PRIVACY NOTICE
Privacy, in plain terms.
This notice explains what information Firthmark may receive through this website and through direct business correspondence, and how that information may be used.
01
Information Firthmark may receive
This website has no contact form and does not create user accounts. If you email Firthmark, the information received may include your name, role, organisation, email address, telephone number, the contents of your message and any information you choose to attach.
The website’s hosting provider may process necessary technical logs, such as an IP address, browser information, requested URL and time of access, to deliver, protect and maintain the site.
02
How information may be used
Information may be used to:
- respond to an enquiry or continue a requested discussion;
- understand a potential business requirement;
- maintain appropriate business correspondence and records;
- protect the website and associated systems; and
- meet legal, regulatory or security requirements.
Depending on the context, this processing may be necessary to take steps you request, support Firthmark’s legitimate business interests in responding and keeping records, or meet a legal obligation.
04
Retention and security
Information may be retained for as long as reasonably required to respond, maintain useful business correspondence, establish what was discussed, meet legal obligations or protect systems. Retention will depend on the nature of the enquiry and any continuing business relationship.
Reasonable steps will be taken to protect information, but no email service or website infrastructure can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
05
Your rights
UK data-protection law gives individuals rights over their personal information. Depending on the circumstances, these may include the right to ask for access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability or an objection to particular use.
To make a request, email aidan@firthmark.co.uk. Enough information may be requested to understand and verify the request. You can also raise a concern with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office.
