What is the lawful basis for processing your personal data?

In 2018, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) was introduced to strengthen data protection laws for individuals across the European Union (EU).

Following the UK’s exit from the EU, the GDPR has been retained in domestic law as the UK GDPR and is supported by an amended version of the DPA 2018.

Under the regulation, organisations must have a valid lawful basis in order to process personal data.

At ePC, we will process your personal data if you meet one (or more) of the following criteria:

• You have given your consent for the processing of your personal data. For example, you have submitted an enquiry form or opted to receive marketing communications from us. If you have consented to receive marketing, you may opt-out at a later date.
• The processing of your personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract. For example, a client who has had a technical support and maintenance agreement with us.
• Processing is necessary under the Legitimate Interests of our business unless these interests are overridden by the individual’s interests or fundamental rights. For example, we may process your personal data to send you direct marketing that we think you may have a legitimate interest in. Before we process your data, we will conduct a Legitimate Interests Assessment (LIA) to balance our interests against your rights as an individual. You may object at any time and we will exclude you from further processing.

How to opt-out of marketing communications from us?

If you do not want to receive information of this nature, please write to: ePartner Consulting Ltd, PO Box 1578, Lightwater, Surrey, GU20 5AR, UK.

We will write to you within 21 days of receiving the written notice of objection to confirm that the request has been complied with.
