This Privacy Notice explains how we use any personal information that we collect about you/ your business

What information do we collect about you?

We collect information about you when you engage us to supply case-note folders or associated goods. We may also collect information when you voluntarily complete client/ customer surveys or provide feedback to us.

Why do we need to collect and use your personal data?

The primary legal basis that we intend to use for the processing of your data is for the performance of our contract with you. The information that we collect about you is essential for us to be able to effectively carry out the services you require from us.

To fulfil our obligations in respect of Anti-Money Laundering and other Financial Crime, we may send your details to third party agencies for identity verification purposes.

How long do we keep your information?

During the course of our relationship with you we’ll retain personal data which is necessary to provide services to you. We’ll take all reasonable steps to keep your personal data up to date throughout our relationship.

We reserve the right to retain data for longer where we believe it’s in our legitimate interests to do so. In any case, we will review the retention of your data after six years from the date your relationship with us ends.
