About the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

The EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) came into force on 25 May 2018. GDPR strengthens the rights of individuals regarding their data and seeks to unify data protection laws across Europe, regardless of where the personal data is processed.

GDPR brings additional obligations regarding personal data protection that apply to our business. We welcome the opportunity to enhance our processes and systems to meet these requirements. 

GDPR Concerns Personal Data

Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (the data subject).

We Focus Mainly on Companies and Businesses

We operate in a business-to-business market. We collect and process information on companies and businesses when providing our products and services. However, in doing so, we also process data that could qualify as personal data under EU law. This includes information relating to an individual (a sole trader, a company director, a beneficial owner, or a professional contact). In addition, we store the contact details of the individuals we do business with and anyone who subscribes to our service.

We Protect Personal Data

Your trust in how we handle your data is important to us. We’re committed to using your information carefully and securely transparently. We invest in protecting your data in all areas, including when you use our websites applications or sign up for our email newsletters. We also work to protect your data should you engage our services as a customer, a contact person of our customer, trade with our customers, or when you do business with us as our supplier.

Privacy Statement 

Please see our Privacy Statement for further details on using your data. This features information we’re required to give concerning the processing of personal data under EU law. It includes an overview of what personal data we collect when we collect it, how we use such data, and how long we keep personal data. In this Privacy Statement, you can also find information on how to access and update your data and your rights as a data subject.
