Privacy notice issued by Camm Holdings LLP

 

The Data Protection Act 2018 (“DPA 2018”) and the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) impose legal obligations in connection with the processing of personal data.  Camm Holdings LLP is a data controller within the meaning of the GDPR and we process personal data to enable us to supply services to you, to fulfill our legal obligations and to enable us to invoice you for our services.

Our intended processing of personal data is necessary for the delivery of our services to you.

We may share your personal data with potential employers or employees, any third parties with whom you require or permit us to correspond, professional indemnity insurers and anyone else if compelled to do so by law.

As part of the services offered to you, the information which you give to us may be transferred to countries outside the European Union (“EU”). For example, some of our third-party providers for the software we use may be located outside of the EU.

When acting as a data controller and in accordance with recognised good practice within the recruitment sector we will retain all of our records relating to you for a minimum of six years.

Where we act as a data processor as defined in DPA 2018, we will delete or return all personal data to the data controller as agreed with the controller at the termination of the contract.

You have a right to request access to your personal data that we hold. Such requests are known as ‘subject access requests’ (“SARs”), which should be made in writing marked for the attention of Stephen Camm. 

DPA 2018 requires that we comply with a SAR promptly and in any event within one month of receipt. There are, however, some circumstances in which the law allows us to refuse to provide access to personal data in response to a SAR (eg if you have previously made a similar request and there has been little or no change to the data since we complied with the original request).

We will not charge you for dealing with a SAR. You can ask someone else to request information on your behalf – for example, a friend, relative or solicitor. We must have your authority to respond to a SAR made on your behalf. You can provide such authority by signing a letter which states that you authorise the person concerned to write to us for information about you, and/or receive our reply.

Where you are a data controller and we act for you as a data processor, we will assist you with SARs on the same basis as is set out above.

You have a right to obtain the rectification of any inaccurate personal data concerning you that we hold. You also have a right to have any incomplete personal data that we hold about you completed. Should you become aware that any personal data that we hold about you is inaccurate and/or incomplete, please inform us immediately so we can correct and/or complete it.

In certain circumstances you have a right to have the personal data that we hold about you erased. Further information is available on the ICO website (www.ico.org.uk).  If you would like your personal data to be erased, please inform us immediately and we will consider your request.  In certain circumstances we have the right to refuse to comply with a request for erasure. If applicable, we will supply you with the reasons for refusing your request.

In certain circumstances you have the right to ‘block’ or suppress the processing of personal data or to object to the processing of that information.  Further information is available on the ICO website (www.ico.org.uk).  Please inform us immediately if you want us to cease to process your information or you object to processing so that we can consider what action, if any, is appropriate.

In certain circumstances you have the right to be provided with the personal data that we hold about you in a machine-readable format. Further information is available on the ICO website (www.ico.org.uk).

The right to data portability only applies:

• to personal data an individual has provided to a controller;

• where the processing is based on the individual’s consent or for the performance of a contract; and

• when processing is carried out by automated means

We will respond to any data portability requests made to us without undue delay and within one month.  We may extend the period by a further two months where the request is complex or a number of requests are received but we will inform you within one month of the receipt of the request and explain why the extension is necessary.

We gather information about how users visit our websites using Google Analytics. It captures information about the pages you visit, the website in general, and what links you clicked on. It also captures IP address information to help us see where visitors are coming from. It does not store any personal information about you such as your name or address.  You can view the Google Analytics privacy policy here http://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/

Where you have consented to our processing of your personal data, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Please inform us immediately if you wish to withdraw your consent.

Please note:

• the withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of earlier processing

• if you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to continue to provide services to you

• even if you withdraw your consent, it may remain lawful for us to process your data on another legal basis (e.g. because we have a legal obligation to continue to process your data)

We do not intend to use automated decision-making in relation to your personal data.

If you have requested details of the information we hold about you and you are not happy with our response, or you think we have not complied with the GDPR or DPA 2018 in some other way, you can complain to us. Please send any complaints to Stephen Camm at stephen@cammconsulting.com. If you are not happy with our response, you have a right to lodge a complaint with the ICO (www.ico.org.uk).
