What information do we collect about you?

Information that you give to us

We collect personal data from you when you register on this website, place an order, sign up for our mailing list or fill out a web form. Where we ask for your data we will specify the purpose for which it is being requested, and we will not use this data for any other purpose, or store it for longer than is necessary to fulfill out contractual obligations to you, or where it is necessary for our legitimate interest or legal basis.

The categories of personal data we may request include your name, contact information (email, postal address and phone/mobile number), general information about you such as your experience with us, and our products and services. We may also keep copies of any correspondence you send us which may include personal data.

We collect the IP address of the device you use to connect to the Internet, the geographical location of your device, the browser you are using, the type of device you are using (tablet, mobile, desktop), the URL you came from and the web pages you access. We use this data to better understand how you use the website, and to improve your experience when using it.

How do we use your personal data?

We are required by law to provide you with information about the purposes for which we use your information and the legal justification for us to use that information. For example, there may be a legal justification for us to use your personal data where:

  • We need to use your information to perform a contract with you or to fulfill a request originated by you.
  • You have given your consent to us using your information.
  • Using your information is in our legitimate business interests (provided these interests are balanced against your rights).
  • We need to process your personal data to comply with legal obligations to which we are subject.

 

The table below sets out the different purposes for which we may use your personal data and the legal basis for each one. Note that the purposes for which we use your personal data may change from time to time, in which case we will update this policy.

How do we protect your personal data?

We use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software and Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.1 or higher to protect your online transactions. SSL/TLS encrypts the personal data you provide to us before travelling over the internet. We maintain appropriate administrative, technical and physical safeguards to protect the personal data you provide to us against accidental, unlawful or unauthorised destruction, loss, alteration, access, disclosure or use and other unlawful forms of processing.

Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password to access your account or other privileged areas of the website, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential.

Processing your payments – card security

When you place an order on this website your payment details are transmitted over an encrypted connection to our third-party payment processors. During this process you are redirected to the payment processor's website (in the case of SagePay this appears as an embedded "frame" within our website). Your card details are only seen and processed by these payment processors – we do not receive these details, only confirmation that payment was authorised or declined.

Your data protection rights

You have the following rights in relation to your personal data:

  • Access — you have the right to request a copy of the personal data we are processing about you, which we will provide back to you in electronic form. For your own privacy and security, in our discretion we may require you to prove your identity before providing the requested information. If you require multiple copies of your personal data, we may charge a reasonable administration fee where we are permitted to do so in accordance with the GDPR.
  • Rectification — you have the right to have incomplete or inaccurate personal data that we process about you rectified. Note that you can always make certain adjustments to certain personal data directly through your online account.
  • Deletion — you have the right to request that we delete personal data that we process about you, except we are not obligated to do so if we need to retain such data in order to comply with a legal obligation or to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
  • Restriction — you have the right to restrict our processing of your personal data where you believe such data to be inaccurate, our processing is unlawful or that we no longer need to process such data for a particular purpose, but where we are not able to delete the data due to a legal or other obligation or because you do not wish for us to delete it.
  • Portability — you have the right to obtain personal data we hold about you, in a structured, electronic format, and to transmit such data to another Data Controller, where this is (a) personal data which you have provided to us, and (b) if we are processing that data on the basis of your consent (such as for direct marketing communications) or to perform a contract with you.
  • Objection — where the legal justification for our processing of your personal data is our legitimate interest, you have the right to object to such processing on grounds relating to your particular situation. We will abide by your request unless we have compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests and rights, or if we need to continue to process the data for the establishment, exercise or defence of a legal claim.
  • Withdrawing Consent — if you have consented to our processing of your personal data, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time, free of charge. This includes cases where you wish to opt out from marketing messages that you receive from us. You can unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time by following the instructions in any individual message. The legality of the processing of your personal data prior to you withdrawing your consent remains unaffected by this.

You can make a request in relation to your personal data ("Subject Access Request") by contacting us by email at info@u-perform.co.uk, by phone at 0330 303 1995 or by post at the address shown at the top of this Privacy Policy.

Who do we share information with?

We do not disclose personal data to any third-party except where it is necessary to fulfill our contractual obligations to you, or to improve your experience whilst visiting the website, with our products and services, and the company as a whole.

Where personal data is disclosed we reveal only the minimum required to ensure the service provider is able to perform their duties, to facilitate your purchase or other interaction with our website and company.

For example: when you place an order or update the address book on your account we provide a "postcode lookup" tool which automatically fills in an address based on the postcode, or partial address, you enter. This is done as a convenience to you, to reduce the amount of typing that would otherwise be required. When you complete payment for an order, we submit the basic details of your order to the payment processor so that it is possible to identify your payment at a later date if you make an inquiry about it. In both these cases this exposure of data is necessary for us to perform our contractual obligations to you.

Use of cookies

Cookies are small text files that are downloaded and stored on your device when you visit most websites, including ours. These cookies allow a website to customise its behaviour and experience towards you, offer bespoke functionality and to improve your overall experience when using it. If you do not want cookies to be used you can disable them by configuring the relevant settings in your web browser. Please note that disabling cookies may restrict the functionality of the website, and limit what services we are able to provide to you.

Links to external websites

Our website may contain links to other third party websites that we believe are relevant to our products or services, or that we believe may be of interest to you. Unless otherwise stated these websites are not under our control and therefore are not covered by this Privacy Policy. When visiting any linked site you should exercise caution and consult any privacy statement that they provide before divulging any of your personal data to them.

Updates to this Privacy Policy

As our business changes from time to time, we sometimes need to make changes to the way we collect and use your personal information. Therefore, this Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. If we make changes to this Privacy Policy, we will notify you of these changes.

How long do we keep your personal data?

Your personal information is processed by us and/or our service providers only for the period necessary for the purposes for which the information is collected, or where we are relying upon your consent until you withdraw that consent. When we no longer need to use your information for those purposes or if we are relying on your consent where you withdraw that consent, we will remove it from our systems and records or take steps to anonymise it so that you can no longer be identified from it (unless we need to keep your information to comply with legal or regulatory obligations to which we are subject).
