4. WHY WE NEED YOUR PERSONAL DATA

We need to process your personal data for a number of different reasons and this section explains our legal bases for processing. We also need to keep your personal data for as long as is necessary for us to operate our business and to comply with legal and regulatory obligations.

We rely on one or more of the following legal bases for processing personal data:

·         To perform our contract with you or to enter into a contract with you: we need to process your personal data to fulfil our contract with you or to assess whether to enter into a contract with you, including in selling and delivering goods and services to you.

·         To fulfil our legitimate interests or the legitimate interests of a third party: when we process personal data to fulfil our legitimate interests we will use it in a way in which you would reasonably expect and which the law allows. When we or third parties are relying on legitimate interests we will balance our interests against your interests and the privacy impact of the processing on you and we will process your personal data responsibly.

Examples of our legitimate interests are: fraud prevention, preventing and investigating crime, analysing the use of our Websites and cyber security.

·         To comply with legal obligations to which our business is subject: Wwe have to comply with relevant laws in order to provide services and products and we may need to process your personal data in order to comply with these legal obligations.

·         Consent: if we are relying on consent as our legal basis to process your personal data, you have the right to withdraw consent at any time.  You can ask us to stop sending you marketing messages at any time by contacting us at info@innisandgunn.com.  Please note that the law may require us to keep some personal data about you even if you have withdrawn consent e.g. records of online shop purchases.

We will keep your personal data for the purposes set out in this privacy policy and only for as long as any legal basis continues to apply. Below is a non-exhaustive list of some of the reasons we need to retain your personal data:

·                Ensuring we have relevant information in the event of any queries or complaints

·                Being able to identify if you have purchased a product which is subject to a product recall

·                Proof of age verification for alcohol purchases (the delivery courier will request this when making a delivery)

·                To assist with the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

5. HOW LONG WE KEEP YOUR DATA.

We need to keep personal data for different periods of time.

The length of time we need to keep your personal data will vary depending on the nature of the personal data and the reason we hold it. We will apply appropriate risk based measures to protect your personal data which may include pseudonymising or anonymising the personal data. If personal data is pseudonymised, this means it is altered so you are no longer identifiable, but we can re-identify you if we have a requirement to do so. If personal data is anonymised, it is altered so you are no longer identifiable, but can never be re-identified in the future.

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil a legally permitted purpose.

6. WHO WE TRANSFER DATA TO.

By law, transferring personal data to other organisations needs to take place with appropriate safeguards and you can be assured that we will only share the personal data that is needed for these organisations to be able to support what we do.

We may transfer your personal data to the following third parties:

·                Innis & Gunn Group: other companies within the Innis & Gunn group of companies

·                Technology service providers: our partners who provide IT and website services

·                Payment services providers: the secure third party payment platform used for purchases from our online shop (please note, when you make a payment, their own privacy policy and terms will apply when they process your payment card details)

·                Customer service providers: our partners who work with us to administer your account and provide you with any help you may need

·                Delivery companies: our couriers, parcel firms and mail firms who process or deliver your goods or services and manage any returns on our behalf

We will only transfer your personal data to third parties who adhere to appropriate data security standards and controls.

7. COUNTRIES YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL BE SENT TO AND WHY

As Innis & Gunn operates around the world your personal data may be transferred across international borders. This section explains when this might happen and how we protect your privacy and rights.  

EEA residents: your personal data will be used and stored within the European Economic Area (EEA).

Non-EEA residents: if you contact us from a country outside of the UK, when you provide information to us, you are providing it to Innis & Gunn in the UK. In order to answer contacts, queries and complaints, the information you provide to us may then be transferred to, processed in, and shared with our group companies or a distributor, agent or service partner located in other countries that help us deliver our services and assist in handling and resolving your query. This will, in certain situations, involve transferring your personal data outside the EEA to the country in which the group company, distributor, agent or service partner that will handle the response to your query is located; these other countries may not necessarily have data protection laws as comprehensive or protective as those in the UK.

Where this is the case, we will ensure that the transfer is subject to appropriate safeguards to protect your personal data and complies with applicable law. This may include having standard contractual clauses in place with the third party, the transfer being to a country which has been deemed by the European Commission to provide an adequate level of protection for the personal data (e.g. Canada) or, for the USA, under the EU-US Privacy Shield. For further information on how data can be transferred to other countries, please visit the European Commission website: https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection_en

Our website servers are in the UK and our back up storage is within the EEA.

8. YOUR RIGHTS

You have certain rights in respect of your personal data and we have processes to enable you to exercise these rights.

Right of Access: this is known as a Subject Access Request. If you want to know if we are processing personal data relating to you and to have access to any such personal data you contact us at info@innisandgunn.com.

Right to Rectification: if you believe that we hold inaccurate personal data about you, then you can either contact us at info@innisandgunn.com with your request or, if you have a customer account, update this information directly by logging in to your customer account and updating the relevant details. Depending on the type of personal data you believe is inaccurate, we may ask you for further proof to ensure that the personal data is being corrected properly.

Right to Erasure: you have a right to ask for your personal data to be erased in certain circumstances. However, this right does not apply where we have to comply with a legal obligation or where we need personal data for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. If you opt out of marketing communications or have previously opted out of marketing communications, we have to keep a record of your opt out to ensure that we do not contact you in the future.

Right to Restriction: you have a right to request that processing of personal data is restricted in certain circumstances. However, we will still continue to process the personal data for storage purposes, for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims or with your consent.

Right to Object: where we are relying on legitimate interests as a legal basis to process your data, you have a right to object to this processing on grounds relating to your particular situation.

Automated Processing: from time to time, we may use automated processing in relation to the information we hold about you to make recommendations of products and services we think you would be interested in and to improve your experience when you visit our website by making it relevant and tailored to you.

Right to Complain to the Information Commissioner: you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner and more details can be found on their website www.ico.org.uk.

If there is a change to your personal data at any time please let us know.
