If a change happens to our business, then the new owners may use your personal data in the same way as set out in this privacy policy.

 

We require all third parties with whom we share your personal data to respect your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the privacy and security obligations consistent with this policy and the applicable law. Where we share your personal data for the purpose of conducting our business, we take all reasonable steps to ensure that such third party enjoys a sound business reputation and provides at least the same level of privacy protection that we offer to our customers.

International Transfers.

Fiils Beauty Ltd is based in the United kingdom (UK). However, we may have to share your personal data with third parties located outside of the UK, or process your data ourselves, directly or through our affiliates, outside of the UK. Any transfers made will be in compliance with all aspects of the UK Data Protection Act (DPA) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

 

When we do transfer your personal data out of the UK, we will ensure that your personal data is transferred in accordance with the legal requirements, and in particular the GDPR. This means that, where your personal data is sent outside the UK, we shall be:

 

  • Transferring your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the UK. For further details, see the List of countries which were provided adequate level of protection; or
  • Entering into specific contracts approved by the United Kingdom which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe.
  • Where  we use providers based in other countries, we shall check if they are part of the Privacy Shield which requires them to provide similar protection to personal data shared between UK and other countries.

 

As permitted under the GDPR, please note however that it might be the case where neither of the above applies, but the international transfer to a particular country of personal data can benefit from a legal derogation/exception such as in one of the following situations:

The international transfer:

  • Is necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims;
  • Is necessary for the performance of the contract concluded between us and a third party in your interest;
  • Is necessary for the performance of the contract between you and us, or pre-contractual steps taken at your request;
  • Is necessary for important reasons of public interest, or is in your vital interest; or
  • You have given us your explicit and informed consent for such an international transfer.

 

Please contact us at [email protected] if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data out of the UK.

 

Data Security.

Unfortunately, no data transfer over the Internet or any other network can be guaranteed as entirely secure, but we take appropriate steps to try to protect your personal data. We have put in place appropriate technical and organisational security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they are subject to a strict duty of confidentiality.

 

We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and competent regulators of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

 

How long do we keep your personal data for (referred to as ‘data retention’)?

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for as set out in this policy, or for as long as we reasonably consider necessary to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights. In any event, we shall retain your personal data in accordance with the applicable statutory and regulatory requirements.

 

The specific statutory and regulatory criteria used to determine these retention periods include but are not limited to:

 

  • Our obligation of compliance with the statutory retention periods for accounting records, as set out by the Companies Act and the HM Revenues and Customs.

 

Other commercially justifiable criteria may include, among others, our need to comply with the requirements of our professional indemnity insurer, our need to keep your personal data as long as necessary to resolve any query, complaint or dispute, our need to keep your personal data for as long as you might legally bring claims against us, and our need to enable us to provide you with our products and services. If you are an unsuccessful job applicant, we will keep your personal data for 6 months unless you ask us in writing to delete it sooner than that.

 

Please contact us if you want further information on the specific retention mechanism used in relation to a specific type of your personal data.

Your Rights and Duties.

 

Your duties to inform us of changes.

It is important that the personal data that we hold is accurate and current. If you have a business relationship with us and you have provided us with personal data, or you have provided us with personal data on behalf of someone else, you are required to inform us as soon as possible if that personal data changes.

 

Your rights.

You have the following rights in relation to the data we collect about you:

 

  • Right of access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables you, among others, to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.
  • Right to rectification of inaccurate and completion of incomplete personal data. This enables you to have any inaccurate or incomplete information we hold about you rectified or completed respectively.
  • Right to object to processing of your personal data under specific conditions.
  • Right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects or significantly affects you.

  • Right to the restriction of processing of your personal data under specific conditions.
  • Right  to the transfer of your personal data to another party who is a data controller (“data portability”). Please note that exceptions might apply.

No fee usually required.

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

 

What we may need from you.

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

 

Response Time.

We will respond to all legitimate requests without undue delays and within one month of receipt of your request.

 

Furthermore, you also have the right to make a complaint at any time. If you would like to make a complaint, please contact us at [email protected]. You also have a right to file a complaint to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection issues (www.ico.org.uk).

 

Changes to the Privacy Policy.

This Privacy Policy does not form part of any contract with us and we reserve the right to change it any time. Any changes to this policy will be posted on our website and, where appropriate, we will notify you by email. This policy was last updated in January 2021.
