at survey@renlon.com.
