2. What Does This Notice Cover?
This Privacy Information explains how we use your personal data: how it is collected, how it is held, and how it is processed. It also explains your rights under the law relating to your personal data.
 

3. What is Personal Data?
Personal data is defined by the General Data Protection Regulation (EU Regulation 2016/679) (the “GDPR”) as ‘any information relating to an identifiable person who can be directly or indirectly identified in particular by reference to an identifier’.

Personal data is, in simpler terms, any information about you that enables you to be identified. Personal data covers obvious information such as your name and contact details, but it also covers less obvious information such as identification numbers, electronic location data, and other online identifiers.

The personal data that we use is set out in Part 5, below.

​

4. What Are My Rights?
Under the GDPR, you have the following rights, which we will always work to uphold:

The right to be informed about the collection and use of your personal data. This Privacy Notice has been created to advise on this information, however you may also contact us for more details as set out in Part 11.
The right to access the personal data we hold about you.
The right to have your personal data rectified if any of your personal data held by us is inaccurate or incomplete.
The right to be forgotten, i.e. the right to ask us to delete or otherwise dispose of any of your personal data that we have.
The right to restrict (i.e. prevent) the processing of your personal data.
The right to object to us using your personal data for a particular purpose or purposes.
The right to data portability. This means that you can ask us for a copy of your personal data held by us to re-use with another service or business in many cases.

For more information about our use of your personal data or exercising your rights as outlined above, please contact us using the details provided in Part 11. Further information about your rights can also be obtained from the Information Commissioner’s Office or your local Citizens Advice Bureau. If you have any cause for complaint about our use of your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office.

​

5. What Personal Data Do You Collect?
We may collect some or all of the following personal data (this may vary according to your relationship with us):

  • Name

  • Address

  • Email address

  • Telephone number

Information about your preferences relating to kitchen requirements;

​

Google Analytics
When someone visits turnwellkitchens.co.uk we use a third-party service, Google Analytics, to collect standard internet log information and details of visitor behaviour patterns. We do this to find out things such as the number of visitors to the various parts of the site. This information is only processed in a way which does not identify anyone. We do not make, and do not allow Google to make, any attempt to find out the identities of those visiting our website.


To advise you of any changes at Turnwell Kitchens.

With your permission and/or where permitted by law, we may also use your personal data for marketing purposes, which may include contacting you by email or post with information, news, and offers on our products or services. You will not be sent any unlawful marketing or spam. We will always work to fully protect your rights and comply with our obligations under the GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003, and you will always have the opportunity to opt-out.

If you opt out, we will no longer be able to provide goods or services to you or assist you with warranty queries. We may still need to retain some records that include your personal data for statutory reasons.

​

6. How Long Will You Keep My Personal Data?
We will not keep your personal data for any longer than is necessary in light of the reason(s) for which it was first collected. Your personal data will therefore be kept for the following periods (or, where there is no fixed period, the following factors will be used to determine how long it is kept):

Personal Data collected for the purpose of initial enquiries or quotations will be retained for up to 6 months after our last contact with you;

Personal Data collected for the purpose of a kitchen order will be retained in hard copy (paper files) for ten years after completion of your kitchen project.

Due to the high quality of our products, Personal Data collected for kitchen orders will be retained in soft copy (digital files) indefinitely, so that we can respond to customer requests for repair, maintenance and replacement of any part that might become defective over the life of the products supplied.

​

7. How and Where Do You Store or Transfer My Personal Data?
We will only store your personal data in the UK. This means that it will be fully protected under the GDPR.

Back Up Archives:

Should you request the erasure of your personal data, we will uphold the following processes in order to comply with your request:

  • Primary instances of your data in ‘in-house’ CRM systems will be erased with all due speed.

  • Your personal data may reside in backup archives that must be retained for a longer period of time – either because it is impractical to isolate individual personal data within the archive, or because we are required to retain data longer for contractual, legal or compliance reasons.

  • You can be assured that your personal data will not be restored back to our CRM systems (except in certain rare instances, e.g., the need to recover from a natural disaster or serious security breach). In such cases, your personal data may be restored from backups, but we will take the necessary steps to honour the initial request and erase the primary instance of the data again.

  • Backup archives containing personal data will be protected with strong encryption, so that even if criminals were able to steal the archive, its contents would remain useless to them.

  • Retention rules have been put in place so that personal data, for the purposes of products and services supplied, in backup archives is retained for a period of ten years.

​​

8. Do You Share My Personal Data?We will not share any of your personal data with any third parties for any purposes, subject to one important exception.

In some limited circumstances, we may be legally required to share certain personal data, which might include yours, for the purposes of health and safety law or if we are involved in legal proceedings or complying with legal obligations, a court order, or the instructions of a government authority.

We may sometimes contract with the following third parties to supply products and services to you on our behalf. These may include payment processing, invoicing, delivery, and marketing. In some cases, those third parties may require access to some or all of your personal data that we hold:

Delivery Services
Accounting Services
Your builder, architect, surveyor or Local Authority
Installers and other vetted subcontractors who need to attend site to install your kitchen

If any of your personal data is required by a third party, as described above, we will take steps to ensure that your personal data is handled safely, securely, and in accordance with your rights, our obligations, and the third party’s obligations under the law.

In some limited circumstances, we may be legally required to share certain personal data, which might include yours in order to comply with legal obligations, a court order, or the instructions of a government authority.

​

9. How Can I Access My Personal Data?
If you want to know what personal data we have about you, you can ask us for details of that personal data and for a copy of it (where any such personal data is held). This is known as a “subject access request”.

All subject access requests should be made in writing and sent to the email or postal addresses shown in Part 11.

There is not normally any charge for a subject access request. If your request is ‘manifestly unfounded or excessive’ (for example, if you make repetitive requests) a fee may be charged to cover our administrative costs in responding.

We will respond to your subject access request within 20 working days and, in any case, not more than one month of receiving it. Normally, we aim to provide a complete response, including a copy of your personal data within that time. In some cases, however, particularly if your request is more complex, more time may be required up to a maximum of three months from the date we receive your request. You will be kept fully informed of our progress.
