We do not seek to collect more personal information than is reasonably necessary to provide our services.

3. Special category data

HR activities can sometimes involve information that is considered special category data under the UK GDPR, such as information relating to health, disability or other protected information.

We will only process special category data where there is an appropriate legal basis and an applicable condition for processing under data protection law.

Where we are providing services to an organisation and processing special category data on its behalf, we will follow the client’s instructions and the terms of our agreement with that organisation.

Depending on the circumstances, we may rely on one or more of the following:

Contract

We may process your personal information where it is necessary to enter into or perform a contract with you or your organisation.

For example, this may include administering consultancy services, arranging training or processing payments.

10. International transfers

Some of our service providers may process personal information outside the United Kingdom.

Where personal data is transferred outside the UK, we will ensure that the transfer is made in accordance with applicable UK data protection law and that appropriate safeguards are in place where required.

These safeguards may include an adequacy decision, appropriate contractual protections or other lawful transfer mechanisms.

11. How long we keep your information

We will only retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including to meet legal, accounting and reporting requirements.

The length of time we retain information will depend on its nature and the reason we collected it.

For example:

  • Client and contractual records may be retained for the duration of the business relationship and for an appropriate period afterwards.
  • Financial and accounting records will generally be retained for the period required by applicable UK law.
  • Training and course administration records will generally be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to administer the course and maintain appropriate business records.
  • Marketing information will be retained until you unsubscribe or where appropriate for us to determine that it is no longer relevant.

Where personal information is no longer required, we will securely delete it or anonymise it.

12. How we protect your information

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against accidental loss, misuse, unauthorised access, alteration or disclosure.

These measures may include:

  • Appropriate access controls
  • Password protection and secure authentication
  • Secure cloud-based systems where appropriate
  • Limiting access to personal information to those who need it
  • Appropriate staff and contractor confidentiality requirements
