How and why we use personal data

Under the Data Protection Legislation, we can only use your personal data if we have a proper reason for doing so.

  1. Generally, we do not rely on consent as a legal basis for processing your personal data other than to:
  • place cookies on your device (please see our Cookies Notice (https://www.origamiagency.co.uk/cookies-notice) for further details);
  • send you our blogs, newsletters or other electronic marketing communication, if you requested or expressly agreed to receive such communication; and
  • respond to your enquiries.

Where your permission is required, we will ask you for such consent separately and clearly. You have the right to withdraw consent to marketing at any time by emailing us at hello@origamiagency.co.uk or using the ‘unsubscribe’ link in our marketing emails. Even if we are not required to obtain your consent for marketing purposes, you can still opt-out of receiving marketing communications at any time, so you are still in control.

  1. We will use your personal data if we need to do it to perform our obligations under a contract with you, or if it is necessary for a contract which we are about to enter with you. For example, if we need to:
  • provide our services to you; or
  • manage our relationship with you (e.g. to respond to your enquires or to notify you about changes to our services).

 

  1. Legitimate interests. We may process your personal data when we (or third party) have a legitimate reason to use it, so long as this is not overridden by your own rights and interests. For example:
  • to provide our products and services to, and manage our relationship with our customer or prospective customer whom you represent;
  • to administer and protect our business and this website (including troubleshooting, data analysis, testing, system maintenance, support, reporting and hosting of data);
  • to interact with you professionally (e.g. if you represent our client, supplier or business partner);
  • to manage our relationship with you;
  • to manage payments, fees, charges, and to collect debts which you may owe to us;
  • to deal with your enquiry unrelated to a contract which we may have with you;
  • to ask you to leave a review or complete a survey;
  • to send you our updates or other electronic marketing communications in respect of similar products or services to those which we had previously supplied to you or which you had previously enquired about;
  • to increase our business or promote our brand through delivering relevant website content and advertisements to you and marketing communication;
  • to measure or understand the effectiveness of the advertising we provide to you;
  • to improve our website, products, services, marketing, and customer relationships and understanding;
  • to conduct web analytics;
  • for the prevention and detection of fraud; and
  • for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

We may ask you to confirm or update your marketing preferences if you instruct us to provide further services in the future, or if there are changes in the law, regulation, or structure of our business.

  1. Legal obligation. We may process your personal data to comply with our legal obligation. For example, to:
  • notify you about changes to our terms or privacy policy;
  • address your complaint; and
  • comply with a request from a competent authority.

Who we share personal data with

We may share your information with third parties for the purposes set out in this notice.

We share your personal data with our suppliers which we use cloud-based platforms and tools to operate our business:

  • com Inc. based in Israel, website hosting providers;
  • Intuit based in the USA, providers of QuickBooks accounting software;
  • Google based in the USA, providers of Google Analytics website analytics software; and
  • Rocket Science based in the USA, providers of MailChimp email marketing software.

Transfers of data outside the European Economic Area are subject to special rules under the Data Protection Legislation. Those of our providers who are based in the US subscribe to the EU-US Privacy Shield framework. Transfers of personal data to Israel, and to US companies who subscribe to the EU-US Privacy Shield framework are deemed by the European Commission to provide an appropriate level of protection.

We may also:

  • disclose your personal data to professional advisers (e.g. lawyers, accountants, auditors or insurers) who provide professional services to us;
  • disclose your personal data to certain third parties if specifically requested or agreed with you (e.g. if you ask us to introduce you to a third party);
  • disclose and exchange certain information with law enforcement agencies and regulatory bodies to comply with our legal obligations; and
  • share some personal data with other parties, such as potential buyers of some or all of our business or during a re-structuring. Usually, information will be anonymised but this may not always be possible. The recipient of the information will be bound by confidentiality obligations.

How long we keep personal data

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for. For example, if:

  • you subscribe to our updates, we will hold your data for that purpose until you unsubscribe or otherwise tell us that you no longer wish to receive such communications;
  • you are or represent our prospective customer, we will keep your personal data for marketing purposes for two years from when we last heard from you, unless you opt-out from receiving marketing communications; and
  • we have a contract with you, we will generally retain your data for seven years after the termination of that contract.

In some circumstances we may anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

Your rights

You have a number of rights in relation to your personal data, which allow you to access and control your information in certain circumstances. You can exercise these rights free of charge, unless your request is manifestly unfounded or excessive (in which case we may charge a reasonable administrative fee or refuse to respond to such request).
